Does anyone know where I can get the butter conditioner/heater? Mine is rusted on my FPI-15B-61. I took a picture of what I think is the part number (6582269). Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi gang, I just recently acquired a turquoise 1963 Frigidaire FPI and am trying to diagnose an issue so hoping the scholars here can assist. After giving her a deep cleaning both outside and inside, I plugged it in to see what she would do. The entire fridge came to life and looked beautiful...

Hi everyone, I have a 1961 Frigidaire FPI 15-B refrigerator and she has stopped cooling in the refrigerator section. The freezer is doing great and keeping the correct temperature but the refrigerator on top is at 70 degrees! I've already replaced the defrost timer and the cold control switch...

Hey everyone, my friend has the classic Maytag set with the light up panels and the dryer (806, I believe) has the electronic control settings. The issue we are having is that about 10 minutes after turning on a load to dry, the bell goes off indicating they are done, which obviously they are...

Hi everyone, My 1961 Frigidaire FPI-15B is not cooling as well lately and I'm wondering if it's just needing a charge of freon. Has anyone ever checked or had their levels checked in your vintage fridge? Do you know if it's possible to have a current appliance repair specialist check out the...

I have the "spoke" Reducing Pulley on my DE806 Maytag and it has a separate bushing that goes on the shaft. I can't find any parts diagram that shows the part number of this bushing. All of them seem to have a solid "panel" pulley and they seem to have the bushing built-in. I can't even find...

Hey everyone, I am trying to finish out my restoration of my 1960 ranch home and I need to find either a vintage all in one washer/dryer or the stacking units from the era. I don't see them for sale very often and was wondering if anyone here is willing to "weed out" their collection or looking...

Hi everyone, I am trying to find a vintage all in one washer/dryer. My laundry room has very limited space and I want to stay true to using all vintage appliances in home as I have done up until now. If anyone has a collection and is willing to part with one, and I don't have to sell a kidney...

Hi everyone, as you can see from the subject, I have a 1961 frost-proof Frigidaire refrigerator model 15B that is having an issue in the refrigerator food section. I found a large amount of clear water on the floor (the section below the drawers for meat storage and egg storage) and discovered...

Hi everyone! I just found a very nice KDS-18 for sale locally for cheap. I brought it home, hooked it up, removed both front panels (the door and kick panels) so I could watch her operate. I found 2 areas that leaked after running the entire suite of cycles: 1) she has some leaking around the...

Hi gang, I saw this Lady Kenmore dryer posted in the SS forum here and it's about an hour away from me. I really like the looks of what I can see but there aren't many pictures. I've asked for the model number from the seller and am waiting to hear back but can anyone tell which model this is...

Hi forum, This pair has popped up on eBay but is located right around the corner from me. They are being sold as a non-working set because they apparently need repair. Does anyone have any insight into these models? I'm definitely not paying the $200 opening bid for a non-working set but need...

Hi ladies and gents, I have the opportunity to pick up this matching Maytag washer/dryer set for pretty cheap this weekend. The seller has had them for over 10 years with no major issues. Recently the dryer has started making a noise that they believe are the bearings and her husband has...

Hi everyone, I have a KitchenAid KDS- 17 which needed new door springs when I acquired it. I was finally able to purchase the springs but was wondering if anyone has replaced theirs in the past and can walk me through it. I'm not severely mechanically inclined, but this should be a fairly...

Hi everyone, I am having defrost issues in my 1961 Frigidaire (FPI-15B-61) and believe it is the defrost timer based on reading past posts from folks here. Does anyone know the part number or know where I can find it? I haven't taken the fridge apart yet but would like to track down the part...

Hi everyone, I am looking at a KDS-37 SST which I understand was part of a stainless steel sink unit. I've heard the dishwasher is simply a KDS-17 but included in this one piece sink unit when sold new but I want to use the dishwasher as a built in under counter model in my kitchen without the...

Hi everyone, I am trying to find information on the door seals for my 1961 Frigidaire Frost Proof fridge (FPI-15B-61) and thought you guys might be able to help. I would like to replace them but cannot find a part number for the fridge or freezer door seals to start the search for the parts...

Hi forum family, I already posted this request but it mistakenly went to the Imperial forum and I was thinking it may need to go here. I have found the vintage KA dishwasher that I need for my kitchen but it's located about 5 1/2 hours away one trip. I was hoping to find someone who lives near...

Hi forum family, This is really a long shot but I found the vintage KA dishwasher that would be perfect for my kitchen but it's 5 1/2 hour drive away one way. I was wondering if there were any members near Shaler or Pittsburg Pa that may travel south from time to time? I would be willing to...

Hello again everyone, I found the following KDS-17A (at least that's what the seller calls it) on Craigslist and need to have your expert opinions on this model and the comments in the listing. I have no experience in selecting a vintage dishwasher but I believe this is a Superba model and...
