odd thinking about this taking the upper basket with spray arm
attached outdoors and using garden hose to apply water arm wouldnt
turn. I think that elminates the pump as the cause. Pump might be bad
anyway but garden hose should make it spin.
so temp isnt it.
i ordered a arm, near as i can tell no one here stocks them.
next dishwasher will NOT be a bosch!
