Help!! JennAir dishwasher won’t fill w/ water- need DIY help please?

Question by upside down: Support!! JennAir dishwasher won’t fill w/ water- require DIY help please?
It is approx 8 years old. I’ve got no manual on it, it was here when we moved in.

When we push the button to start a wash cycle, you “hear” typical dish washer noise but you do not hear the usual sound of high pressure water splashing around. I’ve attempted ALL various buttons and exact same results. I stopped it at mid cycle to peek
at the water level and see if the leading rack “test dishes” were hot and wet but no just hot. There was a quite shallow pool of water at the bottom.

I’ve checked for clogs in the holes on all the spray arms but they all look clear.

Now what? I just HATE to call in a repairman now, I’m unemployed and items are bad adequate already.

Thanks in advance to any person who can support.
TC you are a hero! A lot of thanks. Tell me, is there a feasible connection in between the kitchen faucet trouble (since 2 months ago)and the dishwasher difficulties that rapidly followed? My faucet began leaking in the off position, then my son turned off the cold water side and now no leaks. But now the D/W doesn’t work?
OMG, is this Why???

Does not sound good! First though, check under the sink, if you see the water line running to the washer, you will see a shutoff valve, make positive it is on. The subsequent factor that will preserve water from going into the washer is the valve on the machine. It could be negative. Shut the water off, get rid of the hose at the machine, and turn the water on adequate to be sure it is getting to the washer. Replace the valve. Oh come on! Certain it’s challenging, but not impossible. unfasten it and pull it to the middle of the space, and turn it on it is face, you will see the valve. You don’t have something else to do, right? Well, if you just don’t want to, get a book from the library that will show you how to wash dishes by hand.
