Hotpoint Aquarius FDW40 Dishwasher works normally but doesn't heat the water. How do I get to the heating element?

I self diagnosed that the Heateing Element must have gone, as it works all cycles normally. I've used proper lime scale removing dishwasher cleaners etc but I think It must have gone. Opened the machine, took out the racks and removed the kickboard but I can see NO WHERE how to get INTO the machine. I really can't afford to have someone out to it and one man who I told what was wrong wasn't interested! ( Obviously knew I couldn't be hoodwinked! I have waited for Finish to come up with magic cold water tablets to no avail. PLEASE can someone help me out?

SOURCE: hotpoint aquarius dwf30 dishwasher

you can plumb into hot but there are some snags
first hot water pressure is often a lot lower than cold so the machine may take a long time to fill
second if the water is too hot it will destroy the resin of the water softener and you will see brown marks on the crockery.
third it a bit uneconomical as you will use a lot of hot water

SOURCE: dishwasher element and thermostat

Did anyone get this sorted, mines doing the same. It stops at position 12, no power at the heater, so it stalls. I have replaced the dual thermostats, and the heater element is returning 25ohms resistance.
Its doing my head in!

Check and see if during the heating cycle there is voltage to the element. If not, you will need to replace the control board/module. from serial number 41011 part no is c00143209, to serial no 41011 part no is c00143207
