We are having the same issue as in this thread:

We did replace the control board. It's a little more responsive but but the top control panel still isn't working right. My husband is able to get it started but it only runs 15 minutes then all 3 lights go on again. Please help!

Do you have the exact same model number LFID2426TF2A

The model number tag is located inside the door on the tub frame.

Thanks! I moved your posts to your own thread, since your model number was different.

Here's the tech. data sheet: https://ecommcdnprod.azureedge.net/...oduct_support/FFI/FFID2426TW3A/A02841501B.pdf

Do the WATER/SERVICE TEST and let it run all the way through.

If that does not resolve it, then its the switch assembly that's the culprit.

Here's the switch assembly for your model:

Another member had this same problem and the new switch assembly fixed his, look here:

What is the power failure mode? What is the idle failure mode? From searching online, power failure mode is right after you turn the breaker back on, and all the lights are lit up. That didn't work. It seemed to be thinking for 10-15 seconds then all 3 lights started flashing again. Ill check out the switch assembly. Thanks.

What is the power failure mode?
OPTION LED’s Flashing- When ALL LED’s are flashing this indicates power failure has occurred. Press START/CANCEL pad and re-select desired options and cycles.

The water/service test, (WST) is a special function initiated from the power failure mode or idle mode. While in power failure mode - simultaneously press the AIR DRY and START/CANCEL pads for 1 1 /2 seconds. While in Idle Mode, simultaneously press HI-TEMP WASH and START/CANCEL pads for 6 seconds. The dishwasher will then step through the test cycle per the chart. Pushing the START/CANCEL pad will advance the dishwasher to the next step.

What is the idle failure mode?
It doesn't mention idle failure mode, just idle mode, and it doesn't even say the conditions of what that would be.

Ill check out the switch assembly.
Ok, sounds good.

I am having the same issue. Our dishwasher is maybe 2 years old. I have tried resetting the breaker, change the touchpad, and door latch. When I flip the breaker, I can only press "Heavy Wash". No other program will respond. After I press Heavy Wash, the start button blinks but is unresponsive. It will stay like that until the 3 blinking lights start up again. I tried the WST and nothing worked. Any other suggestions?

If so, Its possibly a faulty control board then.

Another member was having this similar issue:

Here's the control board for your model:

Yes, I have the same model. I have given in and requested a repairman come take a look.

After switching out the touchpad, and door latch I finally resolved the issue. It was the switch assembly 5304518467. Replaced that and now it works like a champ. Hope this helps resolve others issues with this dishwasher.
