The Kenmore Ultra Wash is a large capacity dishwasher manufactured by the Whirlpool Corporation and sold in Sears department stores. It is designed to be energy-efficient and offers six cycle options. To minimize noise during operation, the Ultra Wash dishwasher utilizes Kenmore’s Quiet Guard 2 technology. If you notice that the lights on the control panel are continually flashing, it indicates that the control panel needs to be reset. This may also signal a problem with the control panel circuit board. Instead of immediately scheduling a service appointment with Kenmore or Sears, you can try resetting the control panel yourself by following these simple steps.
Step 1
Prior to resetting the control panel, you need to unlock it. Locate the “Heated Dry” button on the control panel and hold it down for four seconds to unlock the panel.
Step 2
Next, press the following sequence of buttons on the control panel in quick succession: “Heated Dry,” “Normal Wash,” “Heated Dry,” and “Normal Wash.”
Step 3
Allow the dishwasher to undergo a brief diagnostic test.
Step 4
Once the diagnostic test is complete, press the “Cancel/Drain” button to reset the control panel of the dishwasher.
