Just want to thank all of you for your helpful advice and apologize for not responding sooner. Been a very busy week what with Halloween and having to take down the yard display and put away the decor for another year (I'm getting too old for this :) ) Thanks again

Hubby wasn't sure if he needed a specific tool or not. He thought about this method but didn't want to try it in case he broke something. Thanks for the swift reply!

Just had one of the fins on my 2016 Speed Queen top loader AWN432SP113TW04 washer break off. It was a good size piece right at the bottom. I am always careful to wash smaller loads. In fact when I usually wash jeans I only do three at a time with nothing else. On this load is was just ONE pair...

Last call................. Bumping this up for the final time. If anyone is interested in a part off of this, perhaps the timer which works fine, please contact me. It is going to the "recycling" center this coming Saturday.

This was supposed to post in the Shoppers Square section but showed up here. Sorry.

I have a Maytag A606 washer, turquoise color that I am offering free for parts. Or perhaps someone here can get it working again. I created a thread on this forum in November 2016 seeking advice. The washer suddenly stopped agitating and with the assistance of the knowledgeable folks here it...

Thank you stevet! I went ahead and bought the heating element to have on hand. We bought a circuit board/timer (very hard to find), the door interlock switch, the "push button" panel, blower motor and motor relay. I know many would insist we are nuts for wanting to keep using an old dw vs a...

Our beloved Kitchenaid dishwasher that was in this house when we moved in 26 years ago stopped working couple of weeks ago. I thought we would have to give in and buy one of the new pieces of junk that they sell now. But hubby got it working today.....(big sigh of relief) We have picked up...

Whirlykenmore78 I agree with you. Last October my beloved Maytag A606 from the 1960's finally bit the proverbial dust. I loved that washer. It took weeks of research to locate a new machine that was as close to "old school" as that one. Metal gears and actual belts my husband can change himself...

And here is another........ Also saw this one in MASS http://worcester.craigslist.org/atq/5919590129.html

Just saw this on MASS craigslist, what a beauty. Hope it finds a good home http://boston.craigslist.org/sob/atq/5932180860.html

sorry, I spelled widget wrong, no way to edit...

oldwiget We also have an A606 (Turquoise color!)that finally gave out on me in October. It would agitate but not spin. thanks to the fine folks here we figured out that the transmission ran out of oil. I hated to say goodbye after so many years and so many miles (it traveled all the way from...

I am not on a well but on town water. I want a machine that will actually fill up. I realize others have to consider how much they use ie my own mother has a well. The eco cycle is an option for those who need it.

One more thing... As instructed by the appliance dealer Glenn I only use about 2 tablespoons of detergent. I copied this from a question answered at the SQ website on water usage: "A mini cycle is 16.3 gal, small is 18 gal, medium is 19.7 gal, and X-large is 21.5 gallons" According to Glenn...

corgigrrl... Sorry to reply late. The model I chose was the only top load with the mechanical dial, AWN432SP113TW04. It is also the cheapest however that is not why I bought it. I was actually tempted by the mid model AWNE82SP113TW01 with the touch pad. It was $50 more. As we looked over each...

Just relaying my own experience..... Our 50 year old turquoise Maytag A606 finally gave out on us before Halloween. I immediately began searching the internet for info and reviews. I also came to this forum and sought repair guidance. Well it turned out to be a pretty much impossible fix...

Thank you combo52 Thanks for the detailed instructions! Hubby is going to go with your #2 suggestion. He likes that idea and is going to give it a try in the coming weeks. He knows how to make a plug because he does all of our auto work and has the kits he needs. And you just saved us $$ from...

Another Update...... Hubby took apart the bottom pulley and bearing. Was full of what looks like trans oil. He was able to free the agitator but it seems to be sticking when he moves it back and forth by hand. He believes the transmission ran out of oil. Repairclinic.com sells trans oil for...

Well we can't get in touch with the seller so it doesn't matter now anyways. We went and ordered a new Speed Queen today, the model with the mechanical dial. I know it's new but I have been without a washer for three weeks. At least I feel good about buying it from a locally owned business...
