Dishwasher Repair / Re: MAYTAG Dishwasher Quiet Series 300, some buttons work, others not (MDB5601AWW)

Do the consumers ever get something that amounts to anything in such class auctions or do just the lawyers make out in the end?

After participating in a few such class actions over the years and receiving checks in the mail from them for just a few bucks I don't bother with them any more. Seems they just get you all pumped up over nothing. At least that has been my experiance.

I went to check out a maytag that wasn't cooling the FF Side. I know the defrost control boards go bad a lot in these. So I tested for continuity in the element and thermostat and got continuity I too off the control board and noticed it was a little dark around two of the resistors on the bottom right side of the board ( if the wire terminal is the top) . So I called the control board. I understand that there is a new board for this model? The model number is MSD2756AE. What's your opinion?


Pic 1 is the kind of board in there now.
Pic two is suppose to be the replacement.

Dishwasher Repair / GE draining issue.

« Last post by Rick32k on May 17, 2013, 10:10:47 AM »

 I'm working on a GE dishwasher MOD:GDWT260R10SS, and the problem with it is that it wasn't draining correctly. It's getting 120V to the drain pump, and the drain hose isn't clogged. Also it's pumping some water just not enough you have to run the drain cycle about three times for it to drain out. the drain pump is rated for 30 OHMS but when I checked it it only had 25 OHMS. So I called the drain pump. I was wondering what you thought about that.i worked on a few maytag washers where the pump was pumping, but it was really slow and it didn't have enough volume or velocity.so I'm thinking its the same thing.

Refrigerator & Freezer Repair / Re: Electrolux EW23BC71IS0

You might call Electrolux,What happens is your evap that has ref lines that run to the fingers has a restriction in it. Ices up wont make ice then thaws and water runs out the ice door . There sealed system is warranted for 5 years,and that evap comes as a separate part,they however are smart enough to not put a torch in that little space.
