i am in mourning over this whole thing. seriously.
i wasn't prepared for it, and now i've got to say goodbye... to my dishwasher.
darned thing. granted, it was probably 20 years old, but it still worked. until i pulled the bottom tray out and the spickety thing that comes up from the bottom of the dishwasher didn't retract far enough and i pulled the rack and it broke the effing thing off.
i tried to see if i could repair it, but the part that's broken is attached TO the bottom of the floor of the washer... i think that this model is out of existence.
anyway, i just shelled out $438.76 for a new one and installation.
Whatchoosayin'?? (4 yapped)
Silly you... I needed the laugh this morning
*hugs*

You can find lots of old parts at repairclinic.com. Lots of info on how to do the repairs yourself too.

Hi GC,
Hope you got a good energy star rated dishwasher so you can at least get a rebate from your local energy company!

I grieve with you at the loss of your dishwasher. Until now I have not commented on your posts, but this affected me personaly. I, too, have lost appliances that came along with my 1917 house. I know the pain of inconvenience. I feel for you. Come talk to me when your pre WWII sewer line blows.....
