Wow! I am very impressed that you fixed the problem with charcoal. I just checked that charcoal has good conductivity so you are right it works. Smart lady, we are very pride of you! By the way, it has been many years since I initially posted this instructables, and I am glad to say that my dishwasher still works with the original fix. Well, I fixed it a couple of more times with the front panel including the thermal fuse, so it is pretty much beat up. The motor is still running strong though. Cheers!
