Been searching to see what the lowest temp cycling thermostat is, so far the lowest temp I can find is L120-10. Were there any ever rated at L110-10? Just wondering out of curiosity.

Does anyone happen to know what the part number is for the pre 1966 Whirlpool dryers? Just wondering since the belt on mine is probably a number of years old and has a tendency to squeak a little upon startup, quiets down after 5 minutes of running. I believe John mentioned the older drum...

Since the weather is cooling/ramping down soon since fall is right around the corner, do any of you guys use window fans (or fans in the window) to bring fresh air in or not? I usually use some window fans myself to bring in fresh air in the cooler spring and fall months.

Earlier this spring, I created a thread on thinning the heard. Since the site got sold off and has a completely, can’t find the thread I created originally. Anyways, I mentioned I would be selling of my Maytag A810 set (probably just going to give them away since they have been sitting out in...

Awhile back, Robert asked about the pieces I fabricated for my Whirlpool in a thread on the Shoppers Square forum index. These are the pieces I fabricated out out plumbing parts for the water level/pressure switch along with the lint filter/automatic dispensers. Surprisingly, the inner tub/wash...

Hello all, this is my first thread in the Imperial forum index on the ‘new’ AW site. Awhile back, I created a thread in regards to the older vs newer Whirlpool 29” dryer motors on the old AW site, almost done with the Mark 18 conversion to my Whirlpool dryer. While I did check to make sure...

Good evening all, I just logged on today on the ‘new’ AW, while the site hasn’t fallen off of the face of the earth (knock on wood), I find it’s a lot different than the old AW site. The good thing is you can edit or delete posts and send DMs on top of getting notifications when someone likes a...

After 2 years of being out of commission, managed to bring this machine back to life albeit altered a bit. Got these consoles from scatpear in Colorado who parted out a 1977 Whirlpool Imperial Mark 18 set, along with the wiring harnesses and other odds and ends that were pulled off from them...

While it’s on my mind, might as well create this thread as a ‘bookmark’ if you will. Awhile back, I mentioned about selling my Maytag A810 set since it’s basically a duplicate of my Maytag A806 set, Melvin seemed to express interest from what I remember. Anyways, I’ll clean up the Maytag A810...

Been on the fence about this for awhile, finally got around to creating this thread. Is it even possible to change my username? Just wondering, want to have something that’s consistent with my channel on YouTube.

Since I will be resurrecting my Whirlpools sometime this spring/summer, did the ‘61 the ‘65 Whirlpool dryers use the same color coding for the wires going to the motor as the ‘66 and later models or not? Just wondering incase if things are different.

Good evening/afternoon everyone, hope everyone is doing well this Thursday. So here’s another Whirlpool/Kenmore dryer question, did Whirlpool built dryers in the 1970’s have separate cycling thermostats for each of the temperatures, or did they use a bias thermostat like the later models? Just...

Tried to decode the are of my Maytag A806 on other various websites, can’t seem to find anything. I had a sneaking suspicion it’s from 1980, but possibly could be from 1979, possibly 1978 or 1977. Here’s a picture of the data tag.

I created a thread on how the auto dry works on the newer Whirlpool 29” top filter dryers earlier this year (also pertains to some Whirlpool dryers made in the 1980’s and 1990’s) in the deluxe forum index, I’ve been wondering what the part number is for the power dropping resistor is since I...

Remember reading through the archives awhile regarding the Maytag HOH dryers, think Dan mentioned (maybe a couple of other people) mentioned about putting a cool down thermostat in to extend the cool down substantially. While trying to hunt down the cool down thermostat out of curiosity, this...

So here’s an update with my Whirlpool. Managed to replace a damaged contact inside the timer from a parts timer John was kind enough to send (Thanks John!), however it’s still having some issues. Basically, you have to put slight pressure on the timer knob for it to engage the suds return...
