It looks like some kind of light/illumination. Have you tried turning it off and then back on again?

That was my first port of call. I think its the blue thing on the right that is connected both to the light thingy and the dishwasher water inlet supply

Im no expert but the blue thing looks like a solenoid valve. It needs a signal to energize this then opens the valve. The shiny thing probably sends the signal but what is holding this off I would have no idea!
