No such luck!
No Andrew, the 18's did not have the heat delay in any portion of any cycle until the last rinse and you would have to select the Sani Cycle for it to stop and delay and heat the water in the final rinse to 180.
with the 20 as our current daily driver, Iren is complaining that it takes too long to do the dishes because of the heat delay at the beginning of the cycles. I showed her how to use the low energy cycle and then hit the heavy wash or sani cycle button and it wont heat and the same would hold true on the other cycles if you hit low energy after the beginning of the longer cycles until you hear the timer advance past the heat delay detent. I will probably just install a small bypass switch under the lower panel so she doesnt have to go too crazy with it. She did ask for the "18" back so I may just throw that whole door with the harnesses back on it so she will be happier.
In reality, the cycles on the 20 even with the heat delay arent all that much longer than the 18. Coincidentally, the 18 only heated to 140 for the final sani rinse because the 180 degree thermostat went bad and I grabbed the first one I had that would fit and it was a 140 from a 21 series. so even if I reinstall the 18 innards, it will now take longer with the new thermostats from the 20 and that only heats to 172 by measurement(165 spec-ed tstat). SO she may still complain!
I cannot win.
