Why your Kenmore dishwasher is won't start
When a Kenmore dishwasher is won't start, here's what you'll usually notice: unit completely dead, no lights, no response. Door switch, control board, or power issue. On this platform it's most often failed main control board. Left unaddressed, laundry backs up fast.
Most likely causes

- Failed main control board
Known Kenmore dishwasher weak points
- refrigerator cooling failure (cause varies by OEM) and clogged water filter reducing flow
- dryer not heating from failed heating element, thermal fuse, or thermostat
- washer won't spin or drain from a broken belt or clogged pump
- diagnosis complicated because parts differ by the actual manufacturer
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. Also, try a different outlet if one's available, to rule out a dead circuit rather than the unit itself. 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.
