Aweak or failing capacitor will cause the dry to run too long or not shut off at all. If it's shutting off too early there are several causes:   1. You have an early model with a 5 mF capacitor. These always under dried. Maytag had a lot of complaints and upped the capacity later on in...

RCD is spot on. For one reason or another the cycling stat isn't getting power to the timer motor when it should.

That's a KDI-15, Oct. 1964 to April 1968. Since it's in Avocado I suspect it's more towards 1968 than 1964. One wash-arm bandit. Collectable but not worth $200 to most of us here.

Are you looking for users guide or the service manual? I have the service manual for the 1959 ranges. I also think I have the manual for the 1956 30" ranges somewhere. The biggest issue with cooking with these old school Frigidaire ranges (and this is the last year of production for the "old" 3...

If it's still not shutting off, then the electronic control has failed OR the drum is somehow grounding itself.   I'm not sure how much more you can be helped. I posted the schematic in post #2 above. That IS the schematic. There is no other. It is the same as one that would have been glued to...

Not to split hairs here, but technically the Hotpoint dryers were water condensing dryers. It is true that they did not need to be vented but they did need a cold water supply and a drain in order to operate. There were many more companies that produced water condensing dryers as opposed to "air...

Large capacity push-button fabricmatic model A590, pre-orbital, could be as early as July 1984 and as late as June 1989.

The "Filtrator" (or sometimes "Filtramatic") was Frigidaire's proprietary name for a non-vented, air-to-air, condensing dryer. They were manufactured from 1952-1967. Do some searches on the site using the term "filtrator" and you will find all sorts of interesting information and pictures about...

According to "Tech-Talk" it would have to be a Custom Imperial filtrator model.   A Custom Imperial flowing heat dryer was introduced in 1961. I suspect that this was part of the total re-design of the filtrator mechanism for that year which made the two dryers more similar than different in...

And according to this morning's paper the deal is done. The GE Appliance division has been acquired by Electrolux for $3.3 billion. From the AP:   STOCKHOLM — Sweden's Electrolux is buying the appliances business of General Electric for $3.3 billion, boosting its presence on the North American...

Sorry to hear the HOH switch DOESN't work on the SOH. If I had one, I'd pass it along...

Speed heat and Heat minder both debuted in 1955.    'All models will be available in White Porcelain finish. In addition, exterior colors of Stratford Yellow and Sherwood Green will be optional on seven models-the RV-25, RV-25G, RV-38, RV-38G, RV-60, RV-70, and RV-70G. Ranges with colored...

The dryer is a 641C (1957-1960) and the washer looks like an A512 pre-orbital (July 1984-June 1989).

It's pretty, but not $2,000 pretty. If they must sell, I hope they are ready to deal in a more realistic $200-$500 price range!

You have to use a Maytag specced belt for the transmission belt. This belt is impregnated with graphite to allow the belt to slip during the beginning of the spin while the tub is SLOWLY spinning and the water is pumped out. As the water is pumped out, the speed increases until it reaches the...

The hole should be drilled to 5/16" according to the service literature.

In that case you are probably just as well off to replace it. I have all of the tools and partly did this stem-seal job to prove to myself that I could! I now have no fear of it.   BTW, Maytags of this vintage typically used about 40-42 gallons of water for the normal cycle at the highest...

Sandy, I would think your Cedar Falls neighbor must have this?
