A Viking by any other name... Would be a Kitchenaid by Hobart! Wes, good to see you here every so often. I am tempted to take it off your hands but I would venture to say that this will be scooped up by one of us real fast. These were excellent disposers at least back in the day. I cannot...

Pull the control panel out And check inside that compartment. There are no wires inside or behind the evaporator. They are only behind the controls. It is very possible that there is a broken connector and it is shorting on something or on another wire. Just remove the control panel gently and...

Busted button? In your first picture, it looks like the top surface of the button has been pierced or broken. Any amount of moisture that might have gotten into the membrane switch could be enough to give you the symptoms you describe. Since the machine does work on the cancel part of the...

Not Junk!By any means! Your sales agent doesn't know anything about dishwashers! This is considered by many to be one of the best dishwashers ever made by Hobart. It is far from a quiet machine but we can help you tame the noise and it may well give you many more years of great service and get...

Topsy Turvy! The air gap obviously has gotten turned from its vertical position with the inlet pointing to the 9 o'clock position instead of being at the 12 o'clock position. Turn it back to where the inlet is facing up towards the top of the machine and slide the hose over the inlet. Secure...

Ace Hardwarr Take whatever is left of the old one and they should be able to match it up or take the pulley and the can guesstimate within a few different sizes and get you close to what you need.

More water and turbowash I have a similar LG machine and am not impressed with the cleaning results from it regardless of the cycles selected. Stain removal is worse than our Duet(left at the house we just sold)and the cycles are somewhat longer. I cannot fault it for the amount of cycles and...

Springs are easy but... You will likely have to pull the machine out. If it is from 2004, then it is a Point Voyager, Tall Tub machine. Can you provide a model number please so we can be sure? The door had the stop where you leave it "option" and had some wheels and cords to make it work. It...

Marquette Appliances Every time I see this in the POD, I want to say that we had a Marquette 21 cubic foot(which was humongous at the time) Top fridge with bottom freezer, that was purchased thru Macy's home freezer/meat plan. You paid off the freezer monthly and would order the cuts of meat...

Oh the memories! My parents had one of these machines and now that you mentioned the "Long Drain" error, it brought me back to a time when their machine was doing the same thing! I checked those obvious things mentioned and still the problem persisted. I wound up pulling the machine out and...

not sure but... LD may indicate a leak was detected but since the machine probably does not have a drip pan under it, maybe it will trigger if it sees the water level drop down for any number of reasons. The motor seal could be leaking, the drain solenoid may be sticking open and allowing...

More head spinning, Ed! Here is a shot of another wash arm swap-out. I took out the 4 way Hydrosweep arm from my KA tall tub years ago and have not looked back since. The Kenwhirl Thunderbolt wash arm works so much better than the Hydrosweep. It is quieter and is about an inch longer so it...

GE/Hotpoint Clone? I always thought that these were nothing more than GE/Hotpoint machines with a Whirlpool door installed on it. The wash system seemed to resemble what GE was using and just the pop up tower was a little different. Surely GE could build such a machine for other manufacturers...

Memory Lane! Thanks for that link, Ed. That was and still is good reading and a great chronicle of Robert's talents. If you look at when Swazey shuts off the machine, there is barely any water above the filters. There should have been much more water in it as the machine was designed to run...

EXTENSION CORDED? Hopefully, NOT! If you are not hard wiring it and plugging it directly in to a wall outlet, even if provided by the builder in the area of the machine itself, you MUST observe the correct polarity on the wires. That is, the white wire on the machine must be connected to the...

I am looking for, with little success, a black control panel for my Point Voyager tall tub dishwasher. Never knowing what treasures one of us may have stashed in their garages or basements, I thought I would put this out here. The model number for the black panel is KUDP02RIBS3 which has the...

GFCI WOES There are any numbers of reason why a GFCI may trip. The first thing you should do is take off the front door panel and make sure that the detergent dispenser is not leaking and getting the bi-metal heaters wet. That was a common problem with Kitchenaid dispensers as they got older...

Calling Combo52 and Good points on the WP dw's John, I sent you an email a few days ago to the address listed in the profiles on here. Can you let me know if you got it? Also, I would agree with John about the lower level of features on the Whirlpool you mentioned. And have also had...

Why the switch-a-roo? Why do you want to switch it to a manual style? What is wrong with the machine? Maybe it is something none too serious. Let us know so we can help you. John L will probably be your best shot on this one.

Single motor wire? What you may be seeing from the motor is what looks like a single wire, but is like a black covered wire set containing a single white and single black wire enclosed by the black covering. Motors need a positive and neutral wire to operate. (There may also be a grounding wire...
