Thanks. I'll see if I can take it apart without breaking it. If I could get a part number and actually find another thermostat, I'd buy another just to have an extra one anyway.

Hello all, been a while since I last posted. My '58 Frigidaire that I've had for about a decade now is giving me an issue where the compressor won't stop running unless I put the thermostat to the "OFF" position or almost to the "OFF" position. There are five different settings on the...

Thanks to both responses. @goatfarmer : Ok, I have a NOS lid switch on the way already. If the lid switch doesn't correct the issue, do you know if the timer that's used on this machine is the same as any of the later machines? Part numbers would be helpful if anyone has them.. @bendixmark...

Thanks to all responses. @tomturbomatic : The machine does operate with the lid open and it does NOT make a clicking noise when opening the lid. @swestoyz : Yes Tom confirmed my hunch. Thank you for the wiring diagram and the part numbers, that made my life a little easier finding the switch...

These are local to me, however I have no intention of getting them. Maybe someone here will? http://medford.craigslist.org/app/5825475641.html

How can anyone look at the inside of that fridge and still think "mid century"?

@melissa: A fire is one of my worst nightmares. I could only imagine what you went through. Did you know or find out what the cause of the fire was?

That Hotpoint brings back some memories. My parents bought that same exact Hotpoint washer with matching dryer back in '89 or '90 at Circuit City and last time I was at their place a year ago they still had the dryer and it was still working fine. They got rid of the washer in '06 because the...

Wish that green one was closer. :-(

@goatfarmer: Exactly my thoughts.

@rp2813 That's what I was guessing, thanks for clarifying.
