    Hi,

    So we bought this PoS about 18 months ago, yesterday the RCD tripped in our kitchen and since then the dishwasher isn’t working correctly – from observations I can see that it’s not heating the water. (No steam when opening it after a full cycle and it’s not using the amount of electricity it use too).

    I’m confident the issue is a faulty flow heater and it needs replacing, I’m comfortable doing this but wondered if anyone had a service manual or experience in doing this they could share with me.

    I fully understand that any risk is my own, this may not even be the issue and I may replace a non faulty part.

    thanks in advance for any advice.

    the heater is easily checked with a multimeter on low ohms scale. likely as not if you get any reading it ok but your looking for under 100 ohms
