Allen---- At your house, I would not be so quick as to interrogate Karen. You have some four legged members who might have added those items when backs were turned. Just saying. Lawrence/Maytagbear | ||

I had a similar problem with my  rental on the Cape, the DW a KUDS-27 was washing terribly, it couldn't release and drain coffee grounds. I knew it wasn't pumping well so last winter it was a complete rebuild. When I got in there, inside the wash module I found most inlet ports blocked up by chipped glass shards from wine glasses. I found two - NOT ONE - TWO silicone feet from an old cutting board jammed into the drain port. Once all the was out it runs like a charm now. I'm thinking of only putting in acrylic wine glasses during rental season now.

@ Allen
Ever try to shake cellophane off your fingers? Like from Twinkie wrappers, other baked goods, window envelopes, coldcut party trays. Too easy to stick to a damp glass or plate unseen. Toothpix, I know at least two fellows who have fixed bridges like mine who carry a couple in their wallets. And I'm sure some gals do in their handbags as well. Leaving them on a plate/saucer may be bad manners, but possible. The twist-ties are a mystery. Do you do sandwich/toast prep over where the d/w is? Accidental drops can happen, especially over 5 years. I do save those twist-ties for re-use on bags to go in the freezer, leftovers, prepped salad in plastic bags, or even to bag cat litter for the garbage. Maybe an errant one goes flying?
Glad you found the solution and avoided a New Year's curse. Many would have just gone to THD for a replacement model! | ||

Something I've noticed recently with my dishwasher
just within the past two loads........It washes normally, but there's this noise it makes that I can only describe similar to that sound you get when your ear starts to ring; not overly loud. At first, I actually thought it was my ear ringing or something until I realized it was the dishwasher. It's kind of subtle - but it's constant. It will be 9 years old in April. I hope it doesn't die!

Check around the sump to make sure nothing has fallen into it. It could be just the vibration from the upper rack making the noise. What brand DW do you have? | ||
