The first is incorrect. The second should read: "I was just looking at the dishwasher to see if my cup was there."

Neither one really works...
I was just looking for my cup in the dishwasher... still not perfect but a little better... How about... I want my cup... Is it in the dishwasher? Wherefore art thou oh cup-e-o... Sorry, just had to... lol... Good luck with your homework...

The second is preferable but still not quite idiomatic. Even better would be "I was just looking at the dishwasher to see whether my cup was there."
