You are going to have so much fun with this machine, you may never be able to live without Wash-a-way, Rinse-a-way laundering ever again! Did you get to play on the Scrubbing Dome when you were here last June?

Er.........Greg, what's a scrubbing dome?
Is that a Kenmore reference?

Yes I think I will need help. I accept your offer for assistance. Do you have a truck? I'll gas it up and pay the tolls and we will be off!

The Scrubbing Dome is the cone-shaped "dome" on the back of the Westinghouse drum that the clothes slide and flex over as they are tumbling. You'll love it!

Repair Manual
I think I have a repair manual for the Westinghouse Front Load washers, (the early models also). I will start looking for it. When you can. let me know the year and model number. If I can find the manual, it is YOURS!

First the power cord is NOT grounded.
Then this..the hose connector threads are-
one of metal and
one of plastic.
The COLD side is metal.. (scratches head, HUH?)
Were these replaced/sold separately then?
LOL...and the biggest mystery in the universe..what the heck is that third hole there for?
