    Kenmore dishwasher not working. Lights blinking, tries but won't work
    I have a Kenmore 66516712000 dishwasher. Tonight my daughter's bathtub was on the counter above it and the seam cracked letting a baby bath full of water drip down the counter and into the dishwasher. Now it has various lights blinking (Cancel is on, and turns on though I did not ask it too) other lights have also been on like normal, etc. though I have not asked it and a strange burning smell is detected, seems like it tries to fill but does not.. when we hit cancel it does not cancel. So I kept it slightly ajar to keep it from running.. Any ideas what it is.. it's about 7 years old.. so I am wondering if I should get it repaired, or just buy a whole new one? Thanks

    Sounds like water got into the circuit board. The board will cost $150-175 plus labor. Being it is 7 yrs old cost may help you decide as to repair or replace
