Tried holding down the end of cycle button for 3 seconds, says the control lock is off. if i unplug and replug the push to start button works.
If disconnecting power and then re-applying it resolves the problem you have a bad relay on the control panel and it needs to be replaced to actually resolve the problem. Note that there are two control boards right there in the front. Here is a diagram to use so you can get a visual of what I'm talking about.

If all the functions are working as set when the machine is able to start, then more than likely the first board is the bad one, but to honestly know you'll need the machine in the state where it won't start, with the top off and access to the boards. With a volt meter you'll need to check to see if the assigned voltage is going from the first to second board. There is a wiring schematic in the machine somewhere that will give you all the specs on that.
