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. If that doesn't fix it, if power and the door are both fine, the fault is in the control board or start circuit, and testing that safely means working inside a live electrical panel.
