Dishwasher Cycle Won T Start Dishwasher

Chosen Solution

My Whirlpool dishwasher cycle won’t start. When I turn the power button on, the machine lights up. However when I press the start button to start any cycle, nothing happens. Any ideas what the problem is? Thanks.

Hi @mpmitch , What is the model number of the dishwasher? Check that the door latch switch is operating properly. Usually when the door switch isn’t closed the dishwasher won’t start because the control board thinks that the door is open.
