Kenmore Elite washer FL error

I have the Kenmore Elite washer. I had the pump replaced 4 months ago and now have the flashing FL error. The washer won't drain and will not go through the rest of the cycle. Does anyone know how to get the water out from the back (a suggestion I saw on another site, though not very specific) and how to go about changing the pump. When the guy was here before, he seemed to do the work in the bottom of the washer. I'm trying to save myself another $200.

Electric dryer wont start

N

nando1326 on Apr 09, 2005

I recently bought a Operating T-stat, hi-limit T-stat and cutoff kit to repair heating problems my Whirlpool dryer (2k) was having. I turned on the dryer w/o the ductwork and everything seemed to work ok. I shut down and was about to put everything back in place when in all my wisdom I tried to take out some lint stuck behind the screw of the OP t-stat. I used a screwdriver and the dryer did not like that :wall: Sparks flew. I had forgotten to unplug the dryer before committing this stupid act. Continuity checks on all fuses and T-stat were fine I plugged the dryer checked the closed the door and it did not start. I checked the outside circuit breaker and turned it on and off. I did a voltage check on the outlet but did not receive a measurement (stuck it in as far as possible. The probes I have are small but sufficient in measuring regular outlets. (am I measuring wrong?) It is a 4 prong outlet and I know the 220-110 combos I should be getting. I dont know how to fix this. It is a new house so they could do it. I am trying to do this for my parents and I leave in four days so please help me out.Read More

Maytag motor

My Maytag motor kicks outs when it goes into the wash cycle, does this everytime, runs in the spin cycle I changed the motor and it still giving the same problem, I removed the belt from the trans and motor thinking it was the trans putting a huge load on the motor, same problem as before, there is no capacitor on the machine. Could it be in the timer? Thanks, KevinRead More
