Default Dishwasher problem

Just called my parts house. None available, factory order, expected date
about Feb 15. Retail about $170.


With the part around $ 170 and the ebay part about $ 90, a new dishwasher
from Lowes can be bought for $ 300 to $ 400. Good thing the thing is under
warranty. If not It would be time to buy a new one. They could bring it
out in a couple of days.

Hard to believe it would take 2 months to get a part. They should pull the
part off a new unit and use it if the washer is only a year old. That part
seems to be used on many washers.

I have found it almost useless to repair anything when the parts are as
expensive as they are. If you can do the work and supply the labor you may
come out ok.
