I'm having the same issue with my GE Triton XL model # GSD 6300 and would like to know the answer.

had a local repair guy come fix it--there are two circuit boards in the dishwasher--the smaller one was fried-you could see the black marks from power surge / lightening---you take off the front of the washer to access--turn off power first

klynchmerlin responds:
I turned off the power first (of course!), took off the front panel of the dishwasher door, and disconnected and removed the control module. I snapped opened the control module (the mother board) to examine the circuitry. There were no obvious signs of a surge or a burn-out. My question is: I need to know if there is some kind of instrument (like a volt-meter but NOT a volt meter) that measures the continuity of the signal in a control module. I do not want to order a new module if the one I have is still good. If the control module is good, then the problem lies elsewhere. Anyone?

I am not sure what all this stuff is called but there are two boards that can go bad in this unit-my repair buy brought one that he thought it would be but it ended up being the other one (it was small about 8 inches long by about 4 inches----the other one is much longer and I think fits behind the buttons-I think it could be either one
