Hello Everyone
I am super impressed by the resources on your site! I think I should be in the right place to get some help with my "new" dishwasher. I recently purchased a bungalow that has come with lots of fun surprises including a portable dishwasher. I finally hooked it up and ran it last weekend and it worked great until it entered the part of the cycle when it drains and water started coming out on the floor. It wasn't much water, truthfully I hate doing dishes by hand so much I might even say it is an acceptable amount if it means I don't have to wash dishes anymore. But alas my husband does not consider it an acceptable amount of water :) so I am in search of the service manual to see what I can do about it. But first I have to figure out what version I have which brings me here...

I'm including several photos. One thing I noticed when I flipped over the dishwasher this morning in search of the leak source is that it used to be an avocado/green and has since been painted an almond/ivory color to match the rest of the appliances in the kitchen. After looking through several posts on here I think I have identified the sanitized air diffuser to be the source of the leak. I'm including photos of that too in case anyone has an idea of what I should do about it.

Any help is greatly appreciated and I thank you in advance!!
