Default little water

I have a kenmore DW (587.16142400 TH660940336) . SEems to be runnig fine the dishes just don't seem as clean as the used to be. I let it fill and noticed it is only filling about a half inch, no where neer the element. Could this be the problem. Also the detergent doesn't always wash out of the dispencer. Thanks in advance.
