Frigidaire has no power

My dishwasher has no power. My friend told me to check the fuse but my manual doesnt tell me how to do this. Our power blinked off and on a couple of days ago, when it was real windy. I checked it when I came home from work, and all the lights were on the door so I opened and shut the dishwasher door and it was fine. Then my daughter went to run it that night it wouldnt turn on. We checked our breakers, and the receptical where the appliance is plugged in. This is my very first post and I would appreciate any suggestions.
