    Just a thought - if you have access to enough flex cable from the dishwasher and it draws less than 13A, you could wire a plug to the end and plug it into a mains energy monitor. That way you can monitor the power consumption over time for any anomalies.

    Something like this:

    If you decide not to, keep checking the new FCU and fuse periodically!

    Brilliant idea thank you. Hopefully though I'll be leaving the house soon and it becomes my ex's problem to fix before he sells. I have no idea how to ensure he gets it checked and/or fixed though :(
