My Neff dishwasher has just started showing the same symptoms - the water isn't being heated, and the program seems to run for ever.
I have checked the resistance of the heater, and is 23ohms so that seems OK.
Not sure how to check the thermistor though - does anyone know if its the device on the top of the instantaneous heater with two plugs? I have measured across both plugs at this point and both are open circuit.
Not sure what to do here. Normally I try to fix stuff myself, but this looks like a horrible job - no access at all - was a pain even getting the readings I have.
Should I just replace the washer at £500 or so (its > 5 years old) or get someone in to fix it (£200?)
