My GE Filter Flo from South Sydney Hi Astorobsession, This was a thread I created when I got the filter Flo quite a few years ago. I no longer have it, ran out of space unfortunately. It had a few issues and it started to leak again and kept tripping the electrics in the house. I still have a...

I picked up a second hand GE Filter Flo in South Sydney a few years back a they had a big Simpson American style drier. It was for sale too but I didn’t buy it. Wish I had now. Not sure if it worked off a regular power outlet or had to be hardwired in to 30amp outlet. A nice find Astorobssesion.

Thanks Guys, that is very reassuring. Jon, that is the exact same thing my LG does when it has slowed the spin down from 1400. 3 short bursts of water then drum stops and then jiggles to loosen the load. Not sure if I think it is a good idea or not. As I tend to always use the dryer probably...

I have a new LG washer and just noticed at the end of the final spin when it is coasting down it opens the cold inlet valve three times and lets in cold water for a second or so each time. Is this normal? Most of the water goes down the inside of the glass door from the soap dispenser but some...

Hi Hoover 3314L. I did have an Aussie Hoover TT that was similar. It had no heating element and the spin-rinse was via a hose from the cold tap that fitted into the lid of the spinner. It did have the autorinse same as your TT. It had centrifugal pump that was not as powerful as yours. I ended...

Thanks for posting. That twin tub takes me back to the 1970s when my mum had that exact model. I used to do all the family laundry back then when I was a kid. Great to see you have the original hose and drain pipe. I think ours lasted until the early 80s and it blew the electrics. Then we got...

Hi Adam I have been to Japan a few times and checked out a few laundromats. They have some interesting machines. Mostly toploaders with impeller in the base. One had really cool horizontal axis topload washers which also tumble dried after the wash. Can't say I have seen any regular front load...

Hi DADoES, Model # DD608DFTX7 I would love to run the unit with the draw open so I can see if the impeller is running in reverse when it is attempting to pump out but so far how to do that has eluded me. The lock seem pretty tamper proof but any suggestions how to bypass the lock gratefully...

It has malfunctioned again The dish drawer was working fine after I put it back in situ but after about 5 cycles the tub had water in the bottom again. It tries to pump out but fails. It is noisy when pumping out and always has been. The impeller turns really easily by hand so seems there is...

No fault codes and the impeller in the sump looks good, no problems that I can see. I put it back in place and seems to be working fine but still noisy when pumps out. It is not noisy aside the whoosh of water when washing. Good to know not Lilly to be a motor fault.

Thank guys, very helpful suggestions. Model # DD608DFTX7 I managed to get the plastic protector off the bottom of the draw and disconnected the drain pipe from the base of the draw. There is a rubber non return flap valve so water wont syphon back in (hence not being able to force water down...

Hi everyone, I have a F&P single dishwasher draw. It is not pumping water out. I have taken the filter out and pulled the impeller out of the bottom and no blockage that I can see. When I try to force water down the end of the drain pipe there is total resistance. Is this resistance a blockage...

TBH I don't like cold water washing. My F&P TL fills a little with warm or hot water and then cascades the concentrated hot/warm sudsy water over the load with the tub slowly rotating for about 5 minutes. It then fills up with cold to agitate. Always get great results. In Japan they seem to...

We have a single F&P dishdrawer that was in our house when we moved in 3 years ago. It is probably getting on for 10 years old. I love it. this week it was not pumping out. It was so easy to fix. one unit in the middle of the tub that drives the spray arm and also the pump out impeller. So easy...

Yes, it was me who posted the disaster of shattering my brand new LG washing machine glass door and tried to use orange duct tape to cover remnants but all is well that ends well. I think it looks really good with the white trim.

Shattered glass I tried to remove the dark glass from my new LG washer and it did shatter in to thousands of bits. Was a bit of a disaster but then once all the shattered glass had gone I was left with a ring of dark glass stuck to the door and it looked horrible. I covered it with a plastic...

Hi Egress thank you for your advice all those months ago. I wish I had of followed it but better late than never. It was such an easy fix and cheap as well. I still have a new motor coming at some point under the 10 year warranty. I should probably let LG I have fixed the problem.

Thanks John, I am really surprised the appliance repair guy didn’t know the fix was as simple as replacing the Hall sensor. I was very unimpressed with the service they provided.

Finally got the LF FL washer fixed - Hi everyone, My 7 year old LG FL washer broke down beginning of March and needed a new motor. I had to get the appliance repair guy to confirm the motor was bad. That cost $150au. Trying to get LG to honor their 10 year motor warranty has been a complete...

Thanks guys for all your replies. I had totally forgotten about the 10 year warranty on the motor (thanks henen4). Had technician over yesterday and he confirmed what I knew the motor was bad and needs to be replaced. $150au for him to tell me that. Now need to wait for the new motor free of...
