    pump types compatibility

    ok thanks John. Does the flow reverse during the washing and rinsing cycle like the 2 port version? going by the diagrams for the models with the magic clean lint filter models they use the pump flow to achieve this function. so water goes one way through the pump during wash and rinse and...

    Wigwag coils from USA for whirlpool voltage

    I would very much love it to not be on GFI however In Australia they have made it law that every GPO point needs to be behind an RCD. the only exception to this is Air conditioners and ovens and i think hot water units. It is very annoying having RCD tripping.

    Wigwag coils from USA for whirlpool voltage

    It was working ok when i took delivery of the machine however when i was testing it and putting it through a full cycle the outlet hose has caused water to splash up into the spin coil and is causing the RCD to trip every time it shifts to spin. it can fill agitate neutral drain but every time...

    Wigwag coils from USA for whirlpool voltage

    Hi Everyone Does anyone know if the wig wag coils in the whirlpool machines in the US are rated for 240 or 110 V. I know the power going to the switchboards in the US are 240V split phase and was wondering if these coils are actually rated for 240V. My understanding is a 240V coil will still...

    Just Bought another Malleys Washer

    The major issue i have found with the model that had the heating element was they tend to use a massive amount of electricity. i also thought it was causing the rcd to trip but when i tested the element it checks out fine. This one has the red white and yellow plastic lights on it the same as...

    What are the differences between the surgilator types for whirlpools? I think there where super surgilators, surgilators, and super surgilators double duty. What are the real differences between them if any?

    Washing machine bearing puller 1979s washer

    yes however i have been unsuccessful in finding either of those tools. I also don't actually have a spare agitator shaft to use as a post to beat it out. i would have to condemn a machine that can be restored to acquire one. Can an agitator shaft be purchased separately from the transmission?

    Spin shaft measurements

    ok so i really need the proper tool to do the installation. I am probably better to not pull out the old bearings if i don't have access to the tool to put the new ones in correctly. I also don't have the service procedure for replacing the bearings. I was unable to obtain them either. all i...

    Spin shaft measurements

    Could a large spindle of washers of varying sizes on a threaded rod be used in place of this installation tool? then use a nut welded to a metal brace that can go across the tube at the top be used so as you turn the threaded shaft it pulls tighter pulling the bearing into place.

    Spin shaft measurements

    ok i am unable to find that tool available anywhere. is there any other way of getting that bearing out? It seems that there is one at the top and at the bottom so there is no way of getting anything inside the space that will be wide enough to pull it out. the inserter looks easy enough to...
