My Whilpool dishwasher overheated, started smoking and smelled like burnt plastic. Just started last night. Any ideas of what would cause this?:confused:

Have you looked in the bottom of the DW to be sure something i.e. plastic bowl, lid, etc. has not fallen through and is contacting the heating element?
