i want to apologize for my screen name being a washing machine, i couldn't figure out how to change it. but anyways, i am fed up with the warranty company and this repair tech. i decided not to attempt to repair my dishwasher since i did buy the extended warranty. the warranty company does not have a tech within a couple hours of me, so they asked me to hire my own and they would pay for it. there are a couple techs in the area but they only work on the machines they sell. the only guy i found, finally came out after a month of trying to meet up, didn't really look at the unit and said the computer boards (2 of them need to be changed). this was three months ago, i find it hard to believe these items are on back order for this long. it started acting up 8 months ago by not turning on. the start reset button would flash red and then turn off and nothing would happen. one day it started working and ran fine for a couple months and then went out again doing the same thing. i tried unpluging it to maybe reset it (rule out the stupid stuff), but to no avail. it looks to me like the door is not closing all the way, so i removed the door latch and it seems to be working fine. the plastic cup that the metal tab flips, flips just fine, and i get continuity when it does. i am not sure where to take it from here, a couple of the lights on the door light up, but none of the buttons work. is there a diagnostic test that can be ran to find some codes? any help would be great.
