1950s Pink Maytag Washer and Dryer

[swestoyz]

Les - the 1957 141 and early 1958 142 washers were indeed helical drive, with the standard Bakelite helical drive agitator w/ filter. They used the AMP top and two-piece lid until late 1958.

By the end of 1958, early 1959, the updated top and single piece lid with the ball hinges was released.

I opened up the lid and there are two mercury switches but the bulb was burned out. I'll replace it tonight and hope it works.

Replacement Agitator

I wonder the agitator is a harbinger of a transmission replacement, which may be a good thing.

Here you go. The DE700 is the later revised model number of the 641C.
