Viking Cycle Interruption / Control or Sensor Issue

Dishwasher stops mid-cycle and will not advance, but no error code is displayed.

This repair may involve working with high voltage components or water connections. Always unplug the appliance before removing any panels.

If you are not confident in your ability to perform this repair safely, we strongly recommend contacting a professional technician.

Possible Causes

Intermittent door switch, Overheating causing thermal cutoff, Faulty NTC sensor, Main control board glitch

Safety first: Turn off power before accessing internal components.

Check door latch: Ensure the door is not flexing or unlatching during operation. Replace the Viking latch if loose.
Inspect for overheating: Check the high-limit thermostat and thermal cutoff for signs of tripping or damage.
Reset control: Turn off the breaker for 5–10 minutes to reset the control. If the issue recurs at the same point in the cycle, suspect a sensor or board fault.
Test NTC sensor: Measure resistance and compare to Viking specs. Replace if out of range.
