Viking Dishwasher Control Panel Fault

A Viking dishwasher control panel fault presents as buttons that do not respond when pressed, erratic behavior (random cycles starting or stopping), or a completely blank display despite the dishwasher having power. Control panel faults can originate from the user interface panel, the ribbon cable connecting the panel to the control board, or the control board itself.
