"fixed" the latch so that I could watch the unit during operation... lower arms spin 2 or 3 times then stopped (minimal water shooting out), the spins again 2 or 3 times (no change in amount of water) then stops spinning but water comes out of the holes (similar to a water fountain/drinking fountain) ... water never makes it up to the back wall sprayer, under top rack sprayer or top rack sprayer. First few months worked great but then, smelly, dirty dishes. I removed and cleaned out the arms as suggested in the trouble-shooting index.... uggghhh, thanks. Oh yeah, not hot either...
Recommend you pull the bottom spray arm straight up, then out of the DW.
Remove 9 phillips screws that hold the filter shroud down. Remove the filter and clean/rinse it out.
While the filter it out, grab a flashlight and inspect all over the sump area. Especilly in the area the has the check valve that rotates (Vario motor-driven) to feed the water pressure either to the lower and then the upper arms. Watch out for broken glass! Also, inspect the impeller to see if it is undamaged and spins easily.
Reassemble, then test out.
If problems remain, the the wash pump motor is probably the culprit. Do you get any error messages on the time display?
Good Luck!

I'm having the EXACT same problem now. I've gone through the machine and clenaed it and everything. Did you find out what the issue was with yours?
