I've only been in the house about 2 yrs, so I'm guessing at the age of the dishwasher. Actual age unknown. Any ideas on how to make it start drying again? Is it a relatively easy repair? I can replace parts, but not so good with tracing wires, testing circuits, etc.

You need to test each component to narrow down the diagnosis; or ou need to find someone (maybe a friend, confident with a meter) to do it for you.
