Here is my unit in case anyone is interested. it lights up and runs through the cycles, but there is no water run to it so I've never used it nor believe it's been used for some time. |

Moen made that faucet for several dishwasher-sink combo's. I have a parts break-down somewhere at home I will locate and scan. You might be able to repair it by replacing the o-rings. |

SteveD, that would be amazing if you could locate that. Thanks. I will do some research on Moen myself. |

This would just be a temporary fix until you find the parts: in the last days of our unit like that, my mom used a toothpick to keep the handle up....she just put it in the hole that appears when you raise the handle........... |

Jordan, I would possibly be interested in the unit as a whole, should you decide to remove it and sell. I believe that I see rust along the bottom edge of both the sink door and front dishwasher panel. Condition of the dishwasher itself will be important. I am sorry, but I cannot comment on the faucet, due to my lack of knowledge of the Hotpoint Sinks. If you could provide the Model Number and Serial Number, I have microfiche that might depict the faucet assembly, which I could photograph and post for you to look at. Here is the Hotpoint Electric Sink that I have, which I attribute to 1949. I am uncertain what year that your unit is from. The faucet on my unit has been partially replaced with a more modern one. (I currently have 11 complete Electric Sink units in my collection, with two more to be picked up from the Eastern States soon.) Mike |

in taking a closer look at your dishwasher pic, I'm wondering if you have the Barnes style..... is the end of the faucet control knob tapered black plastic? If it is then it might not be a Moen. |
