Do I Really Have to Buy a New Dishwasher for This?

[TPro]

Hello, I hope you're having a great day  This is about my Bosch SHX65P05UC/63 dishwasher.

The rinse aid dispenser is not working, and I have not been able to get a new one due to supply chain issues, according to the parts company that has my part on backorder. Meanwhile, is there anything I can do? I was thinking it would be nice if I could figure out some sort of workaround. Or should I just leave the stuff out? We do have very hard water.

Thanks for any help with this.

Only workaround is to manually put in rinse aid at the last wash cycle. Other than that you can read the user manual and turn off the rinse aid dispenser but then it'll wake up deposits on other parts.
