You need to check what has happened to the control boards.
Having so many failures in such a short time is too coincidental
Not drying the dishes and not properly cleaning could be several things, e.g. not drying could be faulty heater element, not cleaning could be the circulation pump not pushing enough water through the spray arms to clean properly. Both which may affect the control board as the power for these components comes through the control board.
If you have the old control board you may be able to check what is damaged and then hopefully work out what it controls in the dishwasher.
Without a schematic of the control board it will be very difficult but maybe it can be worked out by looking at where it is damaged and then tracing the tracks from the damaged section to the connectors on the board and see what wires are connected to it and then where they then go to in the dishwasher and testing whatever they’re connected to.
At least this is what I'd do.

If you decide to try this yourself, also start a new question on ifixit giving details e.g. make and model and a brief history of the problem etc as you have already done ;-), (include the control board “board number” - printed on board itself - if it has one, maybe there is a schematic online) and post some close up images of the control board as well showing the damage it there is any in evidence or even not. Perhaps something will be spotted that you may not have noticed. Here’s how to do this [guide|13161]

It may take a while to find out what is happening as I said it will be difficult. It depends on how much time more than anything you’re prepared to wait without perhaps a conclusive answer.
The alternative is to cut your losses and invest in a new dishwasher
