    For those of you in the know, what are your opinions of this dishwasher. I know it is not one of the higher end models and customer reviews are mixed. Sorry, I don't have a picture to post.

    Out with the old…

    In with the not much newer. We bought this GE washer new in Jan. 2004. I know these are not highly respected but this one has faithfully cleaned our laundry for all these years with never a single repair. When the bearings started to scream during spin, I knew it’s days were limited. Thought...

    GE dryer question

    GE dryer model # DX4500EE1 has developed a bad habit of running 10 to 15 minutes then stops. If I wait 20 or so minutes, I can restart the dryer but again, shuts off after a few minutes. Does this sound like an overheating motor or is there something else I should check? After about 4 or 5...

    Speed Queen spin issues

    I have been toying around with a Speed Queen, model #AWS45 NW that has trouble getting up to speed during spin. On many loads, the spin cycle is almost finished by the time the tub gets up to speed. I have replaced the belt, replaced the tensioner spring on the idler pulley, still with same...

    Maytag motor woes

    My old Maytag washer (model 142) is giving me another hurdle to jump. I think my motor is frying. Washer starts up just fine in agitate or spin mode, runs smooth and quiet, but the motor heats up very fast, smells hot, and emits a faint swirl of smoke when I stop it. I'm not sure this is the...

    whirltag/maypool dryer advice needed

    Does anyone have a wiring diagram for a Maytag dryer model # MED5740tqo that they can share? Problems are: 1. No cool down period---heat continues to cycle on/off till the dryer shuts off. 2. I replaced the 4 position temp. switch but there is no difference in the temp. on the 3 selectable...

    Kitchen Aid KEYS850 dryer advice needed

    I recently aquired this very nice Kitchen Aid dryer that works great EXCEPT that it seems s l o w at drying. Whether on automatic or timed dry with HIGH heat selected, every load has to be dried a second time. Today I dried a load of towels, set timed dry at 70 minutes. When done, load was...

    Norgetag bahaving badly?

    A friend called because her washer wasn't spinning the water out of her clothes. Upon exam, the washer agitates fine but when it goes into spin, the tub will spin but the agitator continues to agitate (spinning and agitating at the same time). The water pumps out fine but the tub never gets up...

    GE dryer question

    Maybe a stupid question, but here goes. Can the motor start switch be replaced on the newer GE dryers (model # DBXR463EDOWW) or does the entire motor have to be replaced? Friends have one with heat issues that I think I've traced to the motor switch. Sometimes heats, sometimes doesn't. When...

    Dancing Estate

    I recently got my hands on an Estate washer (mod. # TAWS800JQ) that will not spin smoothly---even when empty! Yes, I've adjusted the leveling legs, it is sitting firmly on the concrete floor in my workshop. Even with no clothes, this thing starts waltzing across the floor. Even more strange...

    Christmas color wheel collection

    Through my years of visiting AWO, I've enjoyed everyone's collections of washers, dryers, dishwashers, mixers, and so forth. Thought I'd share some pictures of my unusual collection--color wheel made for aluminum Christmas trees. These have fascinated me all my life. When these trees were the...

    Admiral (Norge-Tag) question

    A friend called me over today to see why her 4 or 5 yr old noreg-tag won't agitate. Upon checking it out, it sounds like it's washing rocks! It will agitate, though not too smoothly, for a little bit, then comes to a grinding halt. The rock crushing sound seems to come from the transmission...

    Maytag LAT 8504 question

    I like this washer but I can't get it to stop leaking. I replaced the stem, boot seal according to your directions posted here, worked great for several loads, started leaking again. Replaced stem and seal again(using new parts), being very meticulous to follow your directions. Washer leaks...
