1977 Lady Kenmore washer control panel

[applianceguy47]

Can anyone use this. It came off of a what I believe was a 1977 Lady K. that was functioning fine.

Its yours but you would need to pay for shipping with paypal.

If your interested send me a message with your zip code. I will send you the cost of shipping. I hate to throw it in the scrap metal bin.

You might as well look up the zip code for Charlotte and be prepared! LOL!

Seriously, thanks for being generous to offer it up. Awesome.

Yeah, I can see that making the journey east....

 

[applianceguy47]

Are we going to have a bidding war here, because I can't win playing favorites.
I could list on Ebay.

 

[applianceguy47]

For what it's worth... It came from the family of the deceased elderly couple that purchased it new in NE Connecticut. When I bought it in 2005, the son had it stowed in his attached garage with all the other posessions of his parents.
I doubt it has seen much useage.

Was Sears "Lady Kenmore" the one and only topmost TOL each year, or did even the Lady K have a handful of available different options/Models?

Isn't this panel more likely an 87? It's so nice, but I don't think the brown and black consoles were around that early, and the Keyboards were still produced in the mid-70's. I could be mistaken, of course.

I think the two responses before this one,  <span style="text-decoration: underline;">MUST</span> be right.

Gordon will know all ..

I'm sure we will see a post from him when he logs on ....=)

 

[applianceguy47]

I wish I had the model # tag from the washer. 

 

I don't know how he does it but it is awesomeness.  Gordon would be able to tell us not only the exact time it was manufactured, but also the age,  height, weight, ethnicitiy, sexual prolivities, and political leanings of the person who installed it.

 

[recyclewasher]

if you still got the wiring harness...

I'd be very interested in the harness if you still have it?

 

[applianceguy47]

Are you going to melt it for the copper?

 

[recyclewasher]

Lol

Hell NO!

The washer 'repair' tech already did that to the spare '78 LKM 110.72894810 unit
that's why the price was free (course it was minus the motor, transmission, the "sprangers" took the aluminum sheet from the console) . Thank god they left all the hoses! NLA

No worries, brand new motor and 'made in Brazil-shipped from USA transmission' replaced a couple months later, new end caps, cast iron pulleys, new basket drive and agitator shaft 2 years later, and used motor brackets 2 1/2 years later, now needing to hookup power an give it some amps and volts to let her rip!

Ok where's Gordon?

I know his KM Radar is going nuts about now. I know he will put it to good use. This coincidently is my favorite KM model.

This is a bit curious, for a Lady to have the four water level selections.

 

[kenmore71]

That's definitely a 1977-1980 console.

@ Greg...if 4 water levels were good enough for a TOL Maytag in 1977, why wouldn't they be for a Kenmore

 

[applianceguy47]

It's not a Lady of 78 or 79 because we had the first electronic Ladys then.

 

BTW- I have the lid and triple dispenser cover in Coffee brown, which is what the color this washer was.  A color that was rare after 1982, and I don't believe available in many models of KMs after that point. 

 

 

Its not the real Gordon, but kind of a blow-up doll Gordon until the real one arrives....

 

 

1977 Kenmore

My grandparents kept a ledger book and while going through it they bought a 1977 Kenmore washer for $300.00 and I am trying to figure out about what model would have been in that price range and what agitator it would have had. They sold it when they moved to Florida in 1985 so I never got to...

That is a pre 1981 panel as it does not have the solid borders.

 

[gansky1]

The '76 S&S catalog shows this identically featured model. I'll bet that was a pretty washer in coppertone, one of the few colors I like this panel style on.
