^ Ok. So the only way to remove the auger is simply hold the base down with my feet and pull up on the auger? I read the tabs needed to be broken or something? I just want to know ahead of when they break.

Stuck agitator auger Anyone have any luck on how to remove the upper portion of the agitator. I’m trying to change the dogs out remove the agitator put it on the floor applied pressure with my feet to pull the upper auger off but unfortunately it will not budge, no matter what. I don’t want...

^ Probably. Though I should be willing to try new things. First he Calyspo clean better then a direct drive or is that subjective?

Kenmore Direct Drive I love that style Kenmore you posted in the first photo. Just something about that look. Especially the bisque colored ones with the red lettering on the control panel. I need to pick one of those up.

I’ll keep an eye out for one. What year were are these first introduced?

Calypso Looks like a great machine, but I never see any pop up. I don’t know if these weren’t made long but I have heard good things. I’ll be enjoying this machine for a long long time. Right now I’m on a mission to find the matching dryer.

Kenmore version I have the Kenmore triple action agitator I could stick in it just for fun. From the looks of it, the Kenmore version had a delay start option, that's pretty much it from what I could tell. I don't think the Kenmore version had the extended spin. I could be wrong. I'm filming a...

Amazing washer This machine is working perfectly. I really don't think it was used hardly at all. It's so smooth. I'm getting people on my YouTube channel asking where they can find one. The catalyst option really works well and the clothes smell extra fresh when they come out. Was this just...

^ Interesting. I didn’t know it was suppose to shift from an extra low spin to just low. I thought it was just low/high spin. Does it do that on any other cycle?

Backup control panel I was able to find a new old stock control panel for this machine which I will keep just in case the current one fails. From the looks of it, this doesn't look difficult to replace. The tech sheet only has 4 steps to install it. Also is this "pause" sound normal...

Your restore Excellent job!!! Mrs. Doris has great taste in old washers. I searched profusely for a TOL set like that with the black and red control panel.

Thanks John & Henry. Yes, I did see that thread and its full of very useful information. I have bookmarked it for future reference. I didn't even realize this was the same machine Glen has on his YT channel. YT doesn't really have many videos on these. How much did these go for back in the day...

Pressure Switch I got it. Turned it about a quarter of an inch and the level is perfect now.

Pressure switch I made some adjustments to it. It is the one on the left. The gold one.

^ I understand. We don’t have to have any more conversations in regards to the lid switch or wiring. Can someone assist me in adjusting the water pressure switch so the water fills all the way to the top? Is the catalyst water pressure switch the one on the far right?

As long as nothing is going to cause a shock or fire, I'm good. Here are some detailed photos I just took.

^ I appreciate your help, but I'm still confused and not following you. I really don't understand how this thing can connect any other way, unless you mean for me to swap the wires the switch has? I also don't understand how you were able to identify an issue from just the picture of the switch...

This is the exact switch I purchased if that helps. https://www.lowes.com/pd/Hillman-Heavy-Duty-Toggle-Switch-with-Leads-and-Protective-Boot/5001916089

I still don’t quite follow. The switch had two black wire leads coming out of the switch itself. I followed the steps in another post Bout connecting each wire to machine wires. Can you be more specific? I know nothing about electrical wiring.

Ok I might need a little more direction on this switch so I don’t burn my house down. What did you guys do to mount it? I just used an adhesive.
