This was posted in Shopper’s Square but there hasn’t been much response. Perhaps it will get more attention here. I am still considering the one person so-far that has expressed interest! I have decided to part with the Frigidaire WO-65-2 washer that came from Roger LeQuea’s collection of...

I have decided to part with the Frigidaire WO-65-2 washer that came from Roger LeQuea’s collection of machines. Cosmetically it looks great. However it has developed an intermittent problem with the starter switch. Or it may possibly be another motor issue. I don’t know. It set off smoke...

I inadvertently posted this in the Deluxe category. It was moved to the Shopper’s Square” category instead. In February of this year, my partner Jim and I moved from Tucson, Arizona to Cathedral City, California. We don’t (thankfully) have much spare garage space in the new house. My days of...

In February of this year, my partner Jim and I moved from Tucson, Arizona to Cathedral City, California. We’re very close to Palm Springs. The move was mostly for the purpose of being closer to what’s left of my family. No, I’m not ill or dying quite yet, but we wanted to make one more move in...

I now own the early 1950's Frigidaire washer once owned by Roger LeQuea here in Arizona. I believe Robert and Greg helped him work on it, once upon a time. It is now, intermittently, pulsating at the start of the spin cycle. Then it straightens out and gets up to speed. The machine is set-up in...

Hobart, the real thing, etc. KDS-57 dishwasher. It was given to me. However I really have no space or use for another dishwasher. It's stored in the garage at the moment. It will go to someone who can actually enjoy owning, using and appreciate it. This early 1970's machine has hardly been used...

Hello everyone. Ken Yourist here. It’s been a number of years since I’ve posted anything on the website. After retiring five years ago, my partner Jim and I moved from Detroit to Tucson to escape the harsh winters. We’ve gotten used to the hot summer weather here, and are happy with our...

I know of a late 1950’s gas Speed Queen dryer that has been in use until just recently. The pilot light doesn't seem to want to stay lit on it any more. The owner recently passed away, and the house, which just sold is being cleared out. The dryer, currently in the basement will be hauled away...

To update the situation on my WO-65-2 Frigidaire washer, I decided not to rush into opening the console. Before going ahead with jumping the reset switch, I thought I would more aggressively retry pushing and pulling the switch with a needle nose pliers. Figuring there might be a bit of...

Occasionally I use my WO65-2 washer. From time to time I've noticed an intermittent chattering or slight squeal whenever the motor runs, assuming it to be the motor fan and choosing to ignore it. A change in this noise recently included a slight dimming of the lights on the same circuit as the...

GE combo update Just to answer and update . . . In regard to the GE combo rewiring, it was obviously a matter of just disconnecting the brass jumper from the white terminal and isolating the green to the chassis to complete the correct updated wiring. Duh . . . just didn't see it for myself...

Hi Guys, Hope everyone’s doing OK. Long time no post, I know. While I always check in on what’s going on in the Applianceville website from the sidelines, admittedly my interest in old appliances has sort of waned. Occasionally however, I come across a machine that I can’t refuse. I got a call...
