Hi Eddie! The GE combo works. Clothes come out dry and very hot! I need to replace the timer motor now. I'm currently working on the water cooling and recycling system. I also put in a bigger motor for sudden reversing for clothes distribution. Also working on the leg switch, and Changing...

More stuff to get munched...

The last of my Kenmore 90 stuff..

&

Clearing out my parts again...here are misc timers, some pumps. They'll be munched in 5 days if no one claims them. NO SHIPPING!

Dream machines? If that's the case, if these are true dream machines for someone, they'd be willing to shell out, part with, or do a number of other things just to get the machines. You see it here all the time. Really? >$2,000 for a old, crusty Charcoal Black W/D? I rest my case.

Someone must claim this machine in the 7 days before the Primus replacement comes. If not the Catalyst gets ripped in the mid section and dropped by the fork tines! Local pickup only. No parts will be taken from this machine, so don't ask.

Success!!! It walks, talks, kicks, poops, and pees! Need to make a minor change in the program. Need to change some settings in the VFD to properly reflect the load. Have another idea i'm going to implement.

Now that I'm no longer hugging the toliet... My guess is that the problem for me this that I at first liked you so much that I took your opinions and thoughts too seriously. At that time I considered you my friend too, but since I saw your comment about the Blue Whirlpool, total shock! Either...

166_mustang: I think you will find your machine eventually. You may have to look harder, It will turn up. Then it is just a matter of distance and what you are willing to do in order to get it to you. For Field wound DC motors, are you talking about Field circuit + brush circuit...

Conflict of interest John, the attack was started by you, it's just that I'm just now finding out about the comment that you on my modifications. A Negative comment with no merit made on my modifications is a personal attack to me. Maybe it's just that unlike some people who you criticize on...

Except that the systems in the machines of today are proprietary, composed of components that are of inferior quality, and the controllers over drive the motor. If as YOU claim I missed the boat or not, who really gives a FK! At least my modifications use generic industrial parts! To my...

Qualin: Yes, Use the original timer for the other operations of the machine. Yes, I could have used just relay logic with timed relays and the such for signaling the VFD, however I want to be able to change the tumble and spin sequences. Using just the relay logic won't allow me to do that as...

John I take it that must be an implied yes. Have you considered that maybe I don't want the Blue Whirlpool to be fully automatic? Have you considered that maybe I want to push this machine to its limits? Ya see that's the thing, my modifications are not based on your BS slanted grading system...

My video must have gotten leaked! I take it John must have missed his Pap-Smear that week! I proved you wrong on the Blue Whirlpool, Looks like I'll be doing it on the GE Combo too! Many thanks to the positive comments from everyone else. I took the filter out because it really doesn't do...

Well 1966_mustang, sure would be nice if I knew your name! The below link should sum up some of the questions on the Blue whirlpool. http://www.automaticwasher.org/cgi-bin/TD/TD-VIEWTHREAD.cgi?33929

They are labeled accordingly. Logic(input to LOGO!): Tumble relay = high = I1: high Spin relay = high = I2: high tumble sequence: I1 = high I2 = low spin sequence: I1 = high I2 = high nothing: I1 = low I2 = low I1 = low I2 = high

I could have used the extra terminals in the contactors to do this, but I make it a point to isolate the DC signals from the AC signals!

Now! I need logic from the machine to tell the LOGO! what to do. For that I use 2 more relays with 110V coils. These relays act on the contactors that power the VFD and drain pump. The coils are powered by the actions of the contactors, but these two relays switch LVDC going to the inputs of...

Now its time to wire the LOGO! At the bottom of the LOGO!: Start (FEW) signal is wired to Q1 with +12VDC signal Start (REV) signal is wired to Q2 with +12VDC signal Constant speed 1 is wired to Q3 with +12VDC signal Constant speed 2 is wired to Q4 with +12VDC signal At the top of the LOGO!: I1...
