the spring in my Bosch soap dispenser is broken. Can I just replace this spring or will I need to replace the entire dispenser. I cannot seem to get the spring in the door and then close it.
Depending on what exactly is broken on the dispenser, you may just need the detergent cup latch and spring kit:

Or you may need to replace the whole dispenser:

Hi, Our Kenmore stove oven has delayed ignition i.e. we turn it on and perhaps 2 or 3 minutes later there’s a loud boom as the gas ignites and a smell of gas. What should we do? Thank you Kevin

I have a tappan model 30-3989-23 stove. When I turn the oven on and set the temp I hear the top console click like normal and the display shows it as being on, but the oven does not heat up.
The burners and top broiler works fine. In fact if I turn on the oven after using the broiler the oven temp does show that it has gone up. But the temp slowly goes down as the oven still does not work.
Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

I have a 9 year old whirlpool side by side fridge (mod #GC5SHGXKB00) that has developed a drip at the water dispenser. I thought maybe the inlet valve was stuck, so I put on a new one and it still drips. Any ideas?
Thanks
It’s common for air to get in the line from any number of ways. As this air warms up, it expands and pushes on the water. That pressurized water will go to the path of least resistance: out the dispenser spout. So, if this is what’s going on, then the cure is to purge the air from the system. And the easiest way to do that is to run at least three gallons water out the dispenser.
PS: Heard back from Chris and this fixed his problem.

Not a bad job. The one good thing about this washer is that it’s pretty easy to work on. Which is a real plus because you’ll be working on it a lot. Come grok on this illustrated and annotated teardown guide:

I have a Maytag PYE2200AYW electric dryer. We had problems a few weeks ago and discovered that the blower wheel was cracked, so we replaced it (part # 31001317). Then a couple days later it just stops and won’t turn back on until it cools off. We figured it was the Thermostat and /or high limit fuse, so we replaced both of those (part # LA-1053). Thought all was well and tried a load of towels. It ran for about 20 minutes and then shut off again. Now it won’t turn back on even after it has cooled. The vents are clear, and we can’t figure out what it causing it to shut off.
Please Help!
The motor has an internal thermal overload protector that’s tripping. It does this when the motor overheats. The motor overheats because it’s either drawing too much current or it’s blanketed in a layer of lint, which acts as insulation.
There’s a lot more to a proper dryer vent than just being clear. Start by checking your dryer vent in accordance with the scriptures on this page:
Appliance Tip of the Day: The Ultimate Dryer Venting Guide
Next step is to disassemble the dryer and vacuum the lint off the motor. If you need help disassembling your dryer, we can give you specific instructions in the Samurai School of Appliantology, just start a new topic in The Laundry Appliance Repair Forum.
If neither correcting the vent or cleaning the motor does the trick, then it means the motor itself is drawing too much current and overheating. You’ll need to replace the motor:
