In this video, I decided to test and teardown the HiSense HRB171N6 refrigerator. Its an absolutely bare-bones refrigerator for a budget price. But do those two things work together to make a great product, or does Hi-Sense make no-sense?

In this video, I try to tackle the forced defrost mode on the most popular Samsung Refrigerators on the market. The 4 styles we look at are those with the "Table Top" UI at the top with 6 buttons. The style that has in-door water and ice with buttons or touchscreens to the left and right, the style inside the refrigerator on the right, and then finally the "Samsung Hub" style with the built in tablet computer.

Parts to repair the system: 17438000001615 - Door Lock 17438000000221 - Magnetic Switch If either are testing good, and are not the issue, the control board may be at fault.

If you own a Frigidaire or Electrolux front load dryer like this where it isn't heating, there are 5-6 different things you'd want to check on it to see if there is an issue that can be fixed. I show you how to tear apart the dryer and test all of the critical components to ensure they work, then put it back together. At the end, I show you the most advanced things to consider with troubleshooting a bad board from the pinouts.

In this video, I show you how to do all of the various maintenance on the new LG DLHC5502 heat pump dryer. Proper maintenance will keep it clean, dry, and lasting for as long as possible. One of the most critical modes is not activated by default on the unit, so near the end of the video, I show how to activate & run that mode. Additionally, I suggest the frequency of all the various maintenance steps on the machine, so you have an idea when to do them. These frequencies are based on both LG's recommendations, and other recommendations for similar units and systems.

In this video, I buy, test, teardown, and review the brand new LG DLHC5502V Heat Pump Dryer. its the largest capacity on the US market that I am aware of. After doing two combo washer-dryer units, how does a standalone heat pump dryer from LG work and stack up against the LG 2-in-1 Combo and the GE Ultrafast Combo? Well, its vastly superior in the ways I care about. That may not be the case for you, but in the review, I try to tackle as much as I can. Good and bad, about this new technological dryer and what may be something to consider when purchasing this, or any other heat pump dryer on the market.

If you own a washer similar to this made by Maytag and made generally between 2010 and 2021, there is a secret mode that will let you test all the parts like the water valves, drain pump, spin, and agitate functions that force the machine to operate outside of modes. This is very helpful to test a feature to see what may be bad. Its also very, very helpful to get certain parts removed like stuck-on washplates.

If you own a newer (2022-current) top load Whirlpool washing machine, the reset/recalibration is notably different than nearly-identical Maytag topload washing machines made from 2010 - 2021. The dials are slightly different, but the reset and recalibration process is massively different. It still remains just as critical to do this after installing a part, or if the unit acts funny, so learning how to do this is super helpful. Did this video help you out?

What does the new LG 2-in-1 Combo Washer Dryer look like operationally from the inside? I strapped a GoPro and temperature sensor on the inside of the unit to view the wash and dry action as best as I could. Due to battery performance and heat, the video is not full-length, but with over 1hr of content, you will get a very strong idea on what this unit is capable of with a smaller wash load. Note that the small load was utilized to ensure that you could see the wash/tumble/dry action, as I attempted a larger load a few days ago, which heavily obscured the camera for much of the load. As noted on the video, options used were Turbowash, ColdWash, and +1 rinse. The live energy statistics were provided by a Kill-A-Watt meter. I attempted to use a water meter for flow rate, but it did not work for some reason. Key Timestamps on Wash: 00:00:35 - Sensing Load Test Start 00:01:44 - Water Valves Open, Wash Begins 00:03:46 - TurboWash water jets activate 00:10:22 - TurboWash water jets close 00:13:35 - Low RPM Spin 00:16:05 - Valves Open Again 00:17:12 - Valves close, Washer agitates 00:42:42 - DC Drain Pump Activates 00:47:43 - Unit Begins to Spin 00:54:50 - Camera Dies 00:55:13 - Unit Resumes Drying 01:30:10 - Final Results after GoPro battery dies Tools I use in all videos can be found at my Amazon Idea Page: https://www.amazon.com/shop/bensappliancesandjunk Did this video help you out?

In this video, I show you how to take apart your Samsung refrigerator ice maker system, and modify/install a new heating pad in the icemaker. This is designed to remove the problematic "Ice Beard" that forms at the bottom of the ice maker which clogs up ice, and prevents the unit from working at all. Its also important to check a few other pieces of the Samsung icemaker puzzle in the process, so there are also a few other tips & tricks in the video as you're working with the ice maker too. With the heater pad, it should help you get back to making ice ASAP!

After running the GE Ultrafast Combo 2-in-1 unit, one major issue we found was lint build-up where there shouldn't be any: On the blue evaporator coils. If the build-up gets significant, it could cause worsening times to properly dry the clothes, and also cause premature failure of the heat pump system due to these drying times. In the video, we test a modification of the filter assembly and then test the machines dozens of times to determine if this will in fact solve or at least reduce the problem on the unit.

Although this unit is new on the market and its unlikely that anyone will need to reference it for some time, here are the steps needed to access the heat pump system, remove the cover, then remove & replace the entire assembly as a package. his took a few days to film (hence the change of clothes) just because I wanted to be careful, but it should show you some of the inner workings of all the systems that go into the GE Ultrafast 2 in 1 Washer Dryer Combo, which uses its unique and proprietary heat pump system to get clothes dried faster than a traditional combo machine.

If in case your GE Ultrasfast Combo 2-in-1 Washer Dryer has a problem, it maintains one of the most advanced feature systems on the market to figure out what could be wrong and help solve the problems. In this video, FOR YOUR ENTERTAINMENT PURPOSES ONLY, I show you how to access these hidden modes, what they can do, and how they can help you to fix your machine, assuming its outside of warranty. Remember that your machine has a 1, 5 and 10 year warranty on parts. Although this system can inform you of potential issues, it may not provide complete, exhaustive, or exclusively accurate information on the status of your GE Ultrafast Combo unit.

Certainly a "First of Its Kind" video. I stained some clothes and put them in the GE Ultrafast 2-in-1 Washer Dryer Ventless Combo. As per some of the feedback from the first review, I made the stains worse, and the footage better. I also made sure to get as much telemetry on this as possible. I don't think anyone else has tried this kind of a battery on tests on a front load washer before, much less one that heats up & dries your clothes at the same time.

If you've purchased the new, wildly-popular GE Profile Ultrafast 2-in-1 Washer Dryer Combo unit, it requires that you take care of it for perfect running operation. If you don't, you are likely going to see excessive drying times, damage/degradation of the heat pump system, and a shortened lifespan of the machine and parts. However, the steps to make sure yours runs perfect is really, really easy, and here's how you do it all.

If you own a newer Maytag Washing machine - the kind with an ultra large capacity using the "Direct Drive" motor underneath, it has some particular problems with noise issues, eventually leading to it not spinning out. In this video, I show you how to repair and replace the two most common issues with the machine - the clutch magnet assembly, and the slider system. The two main parts I used to solve the problem in this video: W10754448 Electromagnetic Clutch: https://bens-appliances.com/products/w10754448-electromagnetic-clutch-shift-assembly-for-whirlpool-or-maytag-washing-machines?_pos=1&_sid=d1e133e1e&_ss=r W10734521 Magnetic Slider Assembly: https://bens-appliances.com/products/w10734521-whirlpool-slider-assembly Hopefully this video helps you diagnose and repair your problems with this unit. Techs are finding this repair more and more common, as the slider assembly seems to go bad after 2-4 years of use, so just outside of the OEM warranty.

If you own a newer style Maytag Washing machine with the UI similar to this one, I will show you how to do a lot of different things in the secret Technician / Service Diagnostic Mode. Entering this mode will give you a powerful toolset to understand and diagnose your washing machine if it breaks, as well as how to recalibrate / reset it via the DLMS command. Note that this guide will work for similar-year Whirlpool machines as well, but the display orientation is vastly different. Still, the entry mode and choices are identical. All tests/modes were done on an MVW7232HW from 2021, and this style washing machine UI is still being produced as of the release of this video.

The most common comment I get at my shop is that their refrigerator just "needs a little freon" but far more often than not, it doesn't really need that. But how would you, as a home owner or tech determine this? Lets look at a few things to determine if you do in fact, just need a 'lil freon. Did this video help you out?

This is a very new style of lid lock in 2023 from Whirlpool, and also works on Maytag Washing machines like the Maytag Pet Pro Washing Machine. The lid lock is a newer style and disassembles differently than any other one on the market that I'm aware of, and no current videos exist of this repair. Need the lid lock? https://oemparts.bens-appliances.com/products/w11513248-whirlpool-lid-lock-rold-120v-journey-ul Additionally, taking the top of the washer lid off seems to be different and more fusterating than the older styles. I've heard from other techs that, potentially, a thin flat-blade screwdriver pushing up while trying the initial maneuver can help bend the latches to make this easier, but I wasn't able to do it in this video.

Samsung Refrigerators are the most notorious refrigerators on the US market - maybe the world. Despite their high prices, they've caused problems for techs and homeowners alike with problems involving the refrigerator cabinet. Sometimes it leaks water in the crisper drawers, other times it makes an awful noise. Other times it will ice up and not cool.

Often times, a bad washing machine hub can cause multiple issues such as your Whirlpool Washer will not agitate properly, or fails to spin out the water in the clothes properly, or even makes a grinding noise during agitation. All of these problems have a probable culprit of a bad hub underneath the wash plate. However, if the problem is severe, the gearcase splines will be damaged, causing a new hub to simply tear itself apart on the gearcase in a matter of weeks. The normal fix is replacing the transmission. However, older Whirlpool washing machines used an all-metal hub system that is vastly higher quality than the plastic hubs, and can essentially fix a washing machine that is wri Items used in video: All Metal Wash Hub: https://bens-appliances.com/products/w10324651-ba-whirlpool-all-metal-washing-machine-drum-mounting-hub (new aftermarket version, the OEM has sold out worldwide and there's no re-stock date known, anywhere).

In this video, we try using safety pins, or in my exact case, straight pins, to shore up the suspension rod system with very surprising results!

This is one of the stranger repairs that one can do on a refrigerator if it develops a rust spot on the back, which can cause all sorts of havoc like damaged floors, drywall, or a refirgerator not cooling because its basically turned itself inside-out. This one was a pretty small spot compared to most I've seen, but the solution does not change with size so the repair is a great demonstrator of what to do if you wanted to tackle it as a homeowner. Note that this fix should usually be done in tandem with the "Ice Maker Repair" and Frigidaire OEM repair kit. I am posting this video first, as I am waiting on finishing the Ice Maker repair at the time of the release of this video, and it takes a few days/weeks for YouTube to actually show this video to those interested in this oddball repair.

We've seen a hundred plus of these recent-model Whirlpool Refrigerators either over-cool and freeze food in the refrigerator cabinet, or stop cooling altogether. What are the symptoms, and how can you fix this? I tear apart two Whirlpool refrigerators to get to the matter at least somewhat and discuss what may be going on to cause the issues. Models that suffer these situations tend to be Whirlpool WRT31, WRT51, WRT53, and MRT1188 refrigerators with various additional numbers. Generally, the units will have "Athena" or "Hercules" control boards in them.

Whirlpool Top Freezer refrigerators with an electronic control board do have a nifty ittle system for diagnostics and a forced defrost mode. However, they can be painfully difficult to get into. In this video, I show you a sure-fire way to get your WRT318 or WRT518 refrigerator into diagnostics. This should work for ANY Whirlpool, Maytag, or Amana refrigerator that has this style UI/Cold Control System. You will learn how to perform a Whirlpool Forced Defrost setup on this, as well as the fail condition mode which can show some problems that can come up with with this style refrigerator.

What happens when you put something in the Microwave that your parents told you that you should not? I bought 8 things to test, which then expanded into a bit more than 8 for this initial round of testing to see what would happen. Some were shocking, some went OK without issue for the period of time we put them in the microwave. I don't suggest trying any of these things out, because clearly the microwave is in bad shape even after the very first test, but still worked.

A customer came in with a Samsung Washer that wouldn't spin the clothes out, leaving them wet. In this video, I show you how to determine the cause of the issue quickly and solve it by replacing the suspension rods in the washing machine. There are a few other ways that this machine could have the problem solved or troubleshooted if its not the rods that have gone bad. Replacement Rod Links (there are MANY STYLES) so measure your length, and see what matches, as OEM rods are WILDLY expensive. 26.65" Long (DC97-16350K): https://bens-appliances.com/products/dc97-16350k-samsung-washing-machine-suspension-rods-set-of-5 26.4" Long (DC97-16350U): https://bens-appliances.com/products/dc97-16350u-samsung-washing-machine-suspension-rods-set-of-4 Either of these replaces a huge number of rod models, so note the pages for the specifc part#s.

You always have to go buy a new appliance if yours breaks, but what if it still works but is old? I decided to take a few refrigerators from my store and test them for a week against each other to see how they all operate, and if it really would make finance sense to ever upgrade, including my Grandma's old 1950 General Electric refrigerator, which I put right beside a brand new, top of the line GE 28cf French Door refrigerator. It took a lot of time and work to make this video, and I used quite a few different things to show off these various refrigerators, and I hope you enjoy the video. How does your refrigerator compare to the ones in the test?

We had a GE Gas stove that just seemed like it probably wasn't going to work right. So we decided to do a quick test on the ignitor system to see if it works or not. If you own a basic multimeter, this quick and easy test will show you if the affordable ignitor is bad, or if you may have other, more expensive problems. Once we tested the GE oven ignitor and determined it was bad, I went ahead and replaced it to show you the difference before and after of what a good/bad system looks like to help you understand what to look for even if the ignitor seems to glow, but not fuel the system to heat your oven. The ignitor I used in the video: https://bens-appliances.com/products/gr403-barrel-style-gas-oven-igniter?_pos=3&_sid=6a25a0a51&_ss=r Other ignitors that are common universals for many, many styles of gas ranges in the USA: IG35 Universal w/ 12pc Mounting Kit: https://bens-appliances.com/products/universal-gas-stove-igniter-w-12pc-mounting-connector-system?_pos=4&_sid=6a25a0a51&_ss=r IG9998 Ignitor: https://bens-appliances.com/products/universal-gas-stove-igniter-ig9998?_pos=2&_sid=6a25a0a51&_ss=r WB13K10043: https://bens-appliances.com/products/wb13k10043-gas-oven-igniter?_pos=1&_sid=6a25a0a51&_ss=r Tools I use in all videos can be found at my Amazon Idea Page: https://www.amazon.com/shop/bensappliancesandjunk Did this video help you out?

A few months ago, a company offered me a refrigerator to test out and review. Rather than just take it out of the box and just review it without trying it, I sat it on my friends' deck for about 4 months with another, non-outdoor refrigerator beside it. I then review the refrigerator's basic functions. Its a very nice refrigerator for sure. The refrigerator (Amazon): https://amzn.to/3RTX2Lv **I did not get paid to do this video, but I did agree to create the video for IceJungle, and wanted to make good on my promise to review it after a reasonable amount of time passed, and the refirgerator held up to real-world conditions.** Tools I use in all videos can be found at my Amazon Idea Page: https://www.amazon.com/shop/bensappliancesandjunk Did this video help you out?

I got in a brand new Maytag Commercial Washer & Dryer Set at my store. Having talked about them before, I thought it'd be a great idea to rip them apart to see what really makes them different than the other Whirlpool / Maytag units I've made 30 or 40 videos on. However, in the process of filming & researching, I found out that this specific set is a huge scam due to the warranty that some stores don't include.

We've been looking for a way to remove mold from a washer door boot seal for a very long time. We've tried many alleged remedies and tried a new one, documenting it in the entire process. It worked extremely well, and here are the results for you to see. Note that the chemicals used in this are pretty strong, so take all precautions and ensure you do not let them stay in the washing machine for very long due to their caustic nature. As mentioned near the end, you can always remove the door boot seal prior to using the chemicals. However, since I wasn't sure this was going to work, I went ahead and tried the solution on the unit itself to great results. Here's a kit with pool shock, a brush, and washing machine cleaner: https://bit.ly/3CtiuSi The exact pool shock I used in the video (which was far too much): https://amzn.to/3KspoKK Tools I use in all videos can be found at my Amazon Idea Page: https://www.amazon.com/shop/bensappliancesandjunk Did this video help you out?

Who really makes your Washer or Dryer? The result may surprise you.

I am not as familiar with European brands and the inner workings of their manufacturers, so I would reserve an asterisk mark regarding all of the info I found out, just for safety sake.

There is a known defect with many modern GE Washing Machines like the one in the video. I want to show you the "Factory Fix" for this issue, but also go over a few other related common concerns for this style washing machine. The problem that's noted is that if the washer works and does drain water, but acts very strange when doing so, or when the washing machine spins the clothes at the end of the cycle, but does not fully spin the clothes out - both situations are hallmarks of this specific pressure port failure.

The teardowns didn't quite go the way I wanted them to, but hopefully, you get some ideas about the differences between these two systems.

Today's machine is a Whirlpool Washer. If yours doesn't want to spin during operation, let's go through quite a few ideas to test components and fix your washing machines' issues. In this video, you'll learn where to find your technician's manual, what the error codes mean, and which ones relate to the spin mode on this Whirlpool washing machine. I'll also show you how to force-test the spin and agitate modes to see if the machine really can spin, or if a part has truly failed.

I've been asked hundreds of times "What appliance should I buy if I want it to last longer than what I already have?" Well, here you go. I decided to discuss this if you'd like to take 20 minutes to get some ideas. DISCLAIMER: Everyone has different experiences with different brands and models. This list isn't exhaustive, nor perfect. I tried to list models that, in my OPINION are going to last longer than others, while not being unfathomably expensive like machines you'd only find at a laundromat that require hardmounts or really oddball requirements. Models mentioned or referenced in the video that I'd buy if I needed new appliances. I am having trouble linking to most Appliance Connection products, so here are links through AJ Madison: P.S. Cleaning your dryer vent and refrigerator condenser will increase your appliance's life span considerably!

Having a gas oven or gas stove that won't heat can cause a huge number of problems at home, but they tend to be really easy to work with, and the repairs usually are not that hard. Today, we got a Kenmore branded gas stove that won't heat in the oven, so I decided to test and fix it on camera. I go over the entire troubleshooting process of things to check to be comprehensive, and also give you some tips on the Frigidaire Oven Igniter replacement we used in the video, as the OEM version would have been way over $100. Oven igniter I used: https://bens-appliances.com/products/universal-gas-stove-igniter-ig9998 Similar Igniter + More Mounting Hardware: https://bens-appliances.com/products/gr403-barrel-style-gas-oven-igniter?_pos=3&_sid=7825be65d&_ss=r "Barrel Style" Igniter: https://bens-appliances.com/products/gr403-barrel-style-gas-oven-igniter?_pos=3&_sid=7825be65d&_ss=r Style w/o Metal Cover: https://bens-appliances.com/products/wb13k10043-gas-oven-igniter Note that this stove was Kenmore-brand, but was really a Frigidaire underneath. I may use the terms interchangeably in the video - most gas stoves are very similar however, and the tips will work for almost any brand.

If you need to convert your stove from natural gas to propane, its not too hard but is very daunting without knowing the exact steps. In this video, I install the needed parts to convert a Kenmore gas stove to propane / LP. This stove was actually built by Frigidaire, so it'll work for either brand, and most are generally the same. Hopefully the ideas in the video help you, and also give you extra ideas if incase the fix goes a little awry, as we had a few screw issues during the modification, too.

If you own an electric stove that won't heat, and you've tested everything else such as the heating element, thermostat, and know its getting power, the Frigidaire Control Board is a likely culprit. Typically, you'll hear the relay click, but without any heat applying to the stove as it consistently sounds every few seconds. So we decided to take the board apart and show you what a bad relay on the board looks like, and give a rough overview of how its fixed. Due to camera angles, the soldering isn't high quality, but hopefully this shows you what's involved in getting the board working again. Did this video help you out?

Is it possible to repair a washer control board? YES! You may be surprised at the cost of repairing an appliance control board like a refrigerator control board. I want to show you how to use an ESR meter on how to find bad capacitors on a control board. In the video, we test a Whirlpool Washer control Board, and a Samsung Refrigerator Inverter Board with the ESR Meter. This is an introductory video that shows why you'd want to buy an ESR meter.

If you own a Maytag Side by Side Refrigerator such as a MSS25N4MKZ, or a MSS25C4MGZ model refrigerator, then your refrigerator secretly has powerful Maytag refrigerator diagnostic codes, and error codes you can lookup to figure out whats wrong with your refrigerator. In this video, we cover TWO styles of Maytag Side by Side Refrigerators - those with in-door ice and water, and those without in-door ice and water. These codes also cover a few other brands as well, as long as it has a 5-button UI Interface. Please note, that the interface looks slightly different on this model, but the modes, error codes, and all systems are exactly the same.

This is a brand new Whirlpool wrs321sdhz side-by-side refrigerator with a display panel. I want to show you how to enter the hidden diagnostic system that allows you to test and report many components of your refrigerator, as well as modes such as the forced defrost mode. Later on in the video, I also have the diagnostic system for units without icemakers, including their Whirlpool refrigerator error codes using the interface inside the refrigerator cabinet, so this video covers all newer Whirlpool Side by Side refrigerators.

Garage Heater Kit link: https://bit.ly/2ZRC0Iu If you have a refrigerator in a garage that won't cool, then the typical answer is to install a Frigidaire 5303918301 Garage Heater Kit. However, this will cause the refrigerator to run constantly, which can burn out either the Garage Kit or the refrigerator compressor. The answer to this problem is to add-on an on/off rocker switch. This can be difficult, but in this video, I am showing you how to do it, and its super easy. This kit works the same way for a Garage Heater Kit in a Side by Side, as well as a Garage heater kit for a Whirlpool refrigerator. But be careful on the make/model as it only works with more basic refrigerators. The entire kit is a custom-assembled kit I sell online and to locals where I live in Ohio to fix this affordably. I would appreciate you considering buying the kit through my store. Video Timeline: 00:00 - Why you should install the heater kit and an on/off switch 01:11 - How to Remove the Cold Control System from Refrigerator 01:59 - How to Tell if You Can Install a Garage Heater Kit in Your Refrigerator 02:27 - How to Install the Garage Heater Kit and Rocker Switch System 04:07 - How to Use the Posi-Lock Wire Splicers to Install the Kit 06:41 - Re-Installing the Cold Control System to the Refrigerator Tools I use in all videos can be found at my Amazon Idea Page: https://www.amazon.com/shop/bensappliancesandjunk Did this video help you out?

I had a Samsung refrigerator in my shop that was making a noise from the fan which is a common problem, so I went ahead and tore it apart to diagnose it, and show you why it can be elusive if the panel gets frozen. I cover a few things in the video including: - Fixing a Samsung Refrigerator Noise - How to Force Defrost a Samsung Refrigerator - How to Fix a Samsung Refrigerator Evaporator Fan - How to replace Samsung Refrigerator Drain Tube Many of the solutions to this issue, typically aren't the fan - most possible issues are with the system behind the panel being frozen. There are a few possible items that could fix this, or solve the moisture issues, I referenced in the video.

One of the recent and common problems with newer high-end refrigerators with problems is having a KitchenAid Refrigerator that won't cool in the refrigerator cabinet, has water in the crisper drawers, or the KitchenAid Refrigerator makes noise. The same things can occur on a Whirlpool refrigerator - it won't cool in the refrigerator cabinet, or that the Whirlpool Refrigerator makes noise. Both are the same internally, so the proper fix is the same. Buy the W11033168 Fan Kit: https://oemparts.bens-appliances.com/products/refrigerator-evaporator-fan-motor-with-harness-wire The major part we are using to fix this is the W11033168 Fan, Thermistor and Thermostat Kit. It is an all-in-one system that replaces the failed or degraded components. There's also the chance that there's damage to the fan which we address in the video. We're also adding on a secret tip from Whirlpool near the end on doing a forced-defrost mode that'll really help the refrigerator improve its de-icing capabilities through the Whirlpool Basic Defrost Mode. Additionally, a major component of the fix is simply taking this type of refrigerator apart, which is a mess. 4 and 5-door units have a different system of teardown as far as the shelving goes. RepairClinic has a good video at: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZFeHzy2U2Cw Read the first comment by Scott Roper, though because he's correct that you can avoid a few issues by skipping to the crisper tray in the 4/5-door unit. Remember: If your refrigerator has dirty condenser coils, it could be failing to cool this KitchenAid refrigerator properly, costing you a lot of money as well as why the ice maker won't automatically operate - consider buying an appliance cleaning kit to prevent your appliance from an early failure.

Today, we're unraveling how to put a KitchenAid Refrigerator into diagnostic mode, and how to decipher some of the KitchenAid Refrigerator Error Codes, among other things. This is a newer-style interface, and you can use this same system and same codes to Troubleshoot a Whirlpool Refrigerator along with the same Whirlpool Refrigerator Error Codes and Troubleshooting. The number of tests and error codes on this system is incredibly deep, and its very useful if in case your KitchenAid refrigerator won't cool or has some other issue. I'll be honest: This video is boring unless you need to use the system, then its awesome. I struggled to find a good video on this when I had to tech these style machines at customer houses because the last tech didn't know what he was doing, and stole the tech sheet.

If you have a Maytag Refrigerator that won't display temperature or a Maytag Refrigerator Control Won't turn on, this is a simple video on how to take out, install and reprogram a Maytag Refrigerator control board. When you buy a new W10310240 control board, you'll likely get the PE0000 error code, or something similar that requires you to reprogram your refrigerator. We did this on an MFI2569VEM2 Maytag refrigerator, but this will work for a Whirlpool Gold control board, too.

This is a basic tutorial on how to replace a refrigerator door bin for a Frigidaire refrigerator. The bin we're replacing is the Frigidaire 240356402 door bin. I was asked by a company to shoot this video for their users to help them install it properly. The door bin likely works with other brands if the dimensions were the same.

It seems like that, eventually, your Samsung Refrigerator won't cool in the upper cabinet, or the Samsung refrigerator starts leaking water inside the cabinet. Or you'll even experience the dreaded Samsung refrigerator fan noise problem. All of these issues (and maybe another one or two) are all due to one problem: Your refrigerator has ice and frost build-up behind the upper evaporator panel. I made one video dealing with this problem, but the heater installation used a different type of splicing type that works great, but is a bit more difficult to work with (in my opinion!). This installation is quicker and easier.

GE Washing Machines have a pretty fantastic hidden diagnostic mode that will help you troubleshoot a huge range of issues like dealing with a GE Washer not spinning. In today's video, I want to show how easy it is to figure out how to get a GE washing machine into diagnostics. Doing this can make GE washing machine repair much easier than guessing on what's going on, as you can initiate parts tests directly from the controls without opening anything up. This diagnostic system is exclusively for the GE washer top load machines, and wouldn't working a GE frontload washing machine.

Since I run a used appliance store, we had to learn how to clean a glass top stove a long time ago. It isn't hard to deal with a glass stove top, but I figured it'd be a great idea to film one of the ways we clean them. Initially, I wanted to film multiple styles, but hadn't found a stove this nasty since I filmed this, so I decided how to show you how to do it and how to clean burnt stove top gunk and junk with a razor knife.

A huge problem that you could experience is your GE refrigerator leaking water on the floor. This trick works for most refrigerators leaking water inside the cabinet, as its usually caused by an ice build-up or obstruction in the drain line. If you suspect that your GE refrigerator is leaking from the bottom, then this video will help you. In the video, I show you how to remove the evaporator panel cover on a GE refrigerator, what parts you're likely to see such as the evaporator coils and defrost heater, then show you how to clean a refrigerator drain line out. This is a cheap, easy fix that can save you a HUGE amount of money on a service call, and save a lot of headaches for the cost of some plastic hose and a soda bottle.

If you have a refrigerator that won't work in garage, its likely not designed for that. However, there is a thing such as a Universal Garage Heater Kit, although its branded as a Frigidaire Garage Heater Kit. This installation will work as a Whirlpool Garage Heater Kit and Kenmore Garage Heater Kit too, just make sure that you have a manual cold control switch prior to purchasing/installation. Hopefully by watching this video, you'll fully understand how to install a Frigidaire Garage Heater Kit, and then the option I went with to improve the design with the rocker switch.

When you do appliance repair, many times you will want to test a certain part away from the appliance, like to learn how to test a washer drain pump, or test a refrigerator heater. Learning how to build a cheater cord, or tester cord, or component tester is a great, cheap, easy way to do this. I was working on another video and wanted to test the component away from an appliance to see how it worked (the blue heater) which is why I decided to make this video. I'll likely reference a few things in this video in the future, just in case you need to test a particular appliance part in the future. These are easy and cheap to build, so I have a few of these at my shop, and the on/off switch makes it more practical to do as well. 3 Pack of Lamp Cords + On Off: https://amzn.to/3qYihi7 Spade Connector Pack (higher quality, fewer pcs): https://amzn.to/3j26GMb Tools I use in all videos can be found at my Amazon Idea Page: https://www.amazon.com/shop/bensappliancesandjunk You can buy appliance parts w/ a great warranty at: https://bit.ly/3pVxWyX Did this video help you out?

If you have a Whirlpool oven that won't heat, then this video is made to give you a few major ideas on how to diagnose and fix an oven not heating. We inspect & test a Whirlpool oven element, deal with an oven control board, and a few other things that could cause you to have a Whirlpool oven not working - along with ways to rule out a lot of different things. Although this video is a guide for a Whirlpool Electric Oven, the same steps are going to be the same for practically every major brand on the market, and both coil top stoves and glass-top stoves. This video is not a good guide for gas stoves.

If you own a Whirlpool Cabrio Washer that won't start or a Cabrio washer that won't turn on, there is a sadly common problem that is extremely costly to repair by replacing the Cabrio Washer interface board. However, there's a very quick and affordable fix to solve this issue. The problem occurs that will cause the Whirlpool Cabrio Washer won't start and just beeps among other things - again, all caused by the interface board. In this video, we go through a quick confirmation via the Cabrio Washer Error Code system to show some other possible codes, but are primarily concerned with the Cabrio F6E2 Error code, if a code comes up at all. Link for MG Chemicals Conformal Coating Repair Kit: https://bit.ly/3DrMHjs - Includes everything to fix the issue + coat board to ensure it lasts forever. I did a similar video for the Maytag Bravos XL Washer that had the same issue - both systems are extremely similar. I did this companion video showing how to take apart the interface further for a better cleaning, so the video is slightly different. If sadly this repair doesn't work and you confirmed there was damage to the interface, you'll have to purchase a new board.

Today, we had to replace a GE Washer agitator which meant that we had to take it out, which isn't easy to do on these newer-style washers. No one else has (seemingly) done a video, so I thought we'd do that when we got the new GE Washer Auger from Appliance Parts Pros. All you need to do a GE Agitator Repair is a screwdriver, and the new agitator itself. The big problem with this is that you MUST remove the agitator if you want to do anything involving the GE Washer Hub, or a GE Washer Tub, or GE Wash Plate - the screw keeping everything in place is hidden under the agitator which is a major problem. This video only involves the agitator / auger itself, not the hub. However, those are almost self-explanitory, and the big issue is what's shown in the video. I hope this helps you with your GE washer, as it was a real pain to figure this one out, as all newer style GE's have this issue which isn't really discussed much how to solve.

Do you have a GE Refrigerator that won't cool at all, or just isn't getting cool enough? Many times, people think they need to figure out how to add freon to a refrigerator, but many times, its a fix that a regular person can do, or at least troubleshoot themselves easily enough. In this video, I want to show you some GE Refrigerator troubleshooting - what GE Refrigerator parts to look for that could cause the unit to not work as its intended. On this one, we find out pretty darn fast why it won't work! But I went ahead and went over other major parts we find that are responsible for causing a refrigerator like this to not work properly. The goal of this video is to show you why a GE refrigerator won't cool, and the main, easy-to-fix culprits of why a GE fridge won't cool. A few things we cover in the video: - How to clean a refrigerator - How to check a refrigerator compressor relay - How to Repair a GE refrigerator defroster system - Addressing a GE Refrigerator Not Cooling Link to the common GE defrost heater for a side-by-side refrigerator: https://bens-appliances.com/collections/ge-refrigerators/products/ge-refrigerator-defrost-heater-wr51x10055 Use the code "youtube" and get an extra 5% off of anything at this link! Remember: If your refrigerator has dirty condenser coils, it could be failing to cool this GE refrigerator properly, costing you a lot of money as well as why the ice maker won't automatically operate right - consider buying an appliance cleaning kit to prevent your appliance from an early failure.

If you have a Kenmore Washer that has problems like it won't spin, this video is to help you "Open Up" the washer and put this washer into diagnostic mode. These style washers (made from 2009 to 2016 and still today with other brands) have a powerful error code mode that will show you how to solve stuff like your Kenmore Washer won't spin - or at least isolate why that's an issue. Using these systems should help you pin down why a Kenmore Washer won't spin, or other issues like a Kenmore washer won't drain. These steps can be done on many other styles of VMW washers (which all have the green oval lights and go under brand names like Maytag, Kenmore, Amana, Roper, Whirlpool, Inglis, Admiral and others). In this video, we're showing you the 4 primary mode of the Kenmore Washer Diagnostic system: - Error Code modes to help isolate why a Kenmore Washer's Not Spinning or your Kenmore Washer Not Draining - Automatic Test Mode to test all Kenmore Washer Parts & Components - Manual Test Mode (IMPORTANT!) to test all Kenmore Washer Parts individually - Kenmore Washer Recalibration and Kenmore Washer Reset - this mode is NEEDED when you install a new Kenmore Washer Part! My hope is this video helps you to identify what's going on with the washer. This doesn't show you how to install parts, buy parts, or diagnose the part via multimeter, but at least points you in the right direction. I plan on doing future videos on this.

I buy used appliances for my store all the time. Once in awhile, we'll hear a lot of rattling around. This time, the person I bought the dryer from said they thought there was a significant amount in this one, so I decided to grab my camera and see what would happen. The video was shot with no knowledge of what would be in the dryer, and I think all the dirt/dust/lint on the inside would show that.

It seems there is a rash of issues with both Maytag Bravos Washer's that won't start as well as the similar Cabrio Washer won't start issues. On either system, the interface either will "Hang" and not start any commands, or the Maytag Bravos XL Won't turn on, meaning the washer buttons don't work on washer. Both of these situations have to deal with a woefully inadequate interface that will short out. Since releasing this video, the price of the coating has nearly doubled. I found a supplier to help me out, and we now have a kit with all the items you need to fix the problem, and coat the board as shown with the exact same coating for much less: https://bens-appliances.com/products/whirlpool-cabrio-maytag-bravos-interface-repair-kit Fortunately, it's possible to repair them, as well as improve the design that Whirlpool whiffed on. In this video, we're doing to deal with the following problems: - Maytag Bravos Won't Start - Cabrio Washer Screen Reset - Cabrio Washer Won't Start - Maytag Bravos Won't Turn On - Maytag Bravos Stuck on Sensing - How to Replace Maytag Bravos Interface - How to Fix a Maytag Bravos Interface - Maytag Bravos XL Troubleshooting Among other things. All the issues center around refurbishing the interface. In the video, we thought the interface was toast, but it wasn't.

One of the most often asked questions at my shop is if you can lay a refrigerator on its side for transport. Usually, its because they have a minivan or hatchback or some other small vehicle. You can do it, but there are some caveats to doing it, so lets learn about it all today! In this video, you'll learn a little bit about what laying a refrigerator on its side does, including hacking up a refrigerator compressor, and other guts of a refrigerator to get a little idea of what's going on inside, and how to "Fix" or deal with that problem.

If your Samsung Refrigerator has an interface similar to this one, there's a secret Forced Defrost mode that will heat up the Ice Maker cabinet, allowing you to remove it very, very easily.

How much electricity does your older top load washing machine use? In this video, I had to run a load of clothes and cloth masks for another video. I decided then to hook this basic top load washing machine up to an electric meter to see how many watts does a washing machine use. The numbers actually shocked me, because I have done a similar video with a "High-Efficiency" washing machine. Are newer HE washers really that much better on electric than old machines?

If your Samsung Bottom Door Freezer Refrigerator has developed a water leaking problem where water gets into the crisper drawers, then this video is the ultimate fix for you. Additionally, if your refrigerator cover gets frozen in ice and you can't figure out how to remove it, this video will show you the fix. Both of these problems are related to each other, and you likely want to fix both problems at the same time in one big fix. This problem of the Samsung Refrigerator freezing up is a VERY common problem that really hasn't had a *GOOD* fix until recently. The kit used in video: https://bens-appliances.com/collections/all/products/refrigerator-secondary-heater-kit *DISCLAIMER*: This video involves splicing electric lines into your refrigerator. Make sure the electricity is turned off on the fridge when dealing with electricity, such as installing/splicing the secondary heater in. You'll need to turn it on to run the forced defrost mode, however, which is safe to do with the evaporator panel moved to the side (but plugged in for fan/ect) The goal of this video is to: * Fix Samsung a Refrigerator that has Ice on the Evaporator Panel * Fix Samsung a Refrigerator that has Ice on the Evaporator Coils * Fix Samsung a Refrigerator with Ice Ball on Evaporator Fan * Fix Samsung a Refrigerator that Leaks Water into Drawers Many people have thrown away their refrigerators or had to have technicians come to attempt to fix the problem multiple times with usually rocky results. If you do both installations together, you should correct just about any problem relating to your Samsung Refrigerator leaking water into drawers, as well as the ice build upon in the refrigerator. At the end of this video, you will have successfully understand how to install a Samsung Drain Kit into your refrigerator (how to install #da82-01415a) as well as how to install a heater into your Samsung refrigerator. How to force your Samsung Refrigerator into Defrost Mode: https://youtu.be/8QE1L8iA598 Update: Since making this video, I've seen a lot of people use this fix, successfully buying all the items mentioned below. I found a company that build me a custom-made heater for these refrigerators, so viewers didn't have to spend the $80-100 that Amazon is now charging for everything (the heater, the drain kit, the ties, and drain kit). I've packaged the heater with ties and connectors for sale at this link: https://bens-appliances.com/collections/all/products/refrigerator-secondary-heater-kit If you use the code "YOUTUBEKIT", it takes an extra 10% off the order, and basically contains all the Amazon parts below except for the drain tubes (which will be available soon).

If you have a Samsung refrigerator with an interface panel similar to this one and are having error codes pop up on the screen, or having other troubles with the refrigerator, I hope this video helps you to restore your fridge to good-working order. This video is part 1 of 2 involving the Samsung French-Door refrigerator, and some issues you have with it. I decided to publish this video first, as the other is much longer and comprehensive, and you need this video to understand/run modes for the other video. Part 2: How to fix your Samsung Refrigerator getting Water in drawers and icing up on evaporator panel: https://youtu.be/So1Zf-yIj94 This video helps you fix the 14-E Error Code lockout (a common Icemaker fault), as well as fix Samsung OF code, among others. Both errors lock you out of using your fridge, so they are insanely aggravating. Other codes are addressed such as the Samsung Refrigerator 2E code, Samsung Refrigerator 4E code, and many others. Additionally, the forced defrost mode can help you defrost the Samsung icemaker. Many Samsung icemakers need defrosted to actually open up - I wish I had included this bit of info in the video itself - I'll try to get that on another video when I get another Samsung in. Remember: If your refrigerator has dirty condenser coils, it could be failing to cool this Samsung refrigerator properly, costing you a lot of money as well as why the ice maker won't automatically operate - consider buying an appliance cleaning kit to prevent your appliance from an early failure.

After a few years of using your topload washer, the suspension rods are bound to start going bad, resulting in your washer walking across the floor, or making an awful noise in spin mode. In this video, we replace an Amana Top-Load Washer's Rods to sovle the problem. This fix is the exact same for Whirlpool, Roper, and Maytag machines too also under the Bravos and Cabrio model types, too. We're using the W10189077 / W10820048 kit for the job.

Since March, its been nearly impossible to purchase a brand new deep freezer - upright or otherwise. So if you had to - how could you convert a regular refrigerator into an upright freezer? This video should help explain the process for a TOP MOUNT FREEZER. I cannot advise if this would be appropriate for a side by side, as many have a refrigerant line in between the doors to act as a mullion heater (aka Yoder Loop). You would need to check your schematics for that style fridge to ensure you know where the refrigerant lines are in the liner before drilling additional air vents. In this video, you'll learn how to turn a refrigerator into a deep freeze, and how you can exactly do that. It also answers the question of can you turn a refrigerator into a freezer - you'll see how we did it, to give yourself ideas to make a deep freezer at home.

I made this video for Investment Joy's channel in early/mid January 2020. I decided to re-host the video on my channel, too, since the content was interesting. The audio isn't the best, as this was an early video I made myself (and that's not saying I'm a lot better now, but I digress). Fixing one machine at a time is one skill, but what happens when you may have to look at 10 or 20 machines at once? Are repairs more expensive for these longer-lasting machines? Is it difficult to repair these machines vs. traditional machines?

Many newer-style dryers from Whirlpool (who also makes them for Maytag, Kenmore, and possibly Amana too) disassemble much differently than their older style console-top dryers. If the unit does not heat, taking them apart isn't too terrible to do, but there are a few things you want to look out for on this style dryer to troubleshoot to see what's going on. One of the MOST IMPORTANT things you can do when troubleshooting is buying a decent multimeter - even the cheapest one out there will tell you if the part works or not (but a good one makes it more accurate and easier).

Someone gave me a Samsung WA40J3000WA washing machine that wouldn't spin. Figuring out why It wouldn't do that wasn't easy, but not the hardest, either. These types of machines seem to have the problem often, but putting it in Error Code mode / Diagnostics is SUPER EASY and the system is pretty robust on telling you exactly what's going on. The first half of the video shows how to deal with error codes. The second half is the actual fix, because I haven't seen a lot of videos explaining how to deal with the TMR Code, as well as the TMR Sensor itself, which was the issue on our washer.

I haven't done a new YouTube video for my appliance channel in a few weeks, and there's (sadly) a good reason for it: We got hit with a flood, and the building beside us got hit hard, too. I wasn't able to record every step of the process due to how hectic the situation was, but I hope you can get some encouragement and a few ideas through this video. I used two major tools to help take apart/clean appliances that, if you need tools, may be helpful to pick up (regardless of a flood situation or not!)

This video is a quick tutorial to get your dryer back up and running if it simply won't start. The Thermal Fuse is a VERY common component to go bad that causes many-a-dryer to die for no apparent reason. Many times, its caused by another component failing OR too much lint in the dryer. Make sure that you inspect your dryer's vent (both inside the machine and in the wall where the heat and lint is pushed to) to ensure that it won't happen again!

If your dryer no longer heats, you may need to replace the sensors and/or heating element on the unit. Some companies offer a full-replacement kit to basically rebuild EVERYTHING in your dryer. Since all the components are on the back of many Whirlpool, Kenmore, Amana or Maytag Dryers, this video shows how to install it all in one go. With this video, you'll learn how to replace a heating element on a dryer to fix your Roper Dryer not heating, to solve the fact that your Roper dryer won't dry clothes.

Samsung Washer & Dryers are now America's most popular laundry system. However, any tech will tell you that the dryers like to fail with issues like they won't run or heat. Fortunately, the repairs are pretty cheap, but require a bit of know-how and a few parts. I hope this video explains in a reasonable way how to diagnose and fix most common issues with a Samsung console-top dryer. For frontload dryers, the course of tests and events is going to be extremely similar other than how to remove the interface/front from a frontload dryer. 2-Wire Design: https://bens-appliances.com/collections/all/products/samsung-dryer-element-housing-and-sensors-dc97-14486a 3-Wire Design: https://bens-appliances.com/collections/all/products/samsung-3-wire-dryer-element-housing-and-sensors-dc93-00154a Heating Element & Sensor Kit Link: https://bens-appliances.com/collections/all/products/samsung-dryer-heating-element-system 3-Wire Heating Element & Kit: https://bens-appliances.com/collections/all/products/samsung-3-wire-dryer-element-dc47-00032a Use code "YOUTUBE" for a 5% discount on all these items!

Make sure to unplug the dryer before servicing! Samsung Dryers are notorious for failing to start due to the idler pulley blowing up and, many times, taking the belt with it. How can you take apart a Samsung Dryer to get it up and running again? Follow along so you'll learn to fix a Samsung Dryer that won't start. This fix may also solve an issue if your Samsung Dryer won't heat. Interestingly enough, the Samsung dryer pulley and the Samsung heating element are linked. Additionally, this video works for LG and Kenmore Elite dryers that look similar to this one... I had to work on a few after this video and realized taking them apart is done literally the same. exact. way. Although MAKE SURE you do a proper part-lookup to verify that you have the right components for them (but again, the installations are pretty much the same).

If you have a Inglis, Whirlpool, Amana, Roper, or similar dryer that has a lint screen on the top-right corner of the dryer, this video will help you take the entire unit apart to replace the belt. Its the same steps for the roller wheels too, or motor. Hopefully, this helps you know what you're getting into when replacing the belt! To work on these types of a Whirlpool dryer that won't start, you only really need a screwdriver. This may be one of or THE easiest appliances to take apart. Its a great skill to know, and most common belts are less than $10. Once you've learned to do this, you'll be able to clean your dryer and gain confidence and skills on fixing your appliance yourself!

Removing these washplates can be really, really hard. I had to remove 4 this week, and decided to film taking out the 5th one. This one went easier than others, but the same technique has worked every time for me but making the right part selection(s) to do it... Not so much. Removing the washplate like this works for many brands that have the similar metal & plastic washplate. Samsung, LG, GE, Kenmore are just a few of the brands I've seen this be a problem for. I hope this helps you!

A customer paid my appliance business a large sum of one-dollar bills so I did the only thing a responsible person would do during the Coronavirus pandemic: Wash & dry the bills. What happens when you just throw about 125 bills in a washing machine? In this video, we find out what happens when you put money in a washing machine. Also, since its wet, we answer the question: Can you put money in a dryer? This video contains a quickly fast-forwarded part of the wash of the money. If you'd want to watch the whole thing to see what happens, here's the video link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NbKlMuhFtLc This video is meant for instructional purposes only.

I uploaded this previously, only to find out that the ending of spin cycle wasn't there. This video fixed the issue, and I added a little bit of me putting money in a tote to show the condition of the bills at the end. I got paid $125 in one-dollar bills for a stove in my shop. I decided to clean them using a washer and dryer. I have another video in the works of explaining why I did this and what happens if you put the bills in a dryer. This is a full-timed view of the washing machine running through an entire cycle with the bills in it.

How efficient is a newer washing machine? In this video, I hooked up water meters, a wattage meter, and then weighed the clothes involved in the washer test. How much water and electric does this unit use? Watch it in real time as the live watt meter shows what agitation, spin, and drain use at various parts of the wash cycle. Also notice how good (or bad!) the wash plate is in handling large, bulky items like comforters!

To view the original video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bvvl44T6I4g I tried to be as transparent as possible regarding profit(s) on this fridge.

If you replaced a part on your Whirlpool, Maytag or Amana Washer, you need to run a calibration cycle on the unit. But while you're in the "Secret" diagnostics mode, there are a lot of extra, hidden features you may not know about. You can test components as well to see if a part is going bad. But to do that, you need to bypass the lid lock to see inside! This video will show you how to do all of this. Timestamps for each thing are included in the video. In this video, you should learn how to: - Enter diagnostics to do a lot of important features - Check Whirlpool Washer Error Codes - Do a Whirlpool Washer Re-Calibration - Test Each Part and Cycle in the Whirlpool Washer Troubleshooting mode(s) - Bypass the Lid Lock (kind-of) to watch the drum move and operate to verify it works P.S. These commands generally work on any Whirlpool-made device including Whirlpool, Kenmore, Amana, Roper, Admiral, Maytag and probably a few others (but not GE or Hotpoint!)

If your dryer sounds like its running, but your clothes won't get dry quickly (takes 2+ loads) or at all, here are some things you can look at to see if its an easy fix. You only need 3 parts to fix most common dryers and save yourself some big money. The main things we are dealing with in this video include: - Amana Dryer Heating Element - Amana Dryer Not Heating - Amana Dryer Thermal Fuse - Amana Dryer No Heat Although this video focuses mainly on one style of electric (220v) dryer, the concepts are the same for many brands and models.

Finding parts that sell for money on a used, broken appliance is very time-consuming. Sometimes, a basic overlooked part can be worth quite a bit of money. In this video, I tear down a basic Frigidaire refrigerator and find hundreds upon hundreds of dollars in parts. But does that value mean anything? This video is the first of a 3-part series on using AI and automation to recycle appliances quicker, easier, and for more money. Part 2 will be the results of this specific teardown - how much money the parts sold for, how much profit was involved, and all of that for this specific fridge. Part 3 will be an overall look if this system was really worth it over all the appliances we tear down and scrap, as we scrap a ton every week and it'll show if it was really worth making the system from cash on cash perspective.

If you have a Whirlpool-style topload washer and bought a new lidlock for it, chances are it doesn't install the same way many videos describe - there's no screws to take out or put in. Even worse, if you figure out how to install the lock correctly, the striker may not go down into the new latch, preventing the machine from running at all. In this video, both the installation and striker issue are addressed. I hope this video helps you!

If you've purchased a Whirlpool topload washing machine in the past 10 years, it features a way to figure out what may be wrong with your washing machine. However, its not easy to understand how to get the machine into the troubleshooting/diagnostic mode, OR understand how the code readout works. In this video, I'll show you how to put the machine into the mode AND on-screen explanations as to how to read the codes. Also, I've included Whirlpool's official code list so you know exactly what the machine is saying as well. This video works for Whirlpool, Maytag, Amana, Admiral (What I use in the video), Roper and a few other styles. THIS DOES NOT WORK FOR A GE WASHER which has a similar display.

When a refrigerator won't cool, how much can be salvaged from its dead husk? I decided to pull this entire unit apart (save the bottom door which had stripped screws in) and total up what the value was on Ebay with... Surprising results. I only totaled up parts that were worth over $15 shipped so it wouldn't be a huge load of small-value items. Also, I only priced parts that have actually sold recently on The Bay.

Got a dryer that won't heat and you think the timer is bad? Why not try to fix it for a few pennies? Its a long video, but it shows you everything start to finish on figuring out if the timer is really bad, and how to fix it. Works for Whirlpool, Kenmore, Amana, Estate, Roper, and many other sub-brands. The fix works for the following (but not limited to) part #s: W10186032 Dryer Timer W10185972 Dryer Timer W10185988 Dryer Timer W10185970 Dryer Timer W10642928 Dryer Timer W10185976 Dryer Timer ...and many others that look similar! This fix may not always work, but I've found it to work rather well, and should get you a few more months if not more before it inevitably dies. Newer revisions of these timers seem to be longer lasting. If you need to order one, Appliance Parts Pros' has a good model checker to ensure you get the exact timer, as many of these types need the exact-matched number, despite many looking similar.
