If your dishwasher has no power and it’s NOT coming from the breaker panel be sure the switch on the wall that controls the dishwasher is flipped on. This can get turned off accidentally and go unoticed all the time.
I DON'T KNOW. PLEASE CHECK FUSE OR CIRCUIT BREAKER FOR WASHER. IF OK, MOVE BREAKER TO OFF AND ON A FEW TIMES. LOOK TO SEE IF YOUR WASHER CONNECTION IS A 110V PLUG THAT IT IS
FIRMLY PLUGGED IN. THE DOOR SWITCH MAY BE LOOSE OR HAS FAILED. IF POSSIBLE LEAN ON THE
DOOR WHEN CLOSED TO SEE IF PANEL COMES ON.

I suggest calling Maytag and have a tech come out to look at it. Appliances come with a one year parts and labor warranty.Use it before your one year is up.

SOURCE: Maytag Quiet Series 300 dishwasher,
Our control panel is fine. For now. (The machine is only 3 months old). This is our problem--and I haven't yet seen this complaint at all over the internt: The lower wash arm is getting stuck on the bottom rack and stopping immediately. This seems to be a design flaw. The bottom rack is just built too low. A service man was out once. He tightened the wash arm. Didn't work. The service department at the dealership is now ignoring our subsequent calls!! So I wonder if the "not cleaning" problem you have is because of this.

A water softner will not make the dishes any cleaner, it just makes it so they don't have water spots on them.
If the dishes are dirty, it is most likely that the nozzles (holes) in arms may be plugged.
Also check to make sure you are getting plenty of water to dishwasher. Make sure all water valves are full turned open.
If the control panel does not work all the time, it is very likely you have either a shorted wire, or a fualty main board which is very common in newer machines.
SOURCE: How do I get to the control panel on a Maytag washer?
First, does the machine stop filling if you pull the plug? If not, he is wrong and you need the fill valve. The piece the hoses go into. If it does stop when plug pulled then he is likely correct.
Pull machine away from the wall. Disconnect power. The control panel has two plastic end caps. The rear edge of each end cap will show a hole which has a partially covered Phillips head screw in it. Put a screwdriver in and remove the screw in each end cap.
Move to the front of the washer. Grasp each end cap and pull straight toward you about 1/4 " to 1/2 " then lift. The control panel should disengage from the top of the machine. The top of the control panel stays attached to the back plate of the washer. Rotate the front of the control up. This will expose all parts in the control panel.
Look for a 1/4" clear hose coming from inside the machine to one of the switches. This small hose can become detached from the switch and not send the "full" signal to shut the water off. It may also develop a small air leak which prevents the signal. If the hose is detached...reattaching and adding a hose clamp will prevent future detachment. if not detached, the pressure (level) switch itself is likely the problem.
Reverse the above process to reattach the control panel. If the machine is full spin to empty before testing your repair to remove water from tube. Good Luck.
