dadoes:
for the explanation of the rinse temperature knob on the top of the maytag washer control panel.

revvinkevin:
for the picture of the rinse temperature control knob on the top of the maytag washer control panel.

you know, i've seen that knob on the top of the maytag washer's control panel and have read that it was for the rinse water's temperature, but i didn't know exactly how it functioned. and i've always wondered how it actually works. but thanks to you both, now i get the idea.

so, thank you guys....

Extra Knob On Top Of Early 60s MT Washers

MT also had an identical looking knob on the A900S all push-button Suds-Saver washer, except it was labeled Drain-Save-Return, the knob could be left in either the save or drain position, and when turned to the return position it started the rapid advance timer motor to advance the washers timer to the suds return position, as soon as you released the knob it would spring back to the save position.

hey combo52....

thank you for that GREAT explanation on the suds-saver knob on the all push button 900s maytags. it sounds neat the way it would advance the timer to "suds return" position. but being that it is an all push button machine, i guess you couldn't actually see a timer knob/dial advancing. shucks!!!
hm hm.....

All for you, Gorgeous ! Here's the rest.

I was attempting to install another quick connect so that Mark would have both hot and cold to do summer laundry on the deck. I needed an easy way to disconnect the hot water hose each day because the hot water would be coming from the garage, and in order to close the back door at night the hose would have to be out of the way of the door slam.  Here's the old cold one from last year. Worked great, even though I didn't need to disconnect because it ran off an outdoor cold tap.
