Not a repair question, just a curiosity ponder.
My Bosh dishwasher is about 24 years old now. From what I have seen when stripping them down, under the skin, the design has changed very little.
If anything the construction quality of new stuff is lower.
But, one thing I have noticed is that the water fill tanks/matrix are usually a lot smaller or non-existent in newer machines.
It seems newer machines direct fill from the mains without any pre-storage.
The smaller tanks may be part water saving, but many seem to have no tank at all.
My machine uses a mechanical pressure valve and switch to determine when the tank is full to stop the fill and tell the dishwasher it is ready to go.
Do the modern machines perhaps rely on some kind of electronic metering enabling them to do away with a stored water tank of a measured amount?
It's the only thing I can think of. It probably saves costs too....probably at the expense of reliability.
