Hi Pam, did you get a resolution for this. I have the same issue.

I have a Frigidaire dish washer model # FDBB4365FB2 that will not run. It does not show any fault codes but when I push the normal wash button and the start button and close the door the display shows the time then go’s off. What would cause this to happen.
