I had dozed off in my chair at my computer (room next to the kitchen) and woke up smelling something burnt. Steve came into the kitchen about the same time, and wondered abouyt the smell, too.
We observed that the kitchen outlets (refrigerator, microwave and dishwasher) were off. Steve went to the breaker box at the other end of the house, found a tripped breaker, and reset it.
I was in the utility room off the kitchen putting out some cat food, and i heard a HEAVY arc somewhere in the kitchen, and the breaker tripped again.
The dishwasher apparently has an internal electrical problem.
This is a picture of an area on the inside of the dishwasher door where the plastic inner panel has been partly melted in an area about two inches long.
So we gotta get the landlord to install a new one.
