Kitchen Large Electric Appliances - Dishwasher prob -water will not come into dw

I just moved into new place; dishwasher is pretty new but not used very much by previous tenant.
I turned on to use and no water will pump into dw.

Any suggestions? I really appreciate the help!

Here are some things you can check:

"If there's no water entering your dishwasher, check these:

Water-inlet valve
Float switch


Water-inlet valve

The water-inlet valve lets water enter the machine. If this valve is defective, you need to completely replace it. It's usually located behind the lower access panel on the left or right side. It's the device with the main water line (usually copper) from the house, a rubber tube to the dishwasher, and two wires attached to it.



Float switch

The float switch is a small electrical switch that's located right below the dishwasher "floor." Above the switch, on the inside of the dishwasher, is a plastic cylinder that floats up as water fills the dishwasher. If this switch is defective, or if the plastic float gets caught or trapped in the raised position, the water can't enter the dishwasher. If the float switch is defective, you need to replace it."

First check the water line leading from under the sink to the dishwasher. It may have a shut-off valve under the sink that is closed, i.e., no water is going to dishwasher.
