The dishwasher is bricked in? Sheesh, how did they even manage that?
Fortunately most things can be accessed by removing the kick plate. The
water inlet is a solenoid valve normally in the left-front corner of the
machine. It will attach with a compression fitting which you can disconnect
and then you should be able to remove the valve and clean it out. I suspect
your clog is right there.

OK. As suspected, the power inverter creates "noise" which of course
affects the AM radio signal reception.

Another trick to totally avoid the plastic drain valve is to have a 3/4"
pipe fitting ready that can attach to a hose, then unscrew and remove
the gas valve and thermostat assembly and slide the pipe and hose in its
place.

In North America, the basic signal standards since 1941 have been
compatible enough that even the oldest monochrome televisions can
still receive color broadcasts in 2007. However, the United States
Congress has passed a law which requires the cessation of all
conventional television broadcast signals by February 2009. If the
law
is not changed again, then after that date all NTSC standard
televisions, with analog-only tuners, will go dark unless fitted with
digital ATSC tuners, and the spectrum previously occupied by those
analog channels will be auctioned off by the United States' Federal
Communications Commission for other uses. The analog cut-off date has
been changed by Congress in the past.
The key word here is "broadcast". Analog TVs will continue to work just fine
on cable systems.
The people on CNN managed to thoroughly mis-explain this yesterday.

Don't bother replacing the WH drain now. Fix the clogged dishwasher
instead.
Replace that factory drain valve in six months when you flush the
WH for your first maintenance interval.
As for that clogged dishwasher, you'll likely have to break the
bricks bricking it in in order to get to the innards.
Good luck. Ask questions. Take advice with a grain of salt.

donna is a nice new home owner. before you know it she will be like
most of us long termers, doing what we must, and ignoring drain
valves etc.
all she needs is doing one preventive maintence job that turns a
working whatever into a non functional disaster that costs a fortune
to fix.
i rather imagine most of us have been thru one of those.
kinda like pruning a tree, having a limb fall onto the roof, while
replacing ?damaged shingles fall off roof, hit power line, ripping
it off the side of the house. fortunately the poor fellow didnt get
shocked, or seriously hurt.
but the colateral costs, pay someone to finish tree trimming and
clean up, pay electrician to put service back on house, losts food
in fridge, power was off too long. my friend, spent nearly 2 days in
hospital, sent home on crutches.missed a week work no sick
time.......
this happened to a guy i knew.
a old neighbor decided to replace his bathroom floor. lose
floorboard, ran nail into water line, flood took down kitchen
cieling..
need plumber, new cieling and contracted out bathroom redo.
so he decided cars would be his thing, took air cleaner off to
adjust carbuerator, reved engine, air cleaner housing dropped into
fan went thru radiator.
tow truck, new fan, new radiator, misc repairs, had carb replaced.
new DIYers be careful so we dont add your story to the list
my memorable event
did some plumbing, opened main valve with one connection still open
to flush lines, main valve failed couldnt shut off, had to call
water company who had great trouble finding main valve, as street
had been raised........
could of got arrested so upset i forgot to pay for valve at hardware
store, i just walked out, no register stop, the store owner who knew
me thought it funny, as my shoies went squish squish waterlogged as
i walked out..
just a memorable day for a home repairer.
a buddy of mine in detroit was doing some wiring, turned breaker
back on, all power in building went out, fact all power from
detroit to new york. that big power failure from some years
ago........... wasnt his fault but just imagine
now that was funny!!!!!
Never had even a single one of those, and I physically built the

They usually have one in the water inlet solenoid itself. Thankfully the
intake plumbing on a dishwasher is really simple. Copper tubing to a
compression fitting at the solenoid valve, and a hose out of that through a
nozzle into the washer compartment. The recirculation plumbing that does the
washing is separate and very hard to clog.
