I have a whirlpool DU1048XTPQ4 from 2005 and i ran it one night, usually I wake up to the CLEAN light being on, this time nothing. No lights come on, I cannot do anything with it. I reset the circuit at the fuse box and used a handheld voltage meter to make sure the power from the wall was hot.

Im guessing either the main circuit board or the control panel is bad. Can anyone help me identify which it could be?

and the control panel for this model APPros only has in black (listed twice on model page for some reason) and not white. Im about to have a two tone dishwasher!

You may want to check the thermal fuse (bi-metal) for continuity. It’s shown as #6 on the [Replacement parts for WHIRLPOOL DU1048XTPQ4 Undercounter Dishwasher | AppliancePartsPros.com](http://www.appliancepartspros.com/partsearch/model.aspx?model_id=5133872&diagram_id=940036"]diagram[/URL].

Whirlpool has discontinued the white control panel for this model. The part number for the white control panel crosses over to the part number for the black one. That’s why the black control panel listed twice.

Thermal fuse or burnt wire nuts at junction box on dishwasher where power cord attaches.
