Resolved - thank you Combo52! Thanks again Combo. Installed yesterday and we are 100% functional. Easy fix once properly diagnosed.

Thanks Thanks combo. Found one on Ebay for $41 incl. shipping. Ordered. Cheers.

I have a Kenmore model 2130. Belt drive, hencho en Mexico. I believe it is a re-branded Whirlpool 2130 that can be seen in this YouTube video. Following any rinse cycle, the machine acts up in spin mode. No exceptions. Wash cycle appears normal. At the end of any rinse cycle, the red 'lock...

Thanks for the comment Pulsator. That got the wheels turning. We are back in business. I dumped a couple buckets of water in the tub and let the machine finish the agitate cycle. That got the timing sequences all straightened out. We are AOK & all systems go. Solenoid is holding up just fine...

Thanks for the info Pulsator. Yes, the machine agitates with no water. Interesting, I did notice that the water level switch was in between high & reset when the problem began. The switch has 4 positions: low - medium - high and reset. I'll check out the switch & wires and report back.

Greetings. Long time no wisit. Some of you may recall a thread on my old 60's vinage Norge LWA 2040 A 00 20 pounder from 2011: http://www.automaticwasher.org/cgi-bin/TD/TD-VIEWTHREAD.cgi?32280 Back then, some of you helped me solve a solenoid issue. Thanks again, hope yer all doing well. Some...

Monday is wash day!!! Duh. Forgot to close lid to let machine fully cycle. This machine came with the house we've been in for 5 years. I believe it was purchased new by the original owners. Matching dryer, if there ever was one, is long gone. House was rented out for 1 year to a European cross...

=( Replaced solenoid = no go. Tub still does not fill at beginning of wash/agitate cycle. It goes straight to agitate. The next cycle is supposed to be cool-down, but the timer/dial just hangs at that point. Any ideas much appreciated.

Eek a mouse! This is sadly humorous. I found a solenoid locally for $15. Jackpot! Picking it up today. I've been putzing with the machine and discovered that it no longer fills with water. When setting up a new wash cycle, I turn the control dial as usual to the first position. Normally, the...

Need Brake Solenoid for Norge LWA 2040 A 00 (PN 33-6357 or 3 Ha ha. Yeah, I can get some photos but I'm scrambling to find a replacement solenoid. Care to see some really old dust bunnies? Original part number 33-6357. Substitute part number 35-0472. I have found a couple for $50-$60 but that...

May have solution. Thanks laundromat and Aloha! I think I found the culprit. In my attached photo below, there is an arrow pointing to a bolt that serves as the pivot for an arm that disengages the agitate cycle to allow a spin. The bolt is loose but badly corroded. The arm has a lot of play...

I have a Norge washer model LWA 2040 A 00. Approximate vintage: 1967. The agitate cycle works fine. The spin cycle does not. Water is drained from tub in spin cycle but tub does not turn/spin. The lid switch seems to work just fine, the tub just doesn't spin. No unusual sounds. Any suggestions.
