Dishwasher Repair

Dishes in the top rack not cleaning or drying. I have cleaned the bottom filter screen and check all arms for clogged ports. I am not sure the age of the machine.
The water temp and pressure is ok. What could the problem be.
Thanks

If you have checked the water pressure, and it is good, and you have checked and made sure the sprayer arms are spinning freely and have water coming out of them, then I would suggest to have a technician come check the water hose connections. The sprayer arms only work from the water pressure, something is not right. Also make sure you have a water temperature of at least 120ºF or the detergent will not dissolve and your dishes will not clean.

I'm sure a new in valve would have fixed it. When I cleaned the screen it was better. However I have purchased a new washer. I did not want to put more money in it. Found a good deal with a veterans discount.
Thanks for your help.
