Maytag Dishwasher Won't Start

i have a Maytag MDB7749AWM2 diswasher that is about 18 months old.  It has been working fine but today woujld not start.  There is power and the door appears to be latching fine.  All the buttons on the front can be pushed and light up except for the start button.  I turned off the circut breaker and turned it back on.  I pushed a combination of "heated dry" and "sanitize" 2x and all the lights came on and it appeared to go through a test cycle and it sounded as if everythign was working.  When that was done all the lights came on and it still won't start.  Any ideas?
