Crap I think I missed this one I didn’t check back here in time. It said there was no shipping available though so I probably wouldn’t have got it anyways. Thanks for posting that I appreciate it. I guess that’s another place I can check periodically.

Yes I’m sure that’s the case lol. If we only knew half of the awesome things that we would all go nuts for that get just thrown away it would just destroy us. I think you’re right about The 1984 to 85 timeframe that this came out. I have heard before also that it was mostly powder detergent...

Thank you. Yeah I have a Downey jug. There always seems to be those available. I will continue my search until I find one. Also have a cascade jug.

Hey just checking on here to see if anybody might have one of these vintage 1980s tide laundry Detergent jugs for sale. I’m creating a vintage laundry room and thought it would be fun to get period Appropriate containers for my fabric softener and laundry detergent. I’ve been constantly checking...

Well I’m happy to report that putting a new valve in it seems to have fixed the issue. I’ve also got this weird thing that my dryer does once in a while. It will only run for a short amount of time and then it shuts off with the clothes still wet. I have to restart it multiple times to get the...

Yes I have other old washers I can use. This washer has a two solenoid valve. And I always thought I would use these as long as possible. And if the day comes I can’t use them anymore I will just swap them out for another set I have. But until that day comes I would like to have them as my daily...

Hey guys haven’t been on here for a while. But I have a 906 set that I have been using for quite a while now. They are in my home and they are the main washer and dryer that are used. I live alone so they only get used about once a week. All the sudden my washer has decided that it doesn’t want...

Oh ok! I didn’t know that the panels where inner changeable for so many years. That definitely helps a lot! The later model ones definitely pop up more often. I just have to have on without the chrome trim. I have actually had this for a few months and I’m just now getting around to posting...

Hey everybody. I had someone contact me a while back asking if I wanted some old appliances in a house that they had recently bought and I’m just now getting around to posting lol. This dishwasher was in the mix. It is the dishwasher I have always wanted but unfortunately they said they didn’t...

LOL yes. I am still proudly displaying those two beautiful Maytag sets that I got from you.! 🙂

I have considered it several times. But every square inch of space I have is full unfortunately.

The dryer is located in Centerville Iowa. It’s been sitting in this thrift store for quite a while. Seems to be in really nice shape.

Oh OK bummer. Yeah that would be a really long long drive lol. The whole dryer is $100.

Gas Maytag dryer Hello. I see you are really wanting a Maytag with a lid control panel. There is one at a local thrift store in my area. I’m not sure where you are located but I thought I would put it on here in case you’re interested.

Timer motor. When the machine would shut down I could still hear the timer advancing through the cycle. Every so often you could hear a click and you could also hear the timer motor running. To me it almost seems like a contact is bad. Sometimes the machine would do a sort of jerking motion a...

OK yeah I will definitely check all the connections. If I do have to end up having it rebuilt who do you guys recommend. That’s something I have never looked into before. As funny as it sounds it is actually getting better. The more times I use it the better it gets. Now I don’t have to tap it...

Found the problem Well I found out what is making it pause an agitation during the wash cycle. It is the timer. I did my first actual load and it this morning and after it stopped I just tapped the timer with a screwdriver and it kicked on. Then it would kick back off and I would tap it again...

Thanks for all the information everybody. Yeah I think the machine had a little bit of tinkering done to it before I got it. I can see the drain pump has been replaced and it also appears that the main tub bearing and seal has been replaced also. Whenever I get some spare time I will go through...

Timer issues. So I am guessing that something is wrong with the timer. When it is just sitting I can still hear the timer clicking as it is advancing. But I thought that was really short agitation time. But it runs through the rinse and Final spin like normal. Here’s a couple more pictures of...
