The left side of the control panel has a big crack running right thru the logo of the machine. Wonder if it's replaceable or would that have to be repaired.
I've repaired a lot of lucite/acrylic things like this, but I suspect it'd be hard to do it imperceptibly. More than likely, a replacement would have to be sourced from a donor machine (if you could even find one).
It looks like the original to me. It looks like it has the indent up above for the small items basket and I think that was removed from later models. I just took this. Sorry it's full of dishes.
In exactly the same spot!! I think it's fairly large area for a fairly thin piece of plastic. I really don't know how it happened. I woke up one morning and noticed it was cracked.
They will be sorry when they use a new DW after having a real one!! less than 1 hour and your dishes are clean and dry!!Whatever they replace it with will run 2 or 3 hours...wont clean as well, and certainly wont dry as well!!!
