The technician from Sears came out today to hopefully fix our dishwasher. As soon as he is down on the floor he makes a comment about having a rodent problem. Seems a wire was chewed through. He went out to his truck and got a part and and came in and fixed it. Told me because he could fix it with the little part I was good.....no charge, but if it had meant the wiring harness needed to be rebuilt or replaced the warranty would not cover it because it was rodent damage. Rodent damage is not covered in the warranty.
Then he showed me the insulation under the machine. Joy. He set the machine to drain and he finished his paperwork. Turned around and there is water on the floor. The rat's parting gift to me was it chewed the drainage hose. Seems this is where we came in. And hopefully this is where we go out. I have a new hose on order. The tech wasn't going to do anything because I need an exterminator. Nope. I'm good. I can replace that part myself. I'm sure it would have been a lovely charge if he would have been willing to do it.
So now I am waiting for the insulation to dry out a bit, so I can clean up the rat mess of insulation. The part will be here next week and then maybe I will have a working dishwasher. Oy.
