    GE

    WOW Looks brand new,Well worth the price considering anything you could buy today with double ovens would be at least a thousand, and not near the quality of this unit, love the positioning of the buttons so you don't have to reach over the burners.

    Maytag Neptune dryer restoration

    I had the same model as your's and it needed the same cleaning when I got it,but mine had a locked up motor when I got it so it had to be torn down anyway,so if you still have it apart I would check the grease in the motor bearings, the end caps pop right off,the grease in mine had dried up,I...

    Vintage Air Conditioner Help-Advice Needed

    Looks great for its age,1970's, New units here with the salt air look like that after just a couple of years, Didn't mean to scare you about the capacitor,just use caution,There is a way to discharge the capacitor, or you can use insulated handle pliers if you need to remove a connector from the...

    Vintage Air Conditioner Help-Advice Needed

    sounds like a burnt wire on the capacitor, if it is not mounted on the outside near the compressor it is inside the control panel, Its should be an easy fix, just dont touch the capacitor,they stay charged even with the unit unplugged. check that and see if you see a loose or burnt wire

    A plea for help with the 56 GE LW-11 refrigerator

    All good questions The next thing I would do is bypass the overload protector for just a moment to see if the compressor will start,these things fail esp. at this age, If the compressor is cool it will do no harm to run it without the fan connected,If it starts and runs I'd replace the...

    A plea for help with the 56 GE LW-11 refrigerator

    Are you able to get the compressor to start without the fan connected?,If not I'd check the thermal overload protector,This was a common problem when I worked on a/c,s and fridges. You should be able to use this new fan motor,By looking at the diagram the middle wire of the old one is going to...

    Explosion + burning smell: still working?

    The dishwasher may be ok It could just be the electrical connection, You say it it only has this problem when the heating element comes on, the motor and pump doesn't use many amps but the heating element does, If a connection is not tight enough it could cause a pop and burning smell, if the...

    Nordicware Microwave Pressure Cooker

    Does anyone have or used one of these,I found a new one without instructions,at first I thought, no way am I going to put that bomb in my microwave, then I read the reviews and they were all great, The only thing I'm not sure about is the two steamer like things that go on the bottom, are they...
