Anyone else here unlucky enough to be involved in that Maytag dishwasher
recall?
We received the kit and had it installed on May 14, but from that point on
the unit is dead as a doorknob.
Appears that the controlboard goes south after the old wiring harness is
removed and you have to wait for a new one to be manufactured & shipped
from
who knows where. It's been 8 weeks now and the wife has collared me for
dish
drying by hand for the last 6.
We're both getting fed up..and to make matters worse, you have to deal
with
a call center who e-mail Maytag..who ignore the e-mails.
Sure do miss the good old days where that 'dog faced' repairman was just
hanging around looking for something to break so he'd have work to do.



That was the late Gordon Jump. They have some new guy now.


btw,

Never set the dishwasher and leave the house. We used to own a GE
Potscrubber. The thing caught fire but luckily was contained
inside the plastic enclosure. When I removed it, It was a wad
of melted plastic and wires. Im sure glad it didn't burn my house
down.

I have installed all Maytag appliances in the spec houses I've built in the
last few years. I really don't see a big difference in the quality compared
to the GE.

Nope... the original guy was a Jessie White (no relation)
Maytag dumped him to bring in Mr Carlson from WKRP in Cincinatti (Gordon
Jump)
