I have a Kenmore Elite Ultra wash quiet guard dishwasher and the right 3 buttons will now not work when pressed (delay, cancel and start).
I have put into the forced cycle (normal wash / heated dry etc) and all the lights come on for everything (including the right 3) but if I hit cancel, it won't stop.
When this maintenance cycle finishes the 3 right buttons will still not work (all other buttons work fine and light comes on when pressed).
Any help of what I need to replace would be great. I took panel off but couldn't see any loose connections.

It sounds like some water and dirt got onto keypad. Remove parts until you can peel off rubber keypad and clean surface on circuit board and on rubber keypad with soap and water and then alcohol. Make sure to turn off power first. If keypad does not have rubber cover it is a different type and you cannot clean it as easily. The rubber cover is like the ones on remote controls which are cleaned the same way.
