The first one you've pictured is not a point voyager but a later series. This one alternates the wash arms, and does not run any arms while using the rear Pro-Wash jets. I have worked on several of these; they are OK but not very powerful performers (and they take it at least 2 1/2 hours to...

Blown Away!! <span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">Wow!  That is an exceptional renovation!  To say I'm envious is an understatement...that has been a dream machine of mine for a long time!  It is absolutely gorgeous!  Thank you Ben for sharing, and thank you John for...

A dream find! <span style="font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">So Cool!  This is a dream machine of mine! Thanks for posting this Ben.  I have reached out to the seller to see if she'll work with me so I can arrange...

Hi John, Thanks for that info. I do have an extra agitator column so I can definitely sacrifice the one that's currently in there. I wasn't sure if heating the nut would damage the bellows (or anything else) below. I've never serviced a 1-18 before; this should be fun! Haven't used a torch...

Hi everyone, I have a 1-18 machine that has a badly chipped pulsator cone. The model is WC-7 (pics below). I have a replacement cone assembly, but I cannot get the agitator mounting nut off. It is frozen on. Is there some special way to do this? I found a post where the individual used a...

My aunt had one of these. She used it quite a bit! Amusing story, she called me one time saying the dishwasher was not draining. When I tried the machine it filled up, and the motor ran, but there was no circulation to speak of (just a small amount of water moving through the lower spray arm)...

Shaft Seal Hi, typically when disassembling the pump and motor the way you have described the shaft seals need to be replaced with new ones. On a machine this old those seals are probably long worn out by now, which is why your bearings rusted in the first place. You cannot reuse the old...

Nathan, you were correct. The model dates from the early 90's. I've attached pics of a brochure that is dated from 1992 and shows this model (my apologies for the scan quality). Does anyone have any service &/or parts literature for this model series?

Hi everyone, I wanted to share a new to me machine...the Asko Excellence 1503 dishwasher. Last year this was donated to our store; I immediately grabbed it! :) I believe the model dates between 1979 & 1981 and is one of the first models introduced to the US (?); I have some literature on it...

Hi, would anyone have a KDS19 wiring harness they would like to sell? I'm working on a project that involves this model, but the wiring harness I have is in poor condition (lots of splices!). I've searched for the part on-line and have not been able to locate one. Any leads would be...

Hi Barry, glad to hear the machine is running. Sorry to hear about the leaks. Mine leaked as well when I first tried it, but it was from the shaft seal. Oddly, the leak would disappear about 10 minutes or so into any cycle. I cannot explain this, but it did this each time. That wasn't going...

Cycling sequence On these models the first wash segment is about 14 min long, but for the Double Wash & Soft Wash cycles the time rapid advances after about 5 min of wash. It then provides a rinse, a main wash (10 min), two final rinses, and then dry. The Single Wash cycle (which mine has)...

Admiral Washer Yes, WCI made. Same design as Gibson and Kelvinator of the day.

While it may not be the best performing dishwasher it really turned out well! It's a very stylish machine. I love the moniker "Continental". So MCM! I'm working on a cutting board for the top. The pics show the original wash arm & support; I had to change it because it kept popping off the...

The "after" pics:

Great! Send me your address & I'll get it out to you next week (I'm going out of town tomorrow for the weekend). I actually have the SC700 (portable version of the SU). When I got it everything worked, but it had a bad leak. Interestingly the leak would stop as the unit was running! I could...

Spray tower nozzle Hi Barry, is this the part your looking for?

Hi Mark, I have a dispenser you can have. It's in good condition; I bought it new and only used it for a year or two before I had to scrap the machine. Send me your address and ZIP Code and I'll let you know how much it would cost to send. I am going out of town in a few days so I won't be...

A Frigidaire 1–18 could easily handle that load.

Congratulations! Wow, nice set! That is, I think, the Canadian equivalent to the 1960 Whirlpool Imperial Mark 12 series. I love the styling on the set; I especially like the simplicity of the timer push-button arrangement. Enjoy!!
