If it's hard-wired into the house wiring, turn off the breaker that controls it for 2-3 minutes, then flip back on. It might recycle and power up. If plugged into a wall socket, unplug it for 2-3 minutes, then plug back in. OR there may be a reset button somewhere on the unit. Consult your manual.

With a dead unit like that it could be pretty indepth but eliminate the easier things. The unit sould have a fuse that can be checked.
SOURCE: Dishwasher won't start
1. No power to the dishwasherMake sure there's power getting to the dishwasher. Check for a tripped circuit breaker or a blown fuse. Check the wall socket for power. Sometimes the power cord disconnects at the dishwasher (inside the junction box, behind the bottom kick panel), if this is the case, the wiring must be repaired or replaced.
2. Door switch
Replace if defective.
3. Timer
Replace if defective (note: uncommon problem).
4. Selector switch
Replace if defective (note: uncommon problem).

Hi John, and welcome to Fixya. I don't believe the greasy water sitting in the machine has anything to do with the problem, rather it is likely a by-product of the problem. Based on your post, I would start by first shutting off the breaker. Then removing the kick plate ( access panel at the bottom ) and checking the wiring at the junction box for the dishwasher 120vac supply line. Remove the murret's and visually inspect the wire for "resistance burn" and strip the wires back and install new fastener's if necessary to repair. This is actually quite common to find a wire connector come loose due to improper fastening and once the unit is in use for a while the connections heat & cool, become loose from normal operating vibrations and burn up from all the added heat caused by "resistance". The end result is no power to the controls. Check it out and post back what you find. Thanks for visiting "fixya" and please take a moment to rate the solution/suggestion provided here for you. Good luck. Macmarkus :)
