It's taken me 6 years to reach this point, but, I can indulge, occasionally, while still maintaining control and staying within my caloric restraints. What I can't do, though, is have boxes around after the fact.
I know, Captain obvious being unbelievably obvious here, but, I thought I was okay with having this stuff visible, but, I'm not.

After a few consecutive runs, perhaps around 3, my dishwasher stops, midcycle, and the pots and pans light blinks. If I open and shut the washer, it attempts to continue, but fails in about 3 seconds. If I open and close it AND then hit the cancel button every 10 seconds, it will continue.
Based on other research, I think I might have a pots and pans button that is triggering on it's own AND remaining pressed, and because it's pressed, it's locking everything else out. But this doesn't explain the freezing.
As far as I can tell, I don't think I can buy a control panel for this dishwasher. I would really like to coax some more time out of her, since buying a new dishwasher is such an incredible ordeal. Other than this potential control panel issue, this is absolutely the devil that I know- well.

Recently replaced agitator dogs. The grinding points me towards coupling, or maybe the clutch, but, both are outside the tub, which doesn't explain the black debris (small shards of black plastic).
Obviously, I can take it apart to see what's going on, but, ideally, I'd like to have the part in hand before I start taking it apart, since space is tight and I can't have it disassembled while the part ships.
