Where did the green fluid come from?

Where is the capacitor that has the holes in it located?

Here is a link to the parts of your dishwasher model 665.16369300.

the fluid came from the capacitor, under the dishwasher, two holes in the capacitor itself, it was greenish yellow, kinda neon, if i remember correctly, the option buttons such as air dry work, but none of the cycle buttons work or the start button, the capacitor is $55 i know where to get it, but like my dad said if that not the problem and it's a control board wiring problem a new machine might be a better option. thanks

If the lights on the display will not light it is not cause by the capacitor.

If the lights light but the motor won't run that is cause by the capacitor.
