Maintenance kit for Whirlpool / Kenmore dryers with the lint filter in the door

Tuesday, February 15th, 2011

Okay, boys and girls, last time on the Freaky Uncle Samurai Show , I told y’all about a nifty maintenance kit for Whirlpool-Kenmore dryers with the lint filter in the top panel. But Whirlpool makes another style of dryer with the lint filter in the front panel where you pen the door. This is the so-called DOTT dryer which stands for the “dryer of tomorrow, today.” No chit, boys and girls, that’s really what they call it

Testing the Touchpad and Control Panel on a Maytag Neptune FAV6800/9800 Washer

Friday, January 21st, 2011

Some example indications that the touchpad and control panel on your Maytag FAV6800 or FAV9800 washer may be flakey are: 1) When the panel powers up it automatically defaults to colors/jeans mode, no matter what it had been on previously. 2) The indicator lights for Superwash, Whites, and Spin are always dimly lit. 3) Normal and Superwash cannot be selected; the panel beeps multiple times when you push these buttons instead of the single beep

Troubleshooting a Whirlpool DSI gas range: no bake, no broil, no spark; replaced DSI board, no change

Tuesday, December 7th, 2010

I’ve posted several troubleshooting tips in the past on Whirlpool’s finicky and temperamental Direct Spark Ignition (DSI) gas range (see this page ). This one is a special case no-ignition case where you’ve ruled out the other possible causes that I’ve posted about previously and even replaced the DSI spark board in a desperate but blind attempt to solve the problem. Wellll, you just grab o’ them squishy lumps below your spine and come romp with with the Samurai on another DSI range repair adventure! First thing, check for 120vac coming out of the ERC (the electronic range control, aka “clock”) and into the new DSI board at the Bake J1-6 or Broil J1-7 harness connectors
