Water does not appear to be heating
Element seems ok
There is no power going to the element when it should during the operation
IF YOUR DISHWASHER IS OVER 3 YEARS OLD IT HAS PROBABLY BLOWN THE HEATER IF THEY ARE USED ON REPEATEDLY LOW TEMP WASHES FAT CAN BUILD UP AND DESTROY THE ELEMENT ON A 35 QUICK WASH IT SHOULD HEAT UP WITHIN 12 MINS OF STARTING IF NOT HEATING APPLIANCE WILL WASH FOR UP TO 3 HOURS IN COLD WATER IF CYCLE TIMES ARE NORMAL BUT NO HEAT IS EITHER A THERMOSTAT OR PCB FAULT THE FORMER IS LESS LIKELY,YOU SHOULD GET AREADING OF AROUND 25 TO 30 OHMS ACROSS LIVE AND NEUTRAL AND INFINITY ACROSS LIVE TO EARTH AND NEUTRAL TO EARTH.
HOPE THIS HELPS

Hi,
I have an older dishwasher also and recently my wife also complained about it not cleaning right... so me being the man I am tried in vain to clean the things... Bought new spray arms online and installed them in minutes...now the thing works like new... However I have also found that if the heating element goes bad then that also can mess things up bad... So I would buy new spray arms, and also check out the heating element to make sure it is working... Here is a tip that will help you with the online buying...
