How do you fix a broken dishwasher mounting bracket?

If you are talking about the bracket that mounts the dishwasher to the underside of the counter top to prevent it from "walking out", I have found that the EZ Bracket is the best answer. It is available at Stone Tool Distributors like Braxton-Bragg.

The website is

The thing that I like is that you can use it either before or after the counter top is in place and it works on Granite, Formica or other counter top materials. It is inexpensive and easy to use.

You do not have to drill into the granite, which is a relief.

Ok, let's take a look at this; Here is what I found on your code, this is also the same as a whirlpool model. F06 means Drive motor tachometer

How do you get melted plastic off dishwasher heating coils?

If you can "freeze" the coil with ice cubes wrapped around it, you can chip most of the plastic off the heating element. A short, fairly sharp knife is the best tool for this, as it will allow you the most control of the edge of the tool. You can then apply a wire brush to the element, and with some willingness and elbow grease, you can finish the job. It will be tedious, but it can be done with patience and perseverance. A hint of the plastic might remain "out of reach" of the brush, and a couple of cycles might effect removal of that last little bit. But most of the work is yours to do. Remember that your approach here is a mechanical one, and not a chemical one. Also, make a quick call to or drop by at an appliance expert's place of business and just ask a quick question or two. You should be able to get some hints from these folks, as this is their business. With tact and some brief and direct questions (so as to avoid taking up too much of their time), a bit of assistance should be forthcoming.

What could be wrong with my GE dishwasher Triton XL when it has power and water to the intake valve but it does not start the water when you hit start?

1) The flood switch has open circuited due to overload or mechanical failure.

2) The solenoid coil has open circuited or the solenoid plunger is stuck in the housing.

3) The wire screen filter in the solenoid assembly is totally clogged with debris.

4) The control circuit board has failed.

5) The isolation valve in the water line feeding the appliance is closed.

I've got this failure mode now ... and in my case ... the flood switch open circuited due to overload ... and as a result of the control circuit board failure.
