This morning we went to wash a load of dishes and it won't start. The "normal" button lights up and it beeps as it should when the door is fully closed. But the "start" button doesn't light up and pressing it does nothing. The other buttons on the control panel seem to be working. Any idea what could be wrong?

Ohm out the 2 switches at the door switch............if that doesn't work i'd suspect the touchpad is bad most likely. You may also have to replace the main board that works with it possibly afterwards also. The touchpad alone is $250 and the main control is $121. 01-Escutcheon & Door Assembly parts for GE PDW7880N00SS - AppliancePartsPros.com
