    Sears Detergent..not so good?

    I have only ever used powdered tide (with the exception of the ALL Small and Mighty that was free. Awful stuff) and I have never had any problems. Although I may not have had a washer long enough to develop those problems. HAHA Ok, I did have the SQ for 2 years so it would have been evident in...

    Suds Saver question for the experts:

    Be very careful using the scale remover on the porcelain. It can and will etch. Once that happens you're done with that machine. Dilute it first, remove a little at a time. The build up on the outer tub is not necessarily a problem although it is undesirable. Left over build up will collect...

    G.E. pureclean now not so sure about....

    You definitely need two tablets. Or at the very least, if your dishes are pre-rinsed or you have soft water you can cut the tablet in half, stick one half in the main wash compartment and throw the other half in the tank. The pre-rinse is where all the muck, grease, oils and solids start to...

    Sears Detergent..not so good?

    This week I have seen 3 or 4 Kenmore washers that have been used exclusively with Sears powdered detergent. All of the machines had considerable mineral build up. 2 were front loaders. All of the owners said they follow the directions on the box and use the recommended dosage. I've also noticed...

    Suds Saver question for the experts:

    Congratulations!! Now I don't know where this machine came from but that is some serious mineral build up. Someone needs to use more detergent.

    65 Kenmore 800

    There are so many reasons why it isn't spinning. You'll have to check for each one before you go replacing anything. Loose/worn belt, broken wig wag wire, lid switch broken, timer, bad wig wag, broken or stuck wig wag plunger, stuck, bent, binding cam bar. It really shouldn't be that difficult...

    Calling on Kenmore Front Loading experts( HE 3t) from around 2002-2004

    That's true. When it's your own machine you have the time to do that.

    It's 3 screws and the harness connection. Very easy to do.

    Why did you take the entire front off the machine?

    If it won't close then it needs a door lock assembly.

    I think it's broken. Yes, that's it!! It's broken! Do the lights light up? Do ALL of the buttons respond when pressed? If the answer is yes to those questions it will most likely need a Central Control Unit. However before I go that far I would check all the connections on the door lock and...

    The worst Maytag Lint Filter I've seen (Washer)

    I see that everyday. Most people didn't know it was there and those that do, don't care because most of the time there was nothing on it when they checked.

    It needs a new module. In some cases it might be less expensive to buy the Ice Maker kit and just use the whole ice maker.

    Calling Jason Surgilator_68!

    Get the model and serial of the black pair on CL. The dryer is 29in wide but 29 1/4 deep. It won't fit through some doors. The washer is also 27 1/2 inches wide and it too will not fit through some doors. So make sure you measure first. If lint is an issue, IE: you line dry then don't get the...

    Confusing detergents..... I did have a customer who once got the box of Miracle Grow and Tide confused. She thought the washer was broken because everything was coming out blue. This very thing could have happened to Jon. I understand how easy it would be to get the Dawn and Tide HE confused...
