The Pots and Pan cycle on my 18 runs a looong time and with a couple of soaks in between. Kitchenaid did it right using 2 activated detergent doors and a sunken in place between for detergent cups for detergent on the first of 2 pre wash cycles for the P&P cycle (3 stage detergent). The heating element runs at 700 watts during the pre wash (pre washes if the P&P cycle), wash, and last 2 rinses (full 1400 watts during Sani) to provide enough electrical headroom for the beefy 1/2 HP motor and other operations. Even then, it'll occasionally pop the GFCI breaker 'cause it sucking the juice down hard and long. Actually happened last night.

Did the breaker trip on differential or over-current?
Differential protection does not respond to over current, only current imbalances between the hot and neutral conductors. The leakage current to ground of older appliances is much high vs newer ones so GFCI trips are far more likely with an older machine than a newer one.
Do have the exact timing and cycle sequence to your 18? I'm curious how time vs power vs heating all comes together.
With that said, you're lucky to have what is probably the fourth best dishwasher series ever made.
I swear, I wish I could get my hands on one.
Which models had a rinse aid dispenser in addition to heat dry?
Now, Kitchenaid is just another Whirlpool just like Maytag of today.
Puny pumps anybody? That's what you get today.

About that A.I. generated stuff that was mentioned here.......
Which, I might add, is just another tool that's on its way to being abused for criminal purposes.....
There's currently an annoying tv commercial that instills Fear into vulnerable viewers.
It concerns home equity theft. - the SHADY business is called Home Title Lock.
And as we all should know, Fear is used in most commercials as a Marketing tactic to rope you into buying their product or services. - good OR bad.
You may have seen it, but look close at the "woman" and tell me that she's a Real Human. - I think NOT.... nice try, but she's a generated robot.
Also, you don't have to believe me, but google up reviews about this so-called home equity protection service - it's a damn SCAM!

Ahhh, Youtube, the biggest hypocrites on the internet. Don't get me started. Anything remotely contradicting an official set narrative gets you banned for life violating their arbitrary ever goal post shifting terms of service "spam, scams, or other deceptive practices" Yet when you go to watch videos 95% of the adverts are fake AI generated stuff with a notable percentage of which is either not family friendly or not legal to begin with. Companies hold themselves to one standard, everyone else to another standard. The power imbalance is very real and I don't see things in the appliance industry changing until consumers get their say back.
Today they will build and sell anything half baked while demanding that you love it.

Well-stated Chet!
A person, preferrably one with a properly Functioning Brain, has to wonder why this recent widespread torrent of Misinformation, Lies, Double Standards, is becoming the norm in recent times.
It's also quite obvious to me and others that something's up, something's going on, and for various reasons yet to be determined.
To me, it this crap seems to have infected everything imaginable, with hoards of society buying into this twisted form of lifstyle.
You mentioned youtube and banning, it's not just that website either.
I've personally have gotten banned from some websites for stating honest Facts, along with Proof, and that caused other members to get pissed off enough to get me tossed out. - for being Honest! WTF!
As for "standards", there's that old saying: "If it wasn't for Double Standards, they'd have no standards at all".
I've personally seen what it's done to people that I know, acquaintances, neighbors, and how it's affected them.
And trying to convince them that their beliefs are not right is like pulling teeth.
It's like they've been brainwashed to "follow the crowd", regardless of any reasoning or facts brought to the table.
I'll finish up by saying once again: "The Dumbing-Down Of Society Has Largely Become Successful".
Take for example only using 2 tablespoons of laundry detergent and that fabric softener killing everything which is a lie. Tell it to the thousands of people who still use the recommended amount of laundry detergent and fabric softener without any issues. This is on top of using the proper cycle without issues too.
I agree 100%.

Indeed!.... that crap's enough to nut your brains if you let it!
I've read SO much bullcrap on the internet since I first got a computer in the 1990s - and I knew back then that there were opinionated mental cases coming out of the woodwork trying to spread crap.

Here's yet another "A.I." article that seems to verify how that crap is being used to mess with kids.
I told people, if it can be abused, it will be.
