Dishwasher does not start

I have a Kenmore dishwasher 665.16372301. It just stopped working. You press the “normal” wash button and start - nothing happens. The “normal” button stays lite for a while, then goes off.

Did any light on the control panel blink? Did it make any noise?

Check the door switches and the wires. Check if there is 120VAC to the control board. Post the results.

We ordered a new control panel and it lasted less than a week. So something else must be causing it to go out

What is the part number of the control panel you replaced? What it does now?

I don’t have the part number right now, I ordered it from sears. It doesn’t turn on and none of the panel lights lite, and as a bonus, there is standing water in the bottom
