I’ve notice that on the top shelf of my somewhat older model fridge, the water and milk every now and then freeze a bit. It will happen regularly for a week, then not at all for a few weeks, then start up again. I’m not changing any of the settings on the fridge or freezer. Your thoughts, Samurai?

My dishwasher will not turn off. I think it is in a constant drain mode though I am not sure. I tried your test for another, similar model by holding down the power’scrub and delicate buttons simultaneously, turning on and then releasing buttons. Those lights flashed and when those buttons were then pushed, the regular wash light went on.

Hi John,
It’s probably not very helpful or useful to use a disassembly video for another washer brand and try to apply it to your Bosch washer. It’s the little details in disassembly that can git ya.
We don’t have a disassembly video for the Bosch washer yet. But the service manual is excellent and that we do have in the Downloads section of the Appliantology Academy ==> http://appliantology.org/files/file/72-bosch-wfmc-front-load-washer-training-manual-1st-edition/
You’ll need to be an Apprentice in the Academy to download the manual; come snatch this pebble from my hand ==> http://apprentice.appliantology.org/

Also sold with the Kenmore label on them. This is good ol’ washer that they’re not making anymore. But they are still making parts for it. If you have one, hang on to it as long as you can!
Here’s the part link to the clutch assembly ==> http://www.repairclinic.com/PartDetail/Clutch-Assembly/285785/2670
And here’s how to install it:
This dryer is a step down from the original design that had the lint filter in the top panel– not nearly as rugged or durable as it’s older brother. But still lots of these dryers out there. Here’s how to take ’em apart when you inevitably have to work on them:

We have replaced the ice maker. Tried tapeing to insulate the tube for the water, and it still will not make ice. Tube keeps freezing in freezer. We have also turned down the freezer. I have to keep mopping water up in front of the frig too, because, my husband says he thinks thats from the insde hose being blown off when it freezes up. We need to know why it freezes. Thank yo so much, Vicki

The ignitor and gas safety valve are the two key workhorse components in a gas oven or range. They’re also the two most common fail items that will stop an oven from working; ignitor is number one, safety valve is number two. These two videos show you how to test each one to determine if they’re bad. You can buy the replacement parts right here with a 365-day return policy– just enter your model number in the pretty orange parts search box at the top of the page.

I would like to get a copy but it’s not found on appliantology board. I have a GE Refridgerator with a problem. I want to see if the model # is on this list.

Greetings Roger,
Another pilgrim seeks the mythical and fabled list of refrigerator model numbers included in GE’s muthaboard concession (or “motherboard” for those of you who are humor-impaired).

In fact, the information you seek is in this post at my Appliantology blog:
