It's a bad sign when your dishwasher starts to smoke. We had just finished running through the enormous pile of post-Christmas dishes, and I was out getting carry-out... my wife called to let me know that the dishwasher had taken up a smoking habit. We had noticed a burning plastic smell a couple of days ago, but had not been able to figure out what it was - at the time, we thought maybe we just had too many things plugged into to that circuit. Now it's clear - an expensive appliance was demanding more money. Sigh...
