The hot water supply line for my GE dishwasher partially melted a hose on the drain pump.
Yesterday, my dishwasher wouldn't drain. After determining that the drain lines were clear, I began to look at the drain pump. I took it off and noticed that the rubber hose that connects it to the sump was pretty well melted but still holding. After looking some more, I saw that the hot water supply line must have been laying on that hose (yes, I am the one that installed it).
Has anyone seen this before?
My wife is out picking up a new pump now. Even if that's not the actual problem, I am replacing it because it looked like the melted part could go at any time. Anyway, I'm just curious if anyone else has ever seen this. The hose that was melted is the one at the left of the picture below. It's very soft rubber (or rubber like material).
Thanks!
