Whirlpool Dishwasher Model # Wdf510payw

I installed this dishwasher and have power and water running to it but when I press start the start light comes on for about 20 seconds then the unit turns itself off?  any idea's on what is wrong with the system.  PS: this is the second system.  I bought the original unit new and had the same problem and asked for a replacement unit.
