James M Las Vegas , NV January 20, 2017 Heater element This fix required disconnecting the power, turning off the water, and removing the drain hose and taking the entire bottom off and removing the interior center section. I can't think of another repair that would require so much work to get to the broken part. The end result proved the labor was not in vain. The dishwasher is working like a new unit.
