Why your Thermador dishwasher is won't start
A Thermador dishwasher that is won't start tends to show the same signs: unit completely dead, no lights, no response. Door switch, control board, or power issue. The usual culprit is faulty door switch or interlock. Left unaddressed, laundry backs up fast.
Most likely causes
- A failed start capacitor
- Failed main control board
- Tripped thermal protector
- A power supply or wiring fault
- Faulty door switch or interlock

- Steam oven scaling from hard water
- Star Burner igniter and control faults
Quick check — and when it's not DIY
Worth checking yourself first: 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 none of that changes anything, 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.
