Putting a fused 13A plug and socket in an in accessible place behind a dishwasher is bad practice as if the fuse fails it is not accessible.
The correct way is an outlet plate with a fused switched spur in an accessible place labelled "Dishwasher"
Your fail could be a very tight bend in the PVC cable causing the wire to migrate with time until it shorts, odd though that the earth conductor may be still continuous.
