-{{ :​repairs:​dishwasher:​door-open.jpg?​direct&​300|}}Two weeks before the [[https://​openrepair.org/​international-repair-day/​ | International Repair Day 2021]], our 16 year old dishwasher from 2005 packed it in. It came with the house, and was pretty old back then. We never used it all that much over the years. But recently it has been used more, and I guess the old girl couldn'​t cope.+{{ :​repairs:​dishwasher:​door-open.jpg?​direct&​300|}}Two weeks before the [[https://​openrepair.org/​international-repair-day/​ | International Repair Day 2021]], our 26 year old dishwasher from 1995 packed it in. It came with the house, and was pretty old back then. We never used it all that much over the years. But recently it has been used more, and I guess the old girl couldn'​t cope.

-I dug out a few spare microswitches,​ mostly some cannibalised good brands with a high voltage rating. One was a new switch ​for my pinball machine projects, but I don't know the rating for that one.+I dug out a few spare microswitches,​ mostly some cannibalised good brands with a high voltage rating.

 +The EPROM above gives some clue of the date of the machine as 1995.

 +BrokenYugo from the [[https://​www.eevblog.com/​forum | eevblog forum]] managed to date the dishwasher using the date code (9444) of the LM339 chip in the image above. ​

 +<WRAP center round info 90%>
 +1995 seems more likely for a PDIP EPROM or microcontroller in a consumer grade appliance, same for the axial electrolytic capacitor. I could be wrong but I read the date code on the LM339 as 44th week of 94.
