How do I get my dishwasher to start..............?
.......she has been asleep for over an hour now and isn't showing any signs of waking. Perhaps I should poke her with a cattle prod.

Check the isolation switch near the dishwasher (should have a fuse in it) - check its switched on first!
Check the door's closed properly and that you have set everything correctly
Check the last cycle finished and you are starting on a new cycle
otherwise....
Check the fuse in the appliance plug/in the wall (might need an electrician to do this for you). Failing that, there's probably a fault with it internally. Get a service engineer out, or learn to use the sink quick(!) - Does she know what you call her?!!!

LOL! that question was naughty but funny...
i suggest YOU do them, she will have such a lovely surprise, when she wakes up, that maybe she'll be so overjoyed she will gladly let you poke her! ( just don't use the cattle prod...could be nasty) now go and get your rubber gloves on!!!! oohh la la!!!

Some people just don't understand the question....
I had the same problem with my dishwasher so i tossed her out and invested in a newer, younger model...a bit of moulding and squeezing in and life's great again.....and this newer model is more than a dishwasher...if you know what i mean.......?

I have the same problem with my washing machine. Sometimes if you nudge the door that usually helps. I take it it's switched on, the fuse hasn't gone in the plug etc? Maybe you should get a repair man to have a look at it...........

Why didn't you just nick out for a pint & let your drunken snoring waken her up when you get home.
It always seems to work with me

make sure it is plugged in,or a circuit breaker has popped. It may need some controls changed.
