FIXED GDT665SSN2SS GE Dishwasher stops at dry cycle

I have a 3 yr old GE dishwasher which has been working great until now.

When running any cycle- the washer fills with water, rinses, washes, rinses again, drains.... then it stops. The front light (normally amber) is off and the top panel appears to be reset as if its waiting to run the next load.

Things I noted:
-when opening the door during wash, there's plenty of water.
-The water is hot and if I open quick enough, I see water squirting out of the moving arms.
-The dispenser door opens normally during the cycle and the dishes are essentially clean when it stops, just wet.
-All buttons and electrical seem to be working properly.

In my non-professional opinion the stop appears to happen just before the dry cycle begins. I'm willing to try light troubleshooting/repair but if it gets too involved, will call in a pro. Thanks for any advice!

I'd clean the pressure sensor first and see if that resolves it.

This thread is similar to your model, and uses that exact same pressure sensor your model does:

FIXED - GE Dishwasher GDP665SYN2FS shutting off halfway through

Our fairly new dishwasher was shutting off halfway through cycle. After reading a few threads here, I tried the easiest applicable solution - cleaning the pressure sensor. That did it! Big thank you for all the tips 'n tricks here

Just follow the video in that thread to remove the pressure sensor and clean it.

Thank you! I pulled and cleaned the sensor. Running a light cycle now and all appears to be well.

Excellent, glad to hear that.
