update so, a big nail got past the screen, and wiped out a couple fins on the blower wheel.. It happens. This dryer only has 'high heat' on the auto-sense. Then it's got timed high, low, and no heat (fluff) Far as I could tell, all the timed cycles work as they should. I'm...

just got done running the dryer minus the drum. It's definitely in the motor/blower. Cannot feel any tell tale signs of bad bearings in the motor.. radially, or axially. May have a blob of crap stuck in the fan, or a broken fin or two...

have a RED4400Vq1 Roper dryer that's been bugging me all winter. High frequency vibration that really gets the sheetmetal cabinet humming. I replaced the 2 rear rollers, front and rear 'bearing/seal' and the belt+tensioner, even though they didn't seem worn/loose/tight.. As bad a...

Better add some more info; RED4400VQ1 model. DOESN'T HAVE MOISTURE SENSOR in the drum. The 'cutout notch' is there for one. This is a cheaper model, and it isn't equipped with it. So, 'cycling thermostat' the next suspect?

My electric Roper dryer in 'automatic' advances the dial to 'done' with about half the moisture removed. I went through the whole machine and de-linted it. It wasn't too bad, as about a year ago, I had a foreign object in the blower, so when i got that out, I cleaned the machine at...

That sweet temp controller I mentioned... IS Available for US market.. 120v!! For 16 bucks, some wiring, and making a filler plate to put in where the old stat resided... Should get me what I need! It's programmable, for delay restarts.. alarm.. all-in-one!

I 'bled off' just a sort burst.. which was gas, not liquid. (just for giggles) ...waiting on a scale to arrive... we needed one to accurately measure other things too... I found that before I bled it off, my 'chilled' running pressure was closer to 4-5 psi.. 'chilled'...

ok ok!! I'll start all over from scratch. and round up a scale to do it correctly. I followed a youtube ;) example of going by the suction side pressure for recharging purposes.

Yes. big ol' 134a sticker right on the compressor!

As some of you know, finding a deep freezer of any shape or size since March is pretty tough. So of course, I have one that needs replaced or fixed! This is a Woods CF22. Last fall, I got a high temp warning buzzer in the middle of the night. No big deal, we...

'Does what it is supposed to do' Using the exact same soap, and amount used in my previous maytag centennial.. WITHOUT the off balance issues. The clothes come out smelling like fresh cotton.. not remnant's of soap, or fragrance. Coming out of the dryer just seems 'softer' too...

@launderess ;) Around here, we called 'em CRISPY HIPPIES.. or Crispy Critters.. Regional differences??

Thanks John. I learned something today! Neutral Drain!! I assumed the 'crap' on top would fling outwards from centripetal force! What you say makes sense too. The Filter Flo basket on GE built washers really had an advantage didn't they.. catching a fair amount of lints and such.

My son said something today that got me thinking; "Seems like there is a LOT of products on the shelf that are Non irritating, non allergenic, etc... that never seemed to be even an issue from 10 or more years ago" or as much of an issue as today. Yes, some folks are flat...

SCORE!! Today was Christmas Part II My Lwn432 showed up in the back of a semi! Lucked out, my road was frozen up pretty good. last week was a slog from all the melting snow. So no whining from the driver today! This machine replaces a box store Maytag Centennial circa...

I'm assuming you paid about 1000 bucks for yours, and what, 200 for the panel??? (no idea) list it on ebay!!! Last awn 'new in box' brought $1875... FOB!! Man, I'd sit in my shop all day long converting these over for $600 profit... but, before you buy a full...

Well, got my updates on the shipping! My SQ is in Omaha!! another day or two, and it should be pulling into my driveway. Ordering between Christmas and New Year's... which really was a funky work week for most.. My new washer sat on appliancesconnection loading dock until...

talk about your drain pipe arrangement I lived in a place that also had a washer that liked to 'puke' suds up. It was odd because it only did it in the winter time. Turns out the vent stack was plugged from frost, There was air back flowing and this air was pushing suds up...

yeah, it's been 15 yrs since my 'visit' to chic They did have the fast pay lanes, but since I was only there as a visitor, I didn't have that capability.. 1 quarter, 1 dime, one nickel. rinse and repeat. geez, I think I spent 12 bucks just to get to the hockey arena...

People do wierd things when NIB or. last one is printed And apparently on appliances too! I paid 919 for mine, LWN432 'delivered' from somewhere from the Bronx. (still waiting) During the weekend, I've found them at actual drive up, back up to the dock, and load her up places...
