cannot get any buttons to light on control panel other than cancel to work?

I have a kitchenaid superba dishwasher model kuds01ilwh1 which I haven't used for 3-4 months while I've been at cottage. I tried to get it to wash a load tonight but could not get any of the front touch buttons to light. The Energy Saver Dry button will however light if I hold it for 4 seconds and go out if I hold it another 4 seconds and the "cancel" button will initiate a 2 min. drain but that is all. I have tried to unplug the unit and wait a minute and plug it back in to try to reset but still nothing. Any suggestions. Thank you

I finally got the unit to work by unplugging it and waiting at least 10 minutes and then replugging it back in and trying the "rinse and hold" cycle and lo and behold it started to work. Maybe there was a power surge or lightning hit close by the house while I was away??? Anyways, try this fix if you have the same problem...
