Ooh, sorry I missed this last night, that does explain a lot -although not the disparity between the top and bottom rack that has appeared. Glad we haven't forked out for a new one yet.....

My old one is in the basement somewhere, but it's a Sharp and wasn't working last time I found it, even with new batteries. I loved that calculator.

car, pretty sure the fault with the battery light is the battery light itself -yup loose wire. Can't be arsed to deal in this cold weather, will have to wait for spring... lights has us stumped. They were staying on. We bought the maintenace manual, checked the circuits, cleaned all the contacts ...and then it was Michigan winter and far too effing cold to be messing about with cars, so beest just pulled the fuse. But it gets old.
Everything is made to be broken so you have to buy a new one and keep the company in China in business. Round and Round it goes....

Explains a lot, I noticed the Palmolive detergent we had said "eco friendly, no phopshate" I knew this was a bad sign.

The interior of the door is caked with a white crust, the top spinner was compeletly clogged too, I expect that there is build up inside somehwere harder to reach .

In the article one woamn has bought Phosphate fromt he store and is adding it back in, might be wortha try.
