Can be just a sticking knob - if it is in a recess it can get a bit crudded
up. Pull off and clean

There are points in the cycle where it stops and waits for
something external, such as water to get up to temperature.
A possibility is you've problem a heater or thermometer
connection so it either isn't heating, or doesn't know it's
heating. What is it doing at the point where it gets stuck,
and what might it be waiting for?

I didn't see the original discussion of this, but in our dishwasher
occasionally lemon pips would find their way into a jet of the spinning
arm. This would either block a horizontal jet and affect the spinning
directly, or or block a vertical jet, thereby unbalancing the arm, and
causing it to press against the basket above, also preventing it from
spinning.

Unpopped popcorn kernels can play the same trick.
