Default Whirlpool Dishwasher suddenly has no power. Please help!

This is a Whirlpool Quiet Wash Plus (really quiet now ) model
DU8700XB-0 dishwasher. It just stopped running in the middle of a
wash cycle. The light on the front is not on either. I have already
checked the circuit breaker and it still doesn't come on. Can you
recommend what to check next?

Thanks!

Owners guide has a few things to check:

Then you can make sure you have power where the DW wiring connects to the
house wiring.

Skimpy wiring diagram I found did not show any fuses. Check behind the
kickplate for a tech sheet that will have a full wiring diagram. May be
taped to the backside of it.

Bad door latch or related switches will kill everything.

Sure you have the right breaker? Did you cycle it to off then back
on? Sometimes it's not obvious that a breaker has tripped. Next
step would be to verify that there is power at the dishwasher
connection.

Check the counter for a receptacle that has a reset button.

The dishwasher shouldn't be connected to counter receptacles, but it
is easy enough to check.
