Answer:
I will be glad to help you with your question today.
You say nothing happens when you try to start the machine?
Do you get any lights on the console?
Do you get two dings quickly in a row when you press the power button?
just one ding each time i press it
You need to replace the motor control unit. This is a common problem with your machine.

The part is easy to replace and it located down on the left corner of the machine, behind the lower panel
This is the best price I could find for you.
