Never again.. I had one of that exact model, this was one of a few short years where they had the early type "A" bags with the slide in "U" shaped bag collars, they leak dust horribly around that, I wouldn't own another one. Find one that is type "C" bag or the later push on collar type "A".

No doubt this design will be chintzy and cheaper built than the last, as they always are with GE. GE - "Cutting corners for over 60 years" or perhaps "We leave no corners uncut!" About 13 years ago, in 2006, we got one of the "Little Swan", Chinese manufactured GE front loaders. Bearings went...

Oops, I Botched that up, Dan has the correct cartridge, I just saw the red stylus holder and the groove atop it and my mind went to this. When in the cheap head-shell they look similar.

@DaveAM.. That's just a CZ-800 cartridge by Chuo Denki. You can get a new one for under $2.00 on eBay for a cloned version,

I always buy stuff under the assumption that something will need to be repaired. Enough disappointment and that is my attitude. This has, however gotten me pretty good at fixing things. Here are some common definitions for words you may find in an eBay or Craigslist listing: ~"Works" -- Means...

The "sealed system" is the compressor, condenser, evaporator, and associated coolant lines. It's called Sealed because once it is charged from the factory, it is sealed and should not need service unless the Freon leaked out or the compressor failed. All HVAC and refrigeration utilizes a...

GE made their own electronics until they reacquired RCA in 1986 and then sold both both their own consumer electronics division and that of RCA to Thomson SA(now Technicolor) of France. The problems as of the 1960s(when GE's TVs were at their worst) were just poor build quality and cheap...

GE disdain... Yep, other than their stoves and refrigerators, everything else has had some major corner cut in the design since at least the late 1950s. Their electronics were absolute garbage(just try to find a 1960s GE color TV, they all broke 50 years ago, RCA and Zenith are still...

I don't have any problem fitting most large, bulky items into my 1980/81 Whirlpool Supreme (model LHA5800) belt drive. It's the last year for the old 27 gallon tub.

Gentle and effective, powdered Spic 'n Span dilute mix.

Not an old lawn boy, it has an engine that is not the doing of OMC. Also, LB never made a deck shape like that as far as I know, they had staggered wheel and a sort of reverse staggered wheel with the discharge in left rear. What it actually is, I have no clue.

^Toro has owned Lawn-Boy since the late 1980s, but only killed off the old staggered wheel and two stroke design in the early 2000s. Since then, they have been the Toro economy line, a shame because they used to be among the best. My daily use mower is a late 1970s Lawn-Boy 8238AE

^Regarding the Whirlpool/Amana, it has that crappy VMW mechanism that has the bearings and seals in the gearbox fail in short order, not to mention the mode shifter and board problems. John is right on the SQ stack or an older Whirlpool Thin-Twin direct drive type stack unit.

^The one on the from his DE306 has more labeling. He already had to swap over his intermittent-closed start switch since his new timer didn't come with one, for whatever reason it was easier to understand the other one for him. I just don't question his logic anymore, as long as he gets a...

Glad to have been able to help you with the wiring, Sean.

I already matched everything up on the timer and schematic for you on Facebook messenger a week ago. I don't know what else to say.. I previously offered to solder the wires to the board if you would mail it to me and correct the board damage, at no expense other than postage. This is your...

I have one. The bulb just off camera in the first shot creating the bright spot at the bottom-right of the first picture is a 200 watt incandescent over my(cluttered) work bench.

I'm not getting rid of them, any LEDs I have used don't last. I can't stand the awful color rendering of them either, I frankly believe that they fudge the CRI numbers on most of them because I have some old 60 CRI High Output flourescent fixtures that provide better quality of light than many...

"- Wait until the machine has finished its supposed load sensing and is a few minutes into the wash and/or rinse cycle. Then manually add water by bucket or hose. " Might as well buy a wringer washer to wheel in, if we're going to make this automatic a manual machine. One would clean better...
