My dishwasher runs 4+ hours each cycle. After I manually stop it the dishes don’t always even look clean. There is a film that dries on the dishes but this is inconsistent. I have opened it up in the middle of a cycle and don’t feel it’s as hot as it should be. I found a Bosch Technician testing code program. Ran the test program but the flashing button at the beginning of the test is still flashing at the end of the cycle. Thought the test codes would show a solid light but its not clear in the manuel. If it’s the right code it would be the heating element. Or did the test really not do anything? It sounds like it does. I’m trying to figure out if I need a new control panel or heating element. Or am I missing something else altogether?
