Built like a tank! Very heavy machines. I had a portable base model. I guess the solid wood top was part of the heft, but the thick steel base was also. I liked the fan drying on it. | ||

Non Draining MT DW Did it drain as soon as you tried turning the timer to a drain cycle earlier in the cycle ?
If not the motor probably overheated, if it only skips the drains at the end of the cycle you may have a bad timer.
Parts can still be found for this DW, I have several good used pump&motors for these DWs if you need one $100+ shipping.
In any event try running the machine again, I have seen motors overheat when people got carried away adding sound proofing insulation under the DW.
