Not worth fixing, you are better off putting that money towards a new one. unless you can find the arm and repair it yourself

I have a DS601 v2 dishwasher drawer that has suddenly stopped cleaning the dishes. The drain filter isn't completely emptying either. I've taken all the parts out and cleaned them bit this made no...

There are a few things that can cause this.
If there are no error messages being displayed during the cycle, the most common ones are:
1) Loose Impeller on the motor rotor. Check it by removing the drain filter, dish rack, spray arm and main wash filter (the giant stainless steel circular one), then twist the motor to the left and it should just pop out. If you hold the bottom of the motor in one and and the larger impeller on top freely spins, this is your problem.
2) Crack in the side of the spray arm. If the spray arm is separated, then the water pressure will being spraying sideways, rather than up to your dishes.
3) Too much fat or protein built up inside. This happens when you put too much eggs and milky stuff in there. Just run it for a cycle with detergent but no dishes. DO NOT use one of those dishwasher cleaner things in a dish drawer, they do more harm than good due to the fact that they are designed for a dishwasher with double the capacity of yours.

My Whirlpool Quiet Partner II does not clean the upper rack of dishes properly. They are greasy. I have checked the top spray arm for blockages. There were none. I am fairly certain that water is

Make sure the center loading is not obstructing the water jet to the top shelf. Top shelf is only for glasses and saucers , use Jet-Dry .Pre rinse and clean bottom pan strainer from dirt debris.

Do you have hard water? Many states have passed laws that outlawed phosphate as an ingredient in dishwasher detergent. If you have hard water, the detergents don't work very well anymore. The residue is probably hard water deposits (calcium and magnesium). Not harmful but it looks awful on your dishes. There are some new products that were designed to solve this exact problem. They are inexpensive and effective. Can't say the name or I'll get banned (again). Internet search will uncover it.

All the jets must be clean especially the drive jets at the ends of the wash arms, these drive the arms around thus allowing jets of water to reach every piece of crockery.

Bottom of my Bosch dishwasher not cleaning dishes, top tray OK have cleaned / taken apart

Carefully inspect the lower spray arm for a crack or separation.
Also inspect the holes in the spray arm that may be stopped up with debris.
Remove and clean the filter in the front center of the tub.
Set the spray arm at the 12 o'clock position and start the washer. After 30 seconds open the door and check the position of the spray arm. Do thi several times to confirm the spray arm is rotating.
