Yes I am! Lol. Gimme now! Lol
Calypos Washer ?
Martin that is not actually a Calypso washer, lol. Sears dropped the Calypso name as the name was becoming a liability to sales. I do believe that the model you just picked up may be the best of these machines as they made several durability improvements in this one, and if Brain L doesn't grab it he is missing out.

Questions.......
changed the pump, still no go.......
Whats the sequence for the Diagnostic mode.....for this model a web site claimed to hit DELAY and VOLUME back and forth twice until 5 seconds shows up in the screen, and then hit WATER TEMP, 00 should be displayed, and then hit EXPRESS wash......no deal......
I want to try kicking in the pump manually......this machines function is a little different than the Whirlpool KQ2
thanks for any help

So it's not the pump, so let's see. They did say to check for clogs to it that check ball valve area and sump for obstructions as well. Is it the pump isn't even turning on? All the stuff I seem to find is all Whirlpool, other than that one article I sent over last night. I will try and look some more, maybe someone else has any ideas?
The original pump seemed fine....but then again I had ones get stuck from just sitting, or sand and threads wrapping around the impellor.....this is the new designed pump...all-n-1...
but no movement from the pump at all.......
we may be looking at board issues...anyone have spares or a parts machine?
model 110.25062500
serial CS3907294

You're saying the one you put in is the new design, or they both were the new design? Aren't these 120v motors that can be test with a wire. Not sure if I read that somewhere correctly last night.
Still cannot find another procedure list for tests. I'm surprised the one I sent didn't work right.

How about this one
Seems like a different procedure from the last one I sent.

yeah, both pumps are the new design......considering this is a 2006, it has all the updates and newest design corrections....there are a few things I can spot right away as updated compared to my Whirlpool, yet both around the same year....one main thing is the outter tub, although plastic, has a wrap around insulation jacket, to keep the water hot....
one thing I can't find is the schematics normally inside the cabinet.....
don't give up hope Brian....this thing is too new to not be able to find parts....
we've only started on this thing......

I won't give up
I am so grateful to have someone so kind as to pick one up for me, and now spending fixing time on it, all because I said I wanted one. And a steal at $65 nonetheless. Hopefully that other URL helps you out a bit more.

UPDATE.....
OK...was getting no where with the diagnostic funtioning as required.......
blind as a bat....I could not find the schematics in the cabinet or under the control panel...as in mine........
went to pull the front panel ou to start putting this thing back together.....and there it was, stuck onto the panel..........
BUT..it says "for service technician only!".....well, he ain't here...SCREW him!
followed the directions.......unplugged everything in the control panel, replace everything again, power it up, and start hitting the "dance" keys....everything fired up, and it started pumping.......
