That cutting board top will have to be removed. Look for some screws at the underside front. | ||

Hi Dynaflow, where is the drain hose coming out? Through the top, or straight out the back? I have the built in version of this one and stenciled on the back of the machine is a requirement to have a loop at least 24" above the ground. If you get the hose down low, it starts with littls spurts coming out whilst it washes. | ||

but maybe you will get back up this way sometime to see my turquoise sister to your Dishmobile. Please don't give up on it. With all the sweet, helpful and technically skilled people on here, your DW is bound to get some help and have a future. If it's of any help to keep you inspired, I posted the link to the thread from 11-16-09 when I got mine home. Lots of good info there from members who were cheering me on. Good luck with the unit and keep us posted as to it's progress.

If it's the same timer as in my 1969 Custom Imperial, the two tabs on the motor gear might be broken. I was able to fix mine with Loctite 495 glue but that's a temporary fix! I just ordered a new one on eBay...
But first remove yours (it's located below the dishwasher, remove the lower panels, then remove the two screws that hold the braket to the right "leg" of the dishwasher, then remove the two screws that hold the timer to the bracket (those on each side of the timer manual advance shaft) after that, remove the two screws that hold the round timer motor (not the rectangular rapid advance motor), disconnect the two motor wires on the timer plug them on a 110 volt wire to see what happens. If the gear doesn't turn, it's very likely to have the same problem as mine had and the one shown on the links above. Then follow the procedures on Davesrepair website...
I just ran mine for a complete cycle and eveything works now!
