This error means the main control board and the user interface are not the correct matched pair for the model. This can happen after a repair with the wrong part.
Verify the part numbers of both the main control board (usually at the base) and the user interface (in the door/console).
Order and install the correct, matching component(s) for your specific dishwasher model number.
Replacing either board involves accessing it, carefully swapping wire harnesses, and reassembling.
