How do you clean dishwasher with white vinegar?
Vinegar is acidic and will attack limescale. White vinegar is therefore useful to descale a kettle in hard water areas in preference to expensive chemicals. It is also less harmful should you drink any and has a strong taste so you can tell it has been washed out. It will react more vigorously when hot so be careful when boiling the kettle with too strong a solution in it.
Similarly for dishwashers use neat on scaled areas but rinse well and do not leave on for too long without testing a small area first. When reaction with limescale takes place gas is produced so don't heat up in sealed containers.

Kitchen faucet doesn't work but dishwasher does?
Possibly unscrew your aerator at the end of the spout and see if the screen is clogged. Blow it out and rescrew the aerator on. If that isn't the problem, sometimes things get caught in the spout. Unscrew the spout and turn the water on. If there is water coming from there and not out the spout when it is hooked up, the spout is plugged. If no water coming out when the spout is off, rehook spout and change cartridges or stems in the faucet AFTER shutting the water off. Depends on the brand of faucet, check the instructions for the brand and model.
Also your kitchen dishwasher and sinks are run on seperate valves. The dishwasher valve is usually under the sinks (causing the water to go to the dishwasher first) the valve that was installed for the sink (before the dishwasher) may be bad too.
