Pete, I don't have a specific manual for this machine, however I am pretty sure that I have a wiring diagram in a GE Repair-Master for dishwashers. I'll have to get back to the other house to get to it, but I'll post if I can find anything useful. There is a pressure switch in these impeller...

I wanted to bring some home with me! Can't wait to get back to my humble collection in about 2 weeks' time now!

Today's visit with Leon Leon's "laundry shed" is amazing...

My hubby and I have spent most of this winter in Australia and before we head back home to Ogden, QC, I had the chance to meet up with Natahan (brisnat81) yesterday evening and with Leon (mayfan69) today. First up - some goodies from Nathan's collection...

WOW!!

Damn... I'm in New Zealand and it's in Texas. Figures... I may not go back to Canada anyway. Hubby's gonna have a LOT of fun crushing my collection if that happens!

Funny coincidence... I was just having a conversation about why my folks picked a GE Potscrubber over a KitchenAid Regency dishwasher back in 1978. The salesperson at Eaton's was pushing the KitchenAid (it cost more so he'd have gotten a few bucks more in commission). He also said the...

Damn... I had a WU404 that was finally no longer repairable a few years ago and it got scrapped 'cause no one seemed to want the parts...

Geez... it figures that something like this turns up in my Canadian 'strike zone' the year I'm wintering in Australia... Hope someone else can save it!

Reply #4 That 56 Whirlpool is the 2nd fastest dryer in the collection - I always found it dried evenly, too. It has been a daily driver in the past and when I get back from Australia in April, I'm planning on bringing it (and the matching washer) back into daily service after my 57 GE dryer...

It's not a good picture, but my 1956 Whirlpool Imperial dryer is technically a single-cycle model with only timed drying but with temperature control options.

I have one. I only tried out the motor on it; never actually used it. I really do have to make a point of trying it one of these days.

The 'Y' in the model number (1250Y) indicates this is a 1964 model. WAY fancier than my Canadian 64 GE washer!

I am unfortunately spending the rest of the winter in Australia... otherwise I would have been seriously interested in this! I've done the run from Ogden, QC into New Jersey more than once to save a machine.

I have one in daily use in my home in Ogden, QC. Mine's a 1956 but alas, the compressor gave out in 2023. I had it replaced and it's still chugging along.
