Reason #1 - These are electronic switches that have a button and wire terminals on each end and a set of contacts inside. This is located within the latch assembly, which is found in the control panel. If the dishwasher won’t start, it could be that the switch is faulty and the unit thinks the door is open, so it will not engage.

Reason #2 - Thermal Fuse: Some electronic-controlled dishwashers have a thermal fuse that protects the control board. This is normally located on the top of the circuit board and includes two wires attached to the fuse. If this part fails, the board will not get power and therefore the dishwasher will be unable to start.

Reason #3 - Door Latch: The door latch assembly is responsible for keeping the door closed and uses the latch strike to secure the dishwasher door during operation. This part is located at the top of the door near the control board. There are several models and some will include just the latch, while others will include the latch strike and the door switches built into the unit.

Reason #4 - On/Off Switch: If the on/off switch on the dishwasher has failed, the unit will not be able to operate. These usually have a plastic body and wire terminals to hook up the electrical connections.

Reason #5 - Touchpad: The touchpad is used to make the cycle selections which then sends the signal to the control panel. It may be built into the console or sold separately. If the dishwasher won’t start, it could be that the contacts have gone bad inside the touchpad.

Reason #6 - Main Control Board: This is the electronic control board that is located in the console of the dishwasher. It is responsible for handling all of the electronic functions of the appliance.
