As much as I am annoyed at the way this machines leaves "YIBBLES" on the glasses, and apparently this is a well-known fact and issue with this machine (see link), I am more concerned with the fact that the vent does not appear to open at any time even during the "Dry" phase.

The vent should stay closed 6 minutes after the drying cycle has started and then open to let the steam escape. But since you tore the whole thing out anyway, to heck with it! |

~You should hear it at the beginning of the cycle close, and when it starts to dry it will open. Doesn't; ever. I only know of how it should work in that my basment GE GSD5300D00ww DOES have a power vent that actually opens and closes! CLICK HERE TO GO TO toggleswitch's LINK |

I'm sure this wax motor on this vent is fuse protected, the one on my original Asko dishwasher wasn't and when it went bad, it took the control board with it. A similar thing happened with the first-series Maytag Neptune washers and the door-lock mechanism. WP is using wax motors all over the place - they also are (or were at last check) used to control the valve that runs the Turbo-Zone wash system, diverting water flow from the upper wash arm to the nozzles. |

This perhaps explains the burnt orignal control board and the (subsequent)lack of venting! I'm thinking the fuse didn't go as fast as it should have, only to blow later. |
