Maytag dishwasher about 6-9 months old. Model MDB6769AWW1.

Water gets hot.
Water fills around heating element. Dirty-ish water during wash cycle in the bottom, and nice clean water in the bottom during rinse cycle.

The machine sounds normal at all stages.

The little top arm doesn't move.
The middle arm appears to move about an inch.
The bottom arm appears to move about an inch.
It seems to squirt, but not with enough force to rotate.

The soap empties normally.
The drain hose to the garbage disposal is attached appropriately up close to the underside of the counter, above the garbage disposal attachment.

We scrape, but don't rinse dishes. we removed all three arms and ran water through them and appear all fine.

Removed the screen on the bottom, cleaned.


After all this, the dishes are still very gritty feeling with many dishes still dirty.

What is next?

Thanks in advance!
