When I pressed start the red light came on where the intake/drain indicator is. I turned off andon again and it still did not start.

This light will signal when there is something obstructing the drain, check, and remove debris. This light will signal when there is something obstructing the drain, check, and remove debris.

Check that the water valves are opened fully or whether the water inlet hose is kinked. Check that the water inlet filter is not clogged and clean it, if necessary, as described in the operating instructions. Check that the drain pump is not clogged. This can be cleaned as described in the operating instructions. Reset the error message as follows: To cancel the error message, turn the rotary selector switch to "Stop/End" or press the "Start/Stop" switch for approx. 5 secs. Then switch the appliance off and then back on again...That should resolve your issue. I apologize for the delay in answering your question. Thank you for choosing Fixya!!!!!

ok - perhaps some more questions will help you get to the bottom of it all:
Did you take out the bottom dish tray and inpsect the drain such that it is fully clear, no debris or other sign of being plugged or reduced drain flow?
How about the drain hose where does it lead to and what is the condition - does it drain to your kitchen sink? Is there an insinkerator (garbage disposal) in the sink drain which the dishwasher has been hooked into - perhaps something pinched the drain hose in there?
Alternatively the water feed line - did you inspect to see it's not been pinched or perhaps shut off for any reason?
Also - perhaps you could do a (lighted) visual inspection in the basement below where the dishwasher is installed to be sure everything is in order.. water & drain lines..
Best regards
