I have a model GLDB653AQ1 Frigidaire Dishwasher that has a problem. The timer stops in 2 positions. One about the 6pm position and one about the 9pm position. I have replaced the timer and the Temp Boost thermostat both to no avail. I did notice the one lead coming off of the thermostat going to the heater was slightly burned. Also the connectors did not fit real tight. I tightened those connections when I replaced the thermostat. I also believe the water is not heating up but am lost where else to go. Frigidaire was no help after the timer.
Any help would be appreciated.

I have check the wiring between the thermostat and the heating element, that is fine. The wire between the timer and thermostat seems to be fine also. There is a small colored painted dot on the bottom of the thermostat. The one that was in there was green and the replacement one was yellow. I don't know if that has any bearing on the temperture of the thermostat or not.
PLEASE help me with any information. I would like to fix this instead of buying a new dishwasher since this one is only about 18 months old.
