How to Repair a Washing Machine

I found a great article on how to troubleshoot and repair a standard washing machine.  As the article’s introduction points out rather succinctly, there are a lot of parts and pieces to a washing machine, which makes diagnosis of a particular problem difficult.

The article covers basic checks, cleaning the washer, disassembling it, checking the various parts to the machine (switches, timers, valves, the tub, agitator, belts, pulleys, and the motor), and water-related issues.

The article contains plenty of details and even the occasional picture to help you on your repair quest.

As always, make sure you take the proper precautions and unplug the machine, detach the water hoses and the grounding wire.

Good luck!

Whirlpool Reopens Another Plant

Hot on the news that Whirlpool was recalling workers in Arkansas, now we’re learning that Whirlpool will be reopening a plant in Ottawa, OH.

The WC Wood plant will reopen sometime next month, according to this article.

Keep it up, Whirlpool!

Looking for a Discontinued Appliance Part?

It’s not impossible to find discontinued appliance parts.  In fact, it’s extremely easy.  Whether you need discontinued parts for a refrigerator, dishwasher, AC or heating unit, an ice machine, a washer or dryer, or a grill, you have plenty of options.

Many Appliance Parts stores online allow you to search for parts.  However, if a part you’re looking for is discontinued, chances are you won’t find it in any online search.  Don’t fret!  Unless you really want to.  Fretting is optional.

All you need to do is contact the Appliance Parts store directly, either via e-mail or phone.  Most stores have connections to discontinued parts or might have suggestions for where to look.  They may also be able to recommend a substitute from a current model for the same brand as the part you need.

With any luck, your Appliance Parts store can locate a suitable part for your DIY home appliance repair project.

A new beginning

Starting today, this blog will be featuring regular content filled with helpful information for all of your appliance needs.  This brief post is simply an effort to make sure everything is working, very much like sticking your head in a freezer to find out if it’s cold.  (It’s not a comprehensive test, but it gets the job done.)

In the meantime, if you have any appliance-related questions, please don’t hesitate to leave a comment.

I look forward to getting started.  Stay tuned.
