The washer looks like an LFA-5800. Yes? No? LFA-something.

Neighbors had an LFA-7800. They ran into trouble with it having excessive vibration sometimes during spin. The local appliance dealer where they bought the machine (and where I worked during high school, but was no longer working there by this time) couldn't find anything wrong. I checked the machine a couple times myself, being that they were neighbors, and it didn't exhibit the trouble. So they ended up calling a dealer in a nearby town, who replaced bearings and all sorts of parts that I didn't think could possibly be bad. An accessory balance kit was also installed, a weighted ring clamped to the top of the basket . . a service kit that had apparently been released to deal with this exact problem. They didn't have any more trouble with it after that.

I have a pretty fast download speed at home (though I drool over y'all's 8MB and T3 circuits!, so I don't mind downloading from the site.

However it would be really appreciated if videos on the site were also available in Quicktime format or something else that was cross-platform. Not all of us use WindowsMediaViewer; at least two of us here (me & someone else) use Macintosh with Quicktime.

If you'd like them sure LOL I'll take pictures and post them before I head to my brothers house for the night. All of the vids are on my laptop so I'll bring that with me, that'll give me something to do since I have the house to myself.

My belted 1978 Whirlpool is an LFA 5800!

That is EXACTLY what my 1978 belt driven Whirlpool is, an LFA 5800,same agitator, tub ring, lint filter, control panel, all! A duplicate of the washer you all were talking about!

not a solid state (far as i know)

compwiz,

I think the solid state models are the digital ones like this:

The machine the pics above is the exact one my grandparents had in their rental house in palm desert! I so remember that control panel!

First vid sent.

Hi Everyone,

Ok, the first vid has been sent to all who requested and gave me an E-mail address. This was not without some problems though. Some were returned to me because of various reasons, mostly being that the file size was too big for some of your mailboxes, if you DID NOT receive it, please do let me know and we'll see what we can do to remedy it.

apologies,
Geoff

 

[geoff]

As promised, first vid out by Christmas, and here are the control panel shots as requested
