Hi everyone! I recently picked up this KitchenAid portable dishwasher off of Facebook marketplace for $75. Due to some complicated issues it was in storage for about a month until I moved into my new place. Now that I'm fully moved in I wanted to get this thing up and running so I didn't have to do those pesky dishes by hand.
This is where I have run into a couple issues, the first issue came from my ignorance on these devices as a whole, I realized the seller never gave me the faucet adapter. I have tried a couple different ones off of amazon and a local hardware store and none of them fit to the coupler. The second issue I'm running into is that I'm not even sure it turns on, is the light supposed to turn on when plugged in or is that only something that turns on during a cycle? If there are any ways for me to tell the electrical side of it is okay let me know.
If there are any other servicing tips you would recommend before turning it on please let me know as I want to make sure I don't break it. I have only seen great things online about these and how powerful/reliable they are so I would love to see it up and running.
For some context I am not the most knowledgeable on dishwashers or appliances in general so I may need a more simple explanation than some others here. I am however excited to work on this and hopefully see it up and running so any assistance or advice is seriously appreciated.
Thank you!
