That sounds like what is going on. Thanks! Sure appreciate everyone's help!

Thanks! Back to doing its job. One more question: since I got it and more so now the cycles don't seem to be working quite right. Sometimes it fills then right away without churning drains. I don't see the heat light coming on any more. I think enough is working and the thing powerful...

Humbled, learning and determined. Is it safe to give it another try paying careful attention to a better connection or is it likely I also burned something up in the dishwasher? Thanks John L.

I think I might have found the problem when I went to change out this machine with an ISE I found recently. Not a great picture but the wire nut on one connection to the power source is totally melted. The other wire nut is fine. What could have caused this? They were both well taped with...

Does this dishwasher have a thermal fuse? Is this a possibility for why it's not working? Any other ideas on what could be going on?

Eronie, I found the pin you were talking about. Glad to know more about this machine. But the seems to be working fine, pin intact and making a clicking sound. Thanks for the suggestion.

Thanks cuffs 54. I was able to clean up the heating element and it seems solid and it does seem to be heating the water properly (aside from today when I can't get it to run at all). I use the no heat dry option. But in the future if we decide to disconnect it, that's all helpful advice...

Thanks for the suggestions. Mine has a handle in the middle that goes up and down. I took things a part around the handle and opened that top panel up couldn't see anything broken though I don't really know what I'm looking for. The handle is working like it had before. Where would I find...

Went to runner the dishwasher this morning and I heard maybe a click then nothing. I've turned the dial around, opened and closed it, switched the breaker. Nothing. My next attempts are to clean out underneath around the motor, check the electrical outlet, and then maybe take apart under the...

I was able to replace the whole filter unit from a $10 ISE dishwasher on Craigslist. I never could get just the filter to come loose on mine even after taking the screws out and trying to pry it off. Things seem to be working good but after about 4 loads, there is debris building up under that...

Thanks! You all give me confidence I can keep this beauty going. I just picked up a donor machine today so am eager to swap out the filter and hopefully have it up and going. If that doesn't solve the dirty top rack issue, I may need to ask for clarification on the other parts you mentioned...

My dishwasher has been leaving the tops of bowls on the top rack with bits of food on them. Also the filter had a small rip in it and when I attempted to take things a part for the first time I completely ripped the filter apart as can been seen in the photo below. There was a large amount of...

After years of trouble with modern dishwashers I got a Kitchenaid Custom 21 for $20 on craigslist. I'm thrilled. But I also want to have a back up or one for spare parts. There is one listed for another $20 that I'm considering. What parts on these might be interchangeable? Thanks! I'm new...
