Are you sure the water is turned on? Wouldn't be the first time someone thought they turned it on but hadn't.

Not plumbing, but same idea: I had a friend who did IT support for a large corporation. He once drove 6 hours to a remote site to troubleshoot some problems. He turned on their power strip and all was well....

Yes. I double-checked.

my dishwasher shutoff valve was leaking and so I just put another one in line after it. Plumber probably shook his head at that when he unstuck the sink.
I suppose I should remove the leaky one someday to remove the possibility of shenanigans.

About a gallon of water poured into the bottom of the unit fixed the problem.

Normally I'd charge $75, but since this wasn't an actual house call, I'll settle for $50

I just got an email from the Woodnet Community something about the microwave plans I requested. Must be attached to that. I'll be sure to open it
