    Thank you all    Good point on the missing lens in 75. Mine is a 72 . What I'll do next on a A310 top is:   1---The indentation is there but no lens. I'll drill a hole in each corner of the indentation gradually stepping up to about 3/8. 2---I will then cut the straight parts out with my...

    Thanks Chris,              All you need is lid switch 206415 or 2-6415 , It has 3 terminals. Wire yours the same way it is now only the new top switch terminal will be black + to the light. The white from light will go to L2 on the back of your timer. There should be a spare terminal unused. ...

    Michael ,               No hole at all. After the front top bolts are removed the entire top assembly is raised  and you will see the clear lens on the top drum . The light is attached to the top underside lid shining DOWN . The light does not rotate nor does the top or cover. The inner tub...

    last pics Although the bleach injection is rigged,It works well without back up or leakage. That's sloppy of me to leave silicone grease on the tub . I used it on the new top tub seal. Yes there is plenty of tubing with enough fall for spin and out of balance spin, You'll notice the bleach tank...

    Last pics of 806  I have ran 4 loads and not one leak or squeak, I am working on someone to help with the video . Here are the last pictures of the 806    1 believe placing the harness in wire loom should be the norm on these old machines, And John--I changed to an LED tub bulb and it made a...

    Now this is homemade but it worked out great. I used some 1-1/4 aluminum angle and lamp parts from Lowe's. I soldered and used heat shrink for a harness and used a 3m epoxy that I had along with a 25w bulb. I changed out the lid switch for the correct part . The tub pic was taken in the dark.

    99.9% I just turned 60 and it seems as though it takes me all day to accomplish 2 things .   I rebuilt the injector assy. with all new parts & hoses. That black is not silicone it's the KBS rust paint .

    SAVE THAT THOUGHT !!! Why not wait  to answer when I show the finished product in a few days. It may not have theatrical  orchestra's or be perfect, But I suspect it should be worthy of a re badge . If you or others think the original shell is required for a full restoration- I will understand...

    CURIOUS MFG YEAR Ben,         For that exact reason,To find an ID tag as close as possible to the year. I had no idea you saved it. Would you consider selling it? BTW The cabinet  is the only part that is not original to an 806 . It will have everything a 72- 806 had.

    Thanks John,                     That means whoever drilled the 1/8 hole was a homeowner without proper knowledge or an old Maytag pro who thought otherwise on pump replacement with the bleach dispenser--I digress. Does anyone know when the pure lead tub support arm washers were discontinued...
