Dishwasher starts but quits in a few minutes. The control panel is blank when this happens.
Hello Richard and thank you for writing.
It certainly sounds like it could be a faulty door latch PS8770043, you should check for signs of damage, and replace if necessary. We hope this helps. Please contact us anytime.
The dishwasher will not start Greenlight blinking 4 times then pause then blinks 4 times

Not draining fully after recent washes. Previously I was able to turn on "drain "and it finished draining. Now, when I press "drain" the pump can be heard going but nothing coming out.
Am hoping it's a clogged hose somewhere and not pump.
Hi Bo, thank you for reaching out. Based on the description that you have provided, we would recommend making sure that the drain hose is not clogged. If the drain hose is clogged, the water will not drain from the dishwasher. Also, make sure that the pump filter is clean, as it may prevent the dishwasher from draining properly. If that is not causing the issue, then the issue is most probably with the drain pump, part number PS11753379, which may need to be checked. If the drain pump is faulty, you may need to replace it. We hope this solves your problem!
Hello,
Initially dishwasher didn't drain fully, but now doesn't fill with water. So far I've replaced the drain pump, overfill switch (because it was cheap) and fill valve. I can hear the pump trying to work but still no water incoming. Not sure if its the inlet pump or a control board issue?
Thanks! Doug
Hello Doug, Thank you for writing. If the Inlet Fill Valve was already replaced and did not fix the issue, you may have a faulty switch in the Door Latch or Control Board. Thank you for the inquiry, good luck with the repair!

Replacement was pretty easy after figuring out how to unsnap/unlock the old pieces. Tools only used to do a little prying and poking, but really aren't needed. Everything either snaps or slides together. Piece of cake

Pulled dishwasher from under counter, attached link to spring, hooked spring back into frame/chassis, threaded link through pulleys, attached other end of link onto door, reinstalled dishwasher under counter. All's well. Note-I purchased an extra link anticipating that the other one will fail. They're cheap enough.

I took the broken basket adjuster off and then attached the new one. It wasn't too difficult, however some removal instructions and re-install instructions( or just a picture supplied) would have been helpful. This isn't an issue for a mechanically inclined person, but would be a challenge for someone that isn't. Thanks.
