Hi! Can Anyone Help Me?!
I have a Kenmore 15685 dishwasher, and I broke a big glass pot lid in it today. Thousands of shards immediately gravitated into the little crevices between the vents and screen of the filter.
It looks like I could shop vac the glass out pretty easily & thoroughly, if I could only get the filter assembly off! It's bolted in there by what looks like one centered hex bolt atop a black rubbery-looking disc (maybe the top of the pump?), but when I try to loosen the bolt, it just spins--not like it's stripped or anything, but like it's spinning because that's what it's supposed to do when the dishwasher's running.
I'm really hoping this is something I can do myself, although my gut tells me this is some weird thing Sears has done to keep their service dept. busy. Hopefully I'm wrong. I've got houseguests coming in 2 days and I have to run the dishwasher constantly as it is!! Thanks!
