The ongoing saga of my FPI-19-64 Frigidaire. I believe I have solved the icing evaporator issue.. it has been plugged in for about three days with nothing more than light frost. If the defroster wasn't working, it would be an impassable block of ice by this point. I will make a separate post on...

Hello all, many years since I have been able to post here. I made a bunch of repairs to my 1964 Frigidaire Imperial 19 last summer in anticipation of using it with my completely new kitchen, featuring my 40" Frigidaire Flair double-oven/range. Repairs like new gaskets, dent removal and a very...

I posted here because I suppose it's right on the 20 year bubble, but most people probably consider them vintage. Problem is, it will not respond to the "start" button. It will run through the soak-soil-soak-soil 99 second diagnostic just fine, quietly and with no error codes. It fills, pumps...

Pretty much free to a good home. I hate to dumpster it, but the house will soon be sold and it needs to leave. See it here:

Almond. Some wear on control panel. Have bottom closeout panel. $20 fifth89 (atsign) yahoo (.) com Northeast Detroit Suburbs, two expressways nearby.

I would like these to go to a good home. I think I even have the manuals somewhere. Gas stove hasn't been connected in many years, same for the fridge. Priced at $50 each to keep away the scrappers. I also have the matching upright freezer. I would consider adding to the deal, but since this...

My wife has been talking about a second fridge since I guzzle liquids at an alarming rate in the summer, plus extra milk, eggs, etc. storage. Even though she covers the electric bill, I insisted on a frost-full, uh... "yes" frost? However you're supposed to say "no expensive defroster circuit"...

Basically as the title says. I ran a load and watched the wax motor do its thing as it should. Door locked light comes on. Drains normally. So I have two questions... 1) What to check next? Moving this thing away from the wall is a major project that involves me climbing over the top to access...

I have a matched set of 1964 Kenmore koppertone bottom freezer, gas stove and top-o-line upright freezer. Will also include 1983 Maytag DW (almond). Fridge stopped cooling last summer after a power outage. I'm thinking it could be the start cap, but no guarantees. Stove is gas with "brain...

Suddenly stopped working. Element cold. indicator light does not come on. Control "clicks" and otherwise feels normal. Stove functions as per normal. Non-functional indicator makes me want to start in the control circuit, but I'm wonder if others have already invented this wheel? 30" model...

I was at a "remodeling" sale last week and the seller was looking to off this dishwasher ($25), which they've never tried. I'd call the condition good/average. Location is in St. Clair Shores, MI (696/94 area). I have the guy's number, email me if interested... Chromacolor2 at yahoo Dott comm

Hello all, I haven't posted for a while but my vintage finds have been few and my old stuff keeps chugging along; until a few days ago. My Calypso is Kaput. Not completely... I put it into the diagnostic mode and it ran through it just fine. Counted down to zero, pumped, spun, made proper...

I've got a house in Oregon OH that I rent to my sis-in-law. Kitchen has a clean SxS Kenmore fridge from (I'm guessing) the late 80s. She sent a message late last night that the fridge "went out". Don't have any more detail yet, but obviously I don't want to trash the thing (or be bothered with...

Just thought some of you would like to see that I finally swapped my almond KDS-19 for the coppertone 18 I'd bought at least a year before. (It's probably some kind of brown color, but it's close enough to my Aztec Copper Frigidaires that no one notices.) Funny enough, what prompted the swap was...

Long story short, low voltage at my house (85v +/-) left my grandmother's fridge doing nothing but blowing hot air. Luckily it didn't kill my Frigidaire. I'd like to get it working for both sentimental and practical reasons (need to take the Frigidaire down for its annual "cannot deal with...

Let's say a real estate agent is granted the exclusive right to sell vacant lots for a municipality. One of the conditions for sale of the property is that a new home must be constructed within one (1) year. The new homes are built and in each case, the same agent is now the selling agent for...

I decided to tackle installing the 30" Flair I've been sitting on for a year... It will be a nice match for my '64 Frigidaire. Glad I decided to take it apart, as I found a few safety issues (like a wire nut where the plastic insulator is long gone)! Anyway, I'm wondering if the oven "box" can...

I thought some of you might enjoy seeing these products in action during Thanksgiving. They're all owned by my aunt who has no use sentimental attachment; it's just that they've continued to work. She's been pressing my uncle for a new kitchen for at least 20-years. About 5-years ago, the...

Stopped by this house today on my way home from work. Lots of items I think others here might want... I'm trying not to take anything else on after my recent console TV adventure. Address is 22350 Barton, 48081

Long story short, I traded another member on this site some old-timey TV stuff. This became feasible when I flew to Orlando for a vacation, bought a minivan, and drove back to Michigan. http://videokarma.org/showthread.php?t=262782 I hope it's OK if I cross-post from Audiokarma... Don't...
