I just bought a new pump and motor for my dishwasher and installed it. I was having problems with the pressure not getting to the top was bars. I am still having these problems. I have also reset the front board on the control panel. I can get them to move but silverware is not even wet.

Could be that you have a fill problem and the pump is starving for water.

They usually fill to just under the heating element.
Often if it is a low fill issue, you can hear it, the pump will growl because it is sucking in air.
You can check this by adding a quart or two of hot water after each fill during a cycle. If it now washes OK then I would check the screen filter on the input side of the water valve for a partial plug. If dirty clean it. Do not permanently remove it from the valve as it is there to keep crud out of the valve which could hold it open and cause a flood.
Just be careful to not over fill it.

If it still does not fill correctly I would replace the fill valve.
