Power is carried to the components of the dishwasher by a network of insulated wires. These wires are connected to
the timer, switches and other dishwasher components by means of push-on connectors.
It is very important that the wiring be free of any damage. Any cut that reduces the diameter of the wire reduces
the amount of power it will carry. Also, the wire may overheat and eventually break at that point. If the terminals
become dull and oxidized they should be replaced.
Whenever servicing the wiring harness be sure to note the of any green and / or yellow/brown ground wires in the
area in which you are working. Be certain all are properly connected upon completion of service. This is vital to
avoid danger of shock or short circuit.
CAUTIONCAUTION: If replacement wire is required, use only appliance wire having the same temperature and guage rating
as the wire you are replacing. This information is usually printed on the wire itself.
