maybe something froze up in there
Or the pressure when the pipe froze damaged a valve, or something like that.
I know it's not that directly related (though I didn't explain why before) because the pipe that froze was the cold water that went to the kitchen sink. The dishwasher is only connected to the hot water pipe, which feeds both the sink and the washer. And the hot water pipe didn't have a problem.

@boomzilla Hmm...had my son take off the front panel and it looks like something got unplugged.

Had a pipe freeze. Fortunately it didn't burst and I think the problem should be fixed now (added insulation).
At my previous apartment, in eastern Pennsylvania, the lease agreement made it quite clear that we were to leave the faucets dripping when snow was expected, and if we did not we would be liable for any damage to the pipes.

Yep, further inspection determined that the solenoid was unplugged.

Yeah, I'm sure it was that big fat one who took the washer out yesterday and then put it back.

@boomzilla Who? I'm sure it was the gremlins. No rational adult would ever do such a stupid thing.

I am reminded of Dan Wells's short story I. E. Demon, in which a couple grunts in Afghanistan are ordered to go out with a few engineers to field-test their new IED nullification device, and then something goes wrong and it gets loose...
