Pretty clean looking suds saver Maytag. I want to say A612S? https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/696512901965041/

Tech Sheets Thank you for the information! It makes sense that it has it but it never occurred to me that they would have a service mode. This may come in handy in the future should I have problems with it.

Hey all, I come to you with a question I have to ask just out of pure curiosity. The other day while browsing use and care guides, I came across a “Theory and operation” guide for the Whirlpool Gold Electronically controlled Catalyst. In it, it claims it has a usable service mode and machine...

Looks to be in fairly rough condition, but listing says it works still https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/1297145774182415/

Thank you for the help with figuring out the wiring. I’d like to find a Factory style lamp to put in, but I know that will be basically impossible to find. Would something simple like a small LED work, or does it need to be the OEM lamp assembly? If so, would anyone happen to know the part...

Hello everyone, I have a quick question for all of you. Does anybody know how I could potentially wire in the small “Pilot Light” above the dial on my 1969 Maytag A106? Since it’s bottom of the line, the A106 has the spot for the pilot light, including a small glass lens where the light should...

Inspecting the Westinghouse As someone who’s never owned any sort of vintage Westinghouse like this, How can I go apart inspecting the insides of it (transmission/motor, etc.). Does the whole back come off, or is there like an access panel on the back that I can look through? I have not yet...

Finally getting to do some tests So today I was able to dive into the Maytag a little bit. Despite being 9 years older than my crusty A408S, the inside looks almost BRAND NEW! The tub moves freely, and the motor and pump do not appear to be locked up. I was able to plug it in and test the fill...

That appears to be the newer style of the “shark fin” that is found in the Dependable Care machines with orbital transmissions.

Wow, I really did not realize just what I was getting when I saw the ad, I just knew I had to try and get it and I’m so glad it worked out! I imagine this machine will stay in my collection for quite a while, and hopefully it will be a very simple job to get both of them cleaning clothes for the...

I'm Glad I was able to grab these two machines to give them a new home! I Haven't yet looked closely at the Maytag for the Serial number (I'm not with the machines anymore at the time of writing this, and it wasn't right under the lid), but this weekend I will take a closer look at both...

Today was a big day for me. I finally brought the avocado green Westinghouse home! I have not been able to do much looking at it underneath, but it seems in rather good condition, just very dirty from sitting. According to the seller they sat in his aunts basement for close to 30-40 years, so it...

Crusty Outer Tub Holy cow! That outer tub is absolutely nasty. I thought the inside of mine was fairly bad but it’s nothing compared to the amount of rust and gunk build up inside this machine. Here’s hoping my machines never end up even close to as bad as this one.

Hello everyone. As some may have seen, I recently talked with somebody selling a Avocado Green Westinghouse washer. After arranging pick up of that machine he also decided to throw in this second machine for free, which is in similar condition. I have some questions about it though. From what I...

Westinghouse Washer Woah, I didn’t realize just what I could be buying here! I don’t want to say it’s “official” yet since I haven’t gone to pick it up, But the money has been sent and a meeting date has been arranged so it’s almost more than certain that the machines are going to be coming...

Title Whoops. Meant “Westinghouse” not whirlpool. I also have a picture of the Maytag to share

Vintage Whirlpool I made the seller an offer and talked with him for a little bit, He also has a early 70s A107 he’s selling. They’ve both been sitting about thirty years, and doesn’t know if they work. Hopefully all goes well and these babies will be coming home with me!

This is pretty much normal on all DD machines. Every single one i’ve used and owned, from the Catalyst to the Amana, to an old Whirlpool my mom once owned has done that little shake/wobble. I would not worry about it unless it becomes very bad.

Frigidaire 1-18 Bellows I’m not sure if that’s the correct one in the last picture, but do you have any Oil bellows or Water bellows for the mid to late 70s frigidaire 1-18 washers that’s in decent condition? I’m looking at possibly acquiring one, but i’ve been told it has previously been known...

These ones were listed around two weeks ago. They may be sold but they were marked down from 700 to 400 so it may still be available.
