Why does the dishwasher timer get stuck at 1:07 and stay running overnight without completing wash cycle? What error codes should I be looking for if I put it in diagnostic mode? What does each possible error code mean?
For model number MDB4949SDH0
PartSelect logo
Hello Ben, thank you for getting in touch. Based on our research, we recommend you check the door latch, part number PS11756967, and the user interface board, part number PS10062092. If the problem still persists, you may have to replace the control board, part number PS10062738. A possible error code you could encounter during the diagnostic mode is F6E1. This error code indicates that there may be a problem with the control board, the user interface, or the associated wiring. We hope this information helps!

I have error codes that include F6 E4 F3 E2 F6E6 F-E- And my dishwasher never completes washing cycle and the timer does not advance after 1:07 and runs all night with 1:07 displayed that entire time. I made sure to level the dishwasher and have replaced the Turbidity sensor thinking that would help, but it still have these codes and problems continue mentioned above
For model number MDB4949SDH0

Hello Ben, thank you for reaching out to PartSelect. Error code FE indicates a Fill Error. The appliance could be overfilled with water. We would recommend checking the water inlet valve, part number PS11752927. The F3E2 error code is indicating a water temperature issue which can be resolved by replacing the heating element, part number PS9494999. The F6 E6 is a water temperature code that means the incoming water is too cold. It is also possible that it does not detect any incoming water despite the water inlet valve being open. If replacing all these parts does not resolve all errors, we would suggest replacing the control board, part number PS10062738. We hope this information helps!

Replaced Hinge Link
Pulled dishwasher from under counter, attached link to spring, hooked spring back into frame/chassis, threaded link through pulleys, attached other end of link onto door, reinstalled dishwasher under counter. All's well. Note-I purchased an extra link anticipating that the other one will fail. They're cheap enough.

dishwasher not draining after wash cycle
Caviat: The actual repair is less than 15 minutes, but I spent a lot of time playing with it before I figured out it was that easy and fast. You don't need to remove the dishwasher from the counter to do this. And it will probably help to look at the new part closely so you can understand where the retainer clip is to press it and release the old pump.

First remove the water from the dishwasher pan that would not drain with a wet/dry vac. Otherwise the water will all drain on the floor when you remove the pump. Then remove the two screws on the kickplate on the front of the unit below the door. Remove the kickplate/maintainence access cover. The drain pump is on the right about 8 inches in. Using two hands you grasp the drain pump with your right hand and use the left hand to push the retaining clip down. Then the drain pump will rotate 1/4 turn counterclockwise and can be removed without pulling the dishwasher out. There is likely to be some water leak out that was traped in the pump housing that you can not reach with the vac. Disconnect the wire. Connect the wire to the new pump, put it in place and 1/4 turn clockwise to install it. Replace the kickplate and you're done.

Door spring link broken
1. Open the dishwasher and remove the two plastic grommets about halfway down on either side of the opening. Then remove the two screws under the grommets.

2. Remove the kick plate under the door. May have to lower unit by turning the feet using the adjustable wrench.

3. Make sure you have enough slack in the water input line and electrical wiring that you can pull the dishwasher out about 12 inches or more.

4. There is a spring and nylon rope link on both sides of the unit. Probably just one link is broken, but the replacement comes with two, so you can replace both or save one as a spare. Look at the good side and it should be pretty self explanatory how it attaches. I found it easiest to first thread the link around the lower pulley, then attach the link to the spring, then spring to the rear support, then the link to the door.

5. Reverse (2 to 1) to reinstall the dishwasher.
