Default dishwasher won't start
Model Number: 1500   Brand: Frigidaire   Age: Less than 1 year   
The lock light on the front panel is on but the washer will not start when the button is pressed. No other buttons will light. We do have problens with power surges. I cycled the breaker to see if the washer would reset but it did not.

In order to provide most accurate advise we need the complete model number of the dishwasher.

Possible the control panel is locked out. Push the "Heated dry" button and hold it for 5 seconds or until it beeps.

Thanks for the quick fix. My wife was shocked that I fixed the dishwasher
by myself.
