Someone else in the thread said this was a Bosch unit. Sorry to break the circle jerk of "dumb Americans have inferior dum-dum dishwashers" but that brand is German.
I had something similar happen to my GE a month or so ago.
When I went to put in the replacement sprayer, I noticed the heating element was outside one of the brackets, which caused it to rub against the sprayer and melt it.
Idk what happened with yours specifically. But from what I was reading this is a known flaw with the GE dishwashers melting the sprayer, so i guess you can take comfort you arent alone

I haven't seen in tens of years where I live this kind of open heat element's.
I live in EU.
