The dishwasher motor has started to run continuously when switched off. What can I do?

Hi I pulled the machine out and tilted it because the tap indicator light came on. It now seems to be working again but not sure for how long. I noticed there is a lot of grease/gunk in the pressure chamber. How do I remove all this without having to dismantle the whole thing? I am running...

who!

not quite electricity - but does anyone know where i can get an icemaker with a generator which can be used in the tropics?

I was trying to change a light switch in the hallway of a house which has a 2 way switch. Unfortunately I did not take note of the wires and I am now not sure which is common , L1 or L2. I thought since they were all the same colour it did not matter. the living room and kitchen lights work...
