    Found a KDSS-21

    About a week ago, one of my Kijiji searches turned up a KDSS-21 about 15 minutes away from me. At first I thought I wasn't going to go get it, but then a few days went by and the ad stayed up, so I thought it was a sign that I needed to pick it up. Contacted the seller yesterday and he said it...

    Inherited Kitchenaid dishwasher help

    Completely normal for the KUDS23 buttons to stay pressed when the door is opened. The "Cancel" button will un-select any of the main cycle options when pressed, and the "Reset Options" button will un-select both the "Sani Rinse" and "Energy Saver Dry" options when pressed. But all these...

    Kitchenaid KUDA230YWHO

    wenric, are those pictures of the actual dishwasher you will be picking up? If so, I believe it is a KUDS23, the top of the line Superba model.

    KDS-18 Detergent Dispenser Gasket

    I had the front panel off of my KDS-58C tonight while running a load of Christmas cooking pots and pans so I could check on the rinse agent dispenser, as I noticed the last few times I had run the dishwasher, I wasn't hearing the usual solenoid snap at the start of the final fill (more on that...

    KDS-18 fire

    Phil, yes and yes. I brought the old ones with me, and asked someone working in the department to match them. She showed me that on the back of all the boxes of different sizes, there is an actual scaled circle of the size o-ring contained in the box (I believe they come two per package if I...

    KDS-18 fire

    Phil, I posted back in 2013 a procedure on how I changed the o-rings in the detergent dispenser of my KDS-58C. In fact, YOU replied to it and said, "I should do that on a friend's KDS 18 as one of the dispensers leaks a bit..." Is this the same friend? Link is below, and includes the correct...

    KDI-16 in new house doesn't run

    In your third photo, the inlet valve is the white plastic assembly which is attached with a metal bracket and two screws to the cross member running along the front of the machine. It is immediately to the right of the "NOTE" decal. It also has the copper pipe attached to it, which is your hot...

    KDM-21 Motor stopped

    Hmmm strange. Usually if it's the motor thermal cutout, the motor won't restart until it has cooled sufficiently, which usually takes some time. One other thing to try if you are handy with a multi-meter, and of course very careful, is to check to see if there is voltage getting to the motor...

    KDM-21 Motor stopped

    When the motor stops, how long does it stay stopped? Is it for one increment of the timer, or longer? One way to see if it is the timer or the motor is to start a Normal cycle, then once the motor stops, hit Cancel/Drain and see if the motor starts again. If it doesn't, wait until the timer...

    Canadian 1970's Kenmore

    Ah, that's too bad about the Hitachi... hope you find another one closer some day. And yes, the 500/600 series Hoovers. I think it was a 610 that was the first twin tub I was introduced to by a friend of the family who had one. I remember I used to be afraid of the spinner (actually, I was...

    Canadian 1970's Kenmore

    Hey unclejohn! Good to hear from you again. Yes I still have my Hoover twin tub, although it's been a bit since I last used it. Need to get it out again and do a couple of loads with it so that the pump doesn't seize up. Did you ever find the Mitsubishi (I think that's what brand it was)...

    Canadian 1970's Kenmore

    John, I believe bobbins is correct that the machine is an early 1970's. I was born in 1973, and I remember being very young and interested in washing machines, and this was the first one I remember we had. I would ask my parents what year they got it, but I'm sure they wouldn't remember.

    Canadian 1970's Kenmore

    Yeah, I was figuring around $100 as well. Doubt though that he is going to drop that low... in it for the money I'm guessing. I would love to have it, but can't justify $225. Funny thing is I remember seeing this exact washing machine, but the programs on the timer were rotated 90 degrees...

    Canadian 1970's Kenmore

    So I found this 1970's Canadian Kenmore washer for sale a few hours away from me. It is identical to the first automatic that my family had when I was growing up. If I remember right, one of the support rods broke away from its upper cabinet mount, and because of the rust, we ended up...

    Giving away a small hoard of KitchenAid dishwashers

    Hi Christine. Would you have any small items baskets in your collection? I'd be happy to pay shipping plus a handling fee if you do and would be willing to send them to me in Quebec. Thanks.

    Heating water Hell

    I have this exact machine except in black, and my Sani rinse time is about 1/2 hour. I also have a KDS-58, and have to say that of the two of them, it's a toss up as to which one I like better. They both wash amazing (I use Cascade Fryer Boil Out), but I prefer the filtration system of the...
