FIXED GE Dishwasher GDT545PSJ6SS UI buttons not working

Hello!

I have a GE GDT545PSJ6SS, never heard any beeps, but the LED on the control board was rapidly blinking. I replaced the UI and set the personality accordingly. But unfortunately the buttons on my new UI don’t work appropriately. Pressing one button controls a totally different function - I.e. if I hit steam it’s actually maybe start, or select cycle does nothing, etc. I’ve take the door down and apart twice now. I attempted to attach a movie as to what I mean. Any input?

Thanks

Added complete model number

We would need the complete model number first. Read it from the model number tag.

Click here: Appliance Parts

Then you will see a link that says: How to find a model number.

Hey Jake. It’s GDT545PSJ6SS

Thanks!

Double check the personality jumpers, it doesn't seem like you have them set properly per your model number, did you follow the instructions that came with it? Take a photo of how you set them and attach the photo in your next post.

Here's the user interface(UI) board for your model: WD21X31910 Kit Svc Ui Top Logic

Yes, here is how I have it set up! I used the directions included with the part, which I threw away at this point, but I believe I remember it being personality 14. Pictures below. I figured it must have been something inappropriately positioned, but have the personality lined up properly from what I can tell.

Ok good, your personality is 14 per the first 6 digits of your model number, looks like the personality jumpers are set properly, so the UI Board is likely defective.

Look here:

FIXED - ADT521PGJ2WS GE Dishwasher Dead, No Power, Does Not Run

I tried resetting the circuit breaker and checking the wire nuts, power connection. Pressing Cycle Time and Start for 5 seconds does nothing. I dropped down the CSM Module and the Service light is steady green. I checked the power to J722 pin 2 black/green to pin 5 yellow/black which is right...

Mine is the same scenario as that which you linked. My old UI did not have the jumpers but did have the square spot on “1” as mentioned in that post!

So recommend getting a replacement? I noticed you linked the appropriate product on another users post a while back but they were sold out from your recommended supplier. Looks like they may be back in stock now tho.

Yes, because it should be working properly, you have the jumpers set properly.

I noticed you linked the appropriate product on another users post a while back but they were sold out from your recommended supplier. Looks like they may be back in stock now tho.

That is correct, when I just clicked the link to the UI Board I posted above in post #4 it shows in-stock.

Thanks Jake. I’ll contact for a return and order a new one from link you supplied.

 

[Jake]

Ok sounds good, let us know how it goes.

Just wanted you to know Jake, the first one was a dud, second one worked perfectly

 

[Jake]

Excellent, glad to hear the second UI Board fixed it.

Thanks for the update!
