...How exactly do I do that cause it's not very clear on the diagram and what kind of results am I looking for on the multimeter?... Check for continuity between the RD-16-1 and the WHRD-e0-1 wires. The normal reading should show some low resistance. Gene.

The coding plug is missing. what is the effect of that?
Also, I did not get any measurement between the two wires.
Should I pull the unit out and check the heater? is there two elements or one in the heater? I see 3 wires going to it.

Bosch did not say why but it says in all manuals and instructions that it must be there. I'm assuming that otherwise dishwasher would not work properly and it's possible to damage the control.
In order to verify the condition of the heater and hi-limit you can run the test program (page 9) and measure the current in the d/w main power line or just check each part separate as described on the same page.

so, the coding plug or jumper or wharever u want to call it, could be the whole problem. unfortunately the new control panel did not come with that instruction. oh well.

when the water starts circulating during the test program it only pulls 1.1A, so I obviously have to check the heater, hi-lmit and flowswitch. Do I have to remove tank or block it up if I can reach in there? or thats the only way to access those parts? do you have documentation available like the one you gave me on the Motor? let me know - Thanks.

I could not download the info you sent me as of yet, but this is what I came up using a klein c1000 multimeter and a test light.
when checking the heater at all ohms settings i get .OL and the test lite does not lite up. will assume the heater element is not good.
testing the flow switch by closing the contacts, I get 0 at ohms and M ohms, but when I used the lite on the terminals, it does light up.
regarding the high limit: there are two set of wires: 2 red on the left and
2 green on the right. I removed the wiring and when I tested the 2 terminal where the green wiring goes I got 0.059 M ohms and 0.00 M ohms
between the 2 red wires. I did not remove it from the top of the heater and I am not sure if I checked correctly.

When you do continuity test, your meter should be set on the lowest possible scale. Otherwise any results will be inaccurate.
Set the meter on the lowest possible scale and redo all tests.
