  • ecpentony May 02, 2009

    dishwasher will not start and I am unable to program any cycle. The only light on is next to a box structure with the number 3 in it. I have also checked the fuse box and it shows no tripped fuse.

This happened to my maytag dishwasher mdb-8 also.
Check the plug (outlet) - Mine looked like it was pluged in, but it was a bit loose, when I pushed it in firmly the dishwasher turned on:)

(Check the plug in the outlet)

My Maytag dishwasher will not run. It is completely dead. Nothing lights up, etc. It is only a few years old.

Many newer dishwashers are wired to a switch on the wall as a means of service
disconnects in new homes. Also I would check the GFCI outlets in the kitchen area
and possibly the bathroom as well to see if they are tripped. (Press the test button and
then the reset button on them to test). The next thing I would check is the breaker
panel to see if the dishwasher is on it's own breaker. And lastly I would check the
connections to the dishwasher itself (after making absolutely sure power is off to the
wiring feeding the dishwasher at the breaker panel). I hope this is helpful.

I have a Maytag MDB 5600AWW dishwasher. There are

If there are no lights on the control panel then initially check if connections to the panel are fine.If they look fine then you definitely need a new control panel. No need for a new touch panel.Its always that the control panel goes faulty,not the touch panel.
you can also check for competitive rates from local dealers and few sites like--repairclinic.com and applianceparts.com
thanks.
