    FB MarketPlace Find: 1985 SPIN-DRAIN Kenmore DD!

    Today I had planned to get this machine which was located about 2-½ hrs away from home in Buhl ID since it was a freebie (mom also came along for the ride and we did some other sight-seeing in Twin Falls for her mother's day present, great day all around). Guy said it wouldn't spin, to which I...

    Commercial Whirlpool Washer Sounds Like It's Filling But Isn't

    I had to go today to look at a commercial washer model# CAE2745FQ1 because the maintenance guy said he'd hear it running like it was filling but no water was coming into the tub. Said no signs of water leaks or spraying anywhere else from the back or underneath. When I got there it was...

    Mystery Washer?

    Only have the one photo from a FB marketplace ad. Can anyone identify it? Looked quite different from the ones I had seen before.

    My Newest Find From Day Before This Post:

    1989 Whirlpool dark gray-panel DD. Thing's basic and a beauty! Was told it flooded laundry room out, and cannot turn the motor coupler by hand at all with agitator locked onto transmission (agitate mode) so either something fell in and jammed the pump or the transmission is seized up for some...

    Worth a shot anyways...

    Does anyone have this part on hand? I need the left side end cap for my Roper washer control panel. Part# 3358018 (WHT/CHR). Looked all over Google and can't find it so I figured maybe somebody has one lying around? Thanks.

    Direct Drive 2 Speed To 3 Speed Conversion - Need Help

    Does anybody have a diagram for a 3 speed Whirlpool direct drive without a speed selector switch? Trying a mod on my 1992 Kenmore 70 series, 2 speed-to-3 speed conversion. What I've found is that most 3 speed motors have a separate connector for the med/low speed with White>Violet being...

    Dumb Question, But Does Anyone Know?

    What the "WC" number stands for on a drain pump? Some of them differ from each other so that's why I was looking to see whether it was a year code or a revision code or what. One Google result was that it could stand for "water column"? If anyone knows by chance and is willing to impart info...

    Best Way To Clean A Motor

    I have a Magic Chef (Whirlpool) direct drive that was found sitting in a shed for years and as a result, the motor is full of caked on dust around the windings and stuff like that. I've already cleaned everything else up for the most part. I would however like to know the best way to get that...

    1970's Maytag Set In Harvest Gold!

    If somebody wants them! I wish I had the room and means to buy them myself since they're in my area, but alas, I do not. https://www.facebook.com/share/mUBkykWxU7bMG6c5/?mibextid=kL3p88

    Can anyone tell me the date on this washer motor?

    I have a motor that I believe is going bad on a Whirlpool direct drive washer. Looks like a newer motor replacement on an older machine, but gets way too hot when ran, and now it won't even start without manually turning it. Capacitor has been tested and is good. But I'll replace that anyways...

    Washer basket conundrum

    I bought this used basket from a store a few weeks ago. Came with some rust on the bottom & center-post, so I had to do some wire wheeling/angle grinding. I wish I would have asked about this before I already pulled the trigger. I need some advice on the best paint to use to seal and protect...

    Picked up yesterday: Kenmore 80 series DD

    This one was just $35 a couple towns over from me so I said "why not?" This may make a good donor machine to our 70 series, or maybe I'll just fix it up and resell it. Needs a new basket, is the first thing I found right off the bat. I'll hook it up and test it though to see how everything...

    Funny whim that came to me:

    I do wonder if it's possible to build a wooden cabinet for one of these older machines? E.G. an 80s Whirlpool BD/DD with a cabinet made completely out of wood that's maybe polished and lacquered. Probably would have been a special order thing for some elderly person in the 80s or 90s lol. Any...

    Found out something about Whirlpool direct drives....

    This may be something everyone else already knows, all I know is now I think I've finally figured it out too--good for me. On Whirlpool DDs: why the older gray drain pumps have a lower pitch whirring sound than the new pumps do. If you look closely in the pics, the spacing on the impeller fins...
