We have a Sears Kenmore 587.15252402 dishwasher that _sometimes_ decides to stop mid-cycle with lights flashing as if there was a power outage (high temp, heat dry). I've checked and double-checked all power connections to the unit, and they all seem clear.

Today it stopped mid-cycle flashing all the cycle lights (washing, drying, clean, santitizing).

Each time, I'm able to press the start/cancel button to drain out the unit and start a fresh cycle.

Sometimes the unit will work for days, sometimes you can attempt to run a cycle 5 times in a row and it won't work. There is no pattern as to when it stops in the cycle... sometimes within 5 minutes, sometimes an hour into the cycle.

Service help line had me drop the power at the breaker for a few minutes and power it back on, but that didn't help the issue.

Thoughts? Suggestions?

Hi,

It sounds like a control board problem.

Here is a new control board for your model:
