    Re: Whirlpool usa toploader 3rgsc9400slo

    Is the drain hose tight in the stand pipe ? if it is a 1 1/2″ stand pipe, the thickness of the drain hose often will cause syphoning action, especially if on certain programmes where cold is intermittently taken in and drained to gradually reduce wash temp so cold rinse doesnt shock fabrics… Also stand pipe should be quite high up…. ?

    this is a different version mark . issue with inlet solenoid shorting, damaging board (s) and jamming ice solenoid on which then overheats . not the well documented “other” whirlpool board faults

    very common on the newer units ; officially recommended to replace ice solenoid, rear board front board and water inlet valve 😯

    If only – the lid is clean as a whistle but there is no plate that I can find on it just a big label saying when to use what wash powder/programme.

    it will be . lift the lid to 45 degrees , then look along the rim , usually just above the spout that chutes the water into the tub ….
    but as the others state , clutch is very common to all the versions .
    and this http://appliancejunk.com/forums/index.php?topic=6428.0 will tell you how to do it ( video demo on the 1st page )

    Re: Whirlpool Top Loader – Identification Needed

    Just for reference, the model and serial numbers are on a plate where the lid pivots …. lift the lid, scrape away 8 years of crusted soap powder ( taking care not to scrape the label away at the same time 😆 ) … et voila

    Re: Samsung RS21FCSV iceing up.

    No problem , hope it goes well ; just remember the plug needs to come out before the panel comes off , and not plugged back in until the panel is safely clipped back on . 😆

    Re: Samsung RS21FCSV iceing up.

    unplug the fridge 1st , then from the outside of the door , very gently pry and lever the plastic frame that surrounds the dispensers and has the display inside – it just clips in all round, no screws . then support the dangling panel while you look at the chute mechanism … it should be obvious what goes where . then just clip the surround back on and plug back in 😆

    Re: Samsung RS21FCSV iceing up.

    with the freezer door open, look down the chute ( from inside ) that the ice drops into to dispense, and see if there is daylight . the “door” that shuts when the ice has dropped can break, allowing ambient air back into the freezer and then forms ice droplets

    Not got any at the moment , Jim but given they retail at £2.50 each , I have bought a massive o ring kit from cpc ( loads of different sizes ) and it was on offer about £11 or £12 I think, and I have used them for loads of different things – been really handy . Next day delivery too

    updated…. just checked, here it is http://cpc.farnell.com/duratool/d00282/ … dp/TL10491 and only £6.09 , bargain !

    Re: Is this job worth it ??

    I have been in this trade for 32 years , since leaving school , and have gone from having pride and enjoyment from a varied and interesting job to suffering the anxiety , arguments and even apprehension about going out in the mornings . I offer a 1 hour time slot each day for my first job , and even for these , 50{e5d1b7155a01ef1f3b9c9968eaba33524ee81600d00d4be2b4d93ac2e58cec2d} of the time I have customers asking me to ring first , make it between so and so …..
    When I first started out, we gave a 10 hour slot on a day perhaps a week away … We are fighting it from all sides and honestly, I am struggling to keep my business afloat and am not sure any more if I even want to 🙁

    Ok, now after isolating the mains to the machine , disconnect both connections to the element and tape the wires up seperately so they dont short together or to anything else ; Then reconnect machine and run another rinse cycle and see what happens

    What?….bl**dy hell matey..are you serious? Let’s just stick to giving safe advice in the public forums if you don’t mind. 🙁
    if the fella has managed to replace thermostats , martin, i think a basic test to prove his hose connection is achievable
