bosch dishwasher model shy56a05uc/14 - wont start

[vudutu]

My wonderful dishwasher decided this morning to not startup. Instead of the soothing sound of the drain pump then filling there is a blinking red light a regular buzz that comes and goes. What to check next?

Found this reset procedure, wondering if this is the issue, will try when I get home

• Open the dishwasher door sufficiently to see the control buttons, then hold the two buttons with labels "Cancel Drain" and press for 3 seconds.
• Close the door. Wait nearly 1 minute for the dishwasher to complete the cycle.
• Open the door and hold the "ON/OFF" toggle.

Possibly something stuck in your drain pump?

Should you decide to mess with this make sure the power is disconnected!

Drain pumps are mounted to sumps in the front of dishwashers -- they’re easily accessible from the front of dishwashers by removing toe kicks. Removing & installing drain pump: Remove toe kick, then pull up terminal cover and disconnect wires.  For easier access, remove base cover 1st. To remove pump, push latch (on circular collar) & rotate pump clockwise (cw).  To install new pump, insert @ 2:00 position & rotate counterclockwise (ccw). Clean water & debris from base, then check float operation. Connect wires, then install base cover & toe kick.
