Quick check — and when it's not DIY
Before you call anyone, check the outlet and breaker, and confirm the door is fully closed and latched — many units won't start at all with a door safety switch tripped. When that isn't the fix, a control board fault has to be tested with a meter against the service manual — swapping the board on a guess is an expensive way to be wrong.
