Our Bosch dishwasher stopped heating the water the other day so I Googled for possible solutions/parts.

I found this:

http://www.ukwhitegoods.co.uk/appliance-industry-n...

Basically there is a fire risk and Bosch are doing a free repair.

This fire risk also applies to Siemens and Neff machines.

If you look at the bottom of that page there are a couple of pictures to show where to find your machine details but the details are very difficult to read.
They are etched in to the metal and but are very faint.

There is also a link to checking your machine and if necessary booking a repair.

Stay safe out there!

Update.

Repairman came and changed the the offending part (control panel in the door), took about 20 minutes.
Very helpful guy and very good communications from the repair company - text messages to remind me of the appointment, phone call from repair man an hour before he arrived etc.

As I said in my OP the reason I found out about this problem was due to our dishwasher not heating the water.
The water heater is now working!
Double result, the dishwasher didn't catch fire and I've not had to pay to fix the water heater!
