Dishwasher not used for ten weeks since then it seems to fill and empty, but not cleaning dishes properly. When it is filling the water is coming from the spinning arms but they are not spinning.The water pressure seems to be high enough as water without arms on will reach roof of unit. There is a unit on inlet of water supply could this cause problem?
Problem is usually debris in the end angled jet of the spray arm which is used to turn the arms. take them outy and patiently clean. very common problem

Hi
If you
are noticing that the dishes are not clean, then there are a few things to
check for. Check the soap powder if it's kept in a dry environment. Also try
replacing the powder with something like a gel or liquid. Next thing to check
for is the water pressure and fill valve. Check if the water is filling in and
the spray arms are throwing the water with enough pressure. Try and listen to
the sound if you hear a proper spraying action sound.
If it
seems as a low water pressure then check the fill valve. Now, check if
dishwasher is draining the water or not. While the dishwasher is working check
whether the dishwasher is draining and there is not much left out water after
the cycle is complete. Try cleaning the spray arm with a soft brush. The water
temperature plays a major role in cleaning of dishes. The temp should be
between 125 and 150 F for dishwasher to clean the dishes.
Hope this helps...
