Dishwasher starts - runs a while hesitates, sometimes goes on other times trips breaker. If breaker is activated it may run again to the end or stop. I'm guessing it's a timer or a heating element or a thermostat waiting for water to heat. Please advise. CharlieUserPostedImage

Charlie,

The best thing is to measure amperage drawn by the dishwasher to find out if the cause is a weak breaker or the dishwasher. You can find the normal amperage on the dishwasher name plate.
