⚠️ Safety Warning: Appliance repair involves electricity, gas, and moving parts. Always disconnect power before working on any appliance.
Error Code: ALL CYCLE AND OPTION LIGHTS FLASHING Difficulty: Hard
Problem: The cycle has been suspended, usually because the door was opened during operation.
How to Fix ALL CYCLE AND OPTION LIGHTS FLASHING Error (Step-by-Step)
- Begin by closing the dishwasher door firmly and pressing the ‘Start/Resume’ button to see if the cycle continues. This is the most common reason for this alert.
- If the lights continue flashing, perform a power reset. Turn off the circuit breaker that supplies power to the dishwasher for 5-10 minutes.
- Restore power and try to start a new cycle. If the error persists, it may indicate a faulty door latch or control board.
- Turn the power off at the circuit breaker again for safety.
- Open the dishwasher door and locate the main electronic control board, usually found behind the lower kickplate or within the door panel itself.
- Carefully disconnect the wire harnesses from the old board, taking a picture first to remember their placement. Remove the old board.
- Install the new control board (W11613566 or W10814355), reconnect the wires, and reassemble the dishwasher.
- Turn the power back on and test the dishwasher and confirm the error stays cleared during a full test cycle.
