I have a dishwasher that decided to go on a strike, it turns on and all that, but doesn't wash. (no water jets)
When I opened it up I noticed some light heat/burn smell similar to plastic burning, and unable to pinpoint it exactly.
The two motors turn, the smaller top one seems to be some kinda step motor.
The large motor needs force to turn, it wont spin if I stop spinning it, it's not much force needed but some.
I checked the capacitor that connects to the large motor and it seems like it's dead.
Do I test it like normal Electrolytic capacitors or?
I noticed there were no markings of a positive or negative markings on it, is it perhaps non-polarized capacitor?
Is it enough for me to replace it or could something else have damaged also?
