We have a problem with our dishwasher starting.....

When I press the "Cycle" select switch (e.g. Normal Wash, Risnse, etc.) on the display panel, the countdown display flashes as it's suppose to. However, when I press the "Start/Cancel" button immediately after, nothing happens....the machine doesn't start....The display keeps flashing and then "times-out" after 30 seconds (as it's suppose to)...

I recently replaced the door latch mechanism but cannot see where that has anything to do with the machine not starting as the door seems to latch properly.

The circuit breaker has been checked and seems to be ok as there is A/C power to the machine. Could I have a faulty start switch? Can it be replaced or is it part of the control board assembly?

The first thing I would do is check the door switches and see if they properly engaged with the door closed.
