SteveT agrees With SteveD! A Picture is worth 1000 words!

Sure or fhte model number? The 23 series uses the Whirlpool Powerclean pump and has no real check valve flapper like the 21 and 22 series. It does have a white plastic check valve assembly that you can remove from the pump from under the machine. There is a check ball and flapper in there that...

Not too shabby! I'll take that. Probably the best part is the dehumidification that comes with it. Thanks, Now to find what rebates are still available.

How much cooling can be expected from one of these units? If I were to get one, it would be installed in my garage and would have plenty of ambient heat to transfer to the water tank. The garage during the summer with the door closed can often get close to 100 degrees and in the winter, in the...

That's not all folks! You can even get a model that has the ability to wash 2 racks at the same time. One in the normal table height position and one that is at the undercounter level! Like having an AM16 and an Lx series at the same time.

I just thought I would poll the members about these water heaters that have been around for quite a while now. Have any of you made the jump to install one? Where was it installed and how has it performed? Does it keep up with your demand or do you find yourself kicking on the electric elements...

how many machines do you have? Maybe you can make one good one out of two of them. Fill us in with some more details.

Drain Valve Quandry What actually happened to your current drain valve? What exactly was leaking. More pictures would help us to help you. Just remember, all those parts are 99.9% unavailable. Even for the commercial versions, which were no longer made after 1979, Hobart stopped stocking them...

Use the Imperial as a donor Shannon, The Superba is the model you want as it is TOL. If this machine turns out to be in good shape, use that one as it is more versatile with the tank heater as well as the 180 degree Sanitizing. The Imperial can be your donor machine for spares in the future...

All whirlpool clones Any Point voyager based machine will be the same as yours. All they did was change the wash arm and racks to suit each brand.(WP,KA,MT) You should be able to find plenty of clips to guide you and believe me, you wont break any clips, just don't go all ape shit taking it...

Dig a little deeper! These Point-Voyager based machines all do a really good job of cleaning but they are in no way as "heavy-duty" as their predecessors like Power Clean or Kitchen Aid machines. Even though your chopper screen may be clean and not giving you any trouble, you may want to...

picture? Can you possibly get a shot of the wheels you need? I think I have them in my garage stash!

KDI-20?? Shaft seal replacement. The shaft seal is not hard to replace. Chances are that you can forego the gauge they refer to in the service manual if you simply disassemble the old seal and reassemble it exactly the same way as it came apart. Namely, make sure that you replace the same...

Top Anchors. There should be 2 holes near the top of the machine on the left and right sides that should accommodate small "L" brackets that you can screw into your countertop. You may have to remove the front cover to expose the screw holea. if not, you should be able to find holes in the...

All is not lost! You can still get a door gasket for your machine that actually fit the larger door on the 15 thru 17 series machines. It will need to be shortened but will fit perfectly for you. Call your local Hobart office and ask for part number 00-121030-00002 list is 33.92. I highly...

Certainly not anything worth keeping. My mother had a Frigidaire badged machine like these but with more cycle selections in their home built in 1997. When I visited in the early 2000's, I noted how slimy all their dishes looked and felt. She said the dishes never come out clean and she often...

It is an easy fix... Your best bet, based on the pictures you attached, would be to replace the whole dispenser. Some of the members on here should have a new old stock(NOS) to sell you and while you are at it, replace the bimetal heaters that the wires attach to. You should MOST DEFINITELY...

Pull off the panel And also check the wiring that connects to the door interlock switch on the top right side of the door. I have seen that cause issues as you describe. All you need is a loose connector and the terminal and wire can overheat and burn the insulation. Remember that your machine...

Agreed and agreed! I agree with Ben about making sure that the wash arm support and wash arm are in good condition. A large volume of water can escape from under a worn support as there are actually 2 seals to prevent that from happening. That is more critical than a worn arm itself. A worn...

Long story behind this machine To answer your main question, this would be almost identical to the KitchenAid KD-20 series machines. ISE was allowed to keep building them after KA came out with the 21 series as part of the deal when Hobart sold KitchenAid to Whirlpool. A Use and care guide for...
