Hope I'm not the only one who wasn't aware of this.
Dishwasher wouldn't let water come in, and the little lights on the front were flashing strangly. Obviously a controller problem, and beyond me.
Called the repair guy. He came out, and asked me to turn off the circuit breaker for 3 minutes, then turn back on. That "fixed" it- he said most appliances are computer controlled now, not sequencers or timers like in the past. When they get screwy, "reboot" by turning breaker off (or unplugging, if you can). Then turn back on, and test to see if it works. If not, THEN call the repairman.
I'll remember that- and the 94 bucks it cost for the education.
