Thread: Kenmore Cycle light issues

  1. #1

    Question Kenmore Cycle light issues

    Model Number: 665.13473K902
    Brand: Sears Kenmore
    Age: 1-5 years

    Good evening everyone, this is my first post so bare with me please.

    I recently witnessed my Kenmore 665.13473K902 display acting up but it seems like the cycle is running normally?

    we almost always use the normal wash cycle with no drying cycle, but now when i select any cycle the 'Drying' light comes on as soon as i start the normal wash cycle and after a few minutes the 'delay' timmer for 4 hrs light illuminates also.

    any help?

    When those lights came on did it delay the dishwasher from starting and dry the dishes at the end of the cycle?

    no it did not appear to. It seems like the cycle continues on but i can't tell if the drying element is actually activated when the light turns on.
    and the 4hr delay doesn't appear to affect the cycle either. It completes the wash and the 'Clean' light comes on at the end.

    Do all of the buttons on the dishwasher seem to work and respond correctly? Do the delay and drying lights continue to light up still or did it only happen the one time?

    I just did more tests thanks to your reply and i believe the delay worked a couple days ago but as of tonight the delay function no longer works in any mode.

    i'm starting to think the board is on it's last legs?

    all the buttons work (drying light lights up when the wash starts) except for the delay function.

    The problem could either be with the touchpad control panel or the control board. We typically see more failures of the touchpad control panel than the main control board. If you pull off the bottom toe panel of the dishwasher, there is a tech sheet in a plastic sleeve on the back side of this panel. The tech sheet usually has a test procedure that you can do to try to narrow down which part is bad.
