What would be the advantage for the consumer be of their dish washer connected to the internet? Let’s say there is a problem with operation, or sends a code to Maytag, then what? Couldn’t the code just flash a signal to the consumer so they can get the repair man out to fix it?

Couldn’t the code just flash a signal to the consumer so they can get the repair man out to fix it?...actually my wife heard a story from one of her friends about a broken appliance - washing machine I think - her family had - they called the company to see about getting it fixed, and the tech on the other end of the line had her hold the phone up to the machine and press some combination of buttons - the machine let out a series of beeps, apparently a self-diagnosis, and the tech was able to tell the woman what was wrong with the machine and how much the repairs would be - hearsay of course, but maybe.......
