I pushed quick wash and start, shut the door and it started and then quit. No lights no nothing. I can't get it to do anything. I checked the breakers to see if it tripped a breaker. It doesn't seem to have tripped one.

You will need to get a meter and diagnose it. Here are some manuals: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/8010163/Electrical%20Theory%20and%20Diagnosis%20of%20Major %20Appliances%20Service%20Manual.pdf

You probably have a mis-adjusted door latch switch which is a micro-switch encased in a white plastic housing. Sometimes they go bad, too, which is when you need to test the switch first to make sure that the contacts open and close. You may also have a stuck safety switch, like the float valve in the wash tub stuck in the up position. It's really very simple. The manuals are for Whirlpool dishwashers, but all dishwashers work alike. On specific repairs there are videos on YouTube.
