Thank you for the detailed guide! My fridge is now no longer flooding!
Ty soooo much!! Nice and simple
No problem at all
Thank you sir
No problem at all
Condenser fan
Yes if condenser fan goes the refrigerant won't be cooled down and recirculate warmer.
Thanks
No problem at all, thanks for watching!!
Just as an FYI - older whirlpool gold electric dryer holds around 140 empty. Seeing around 110-135 with a load of tshirts and jeans. Set on high. Not sure if that’s normal, seems like its a little slow to dry.
Using k type probe and meter
Yes there is quite a bit of variance depending on so many things, thanks for the post. Thanks for watching as well!
Bullshit didn’t work cloths still wet brand new dryer
There are a lot of things that can affect the dryness, heat, air movement, and thermostats.
Mine skips from normal which is 42 minutes to 2 minutes Has anyone ever had this issue before,let me know thanks
The sensor bars could be dirty, try using timed dry and see if it still does that.
No you fownload the app then sync clock to your phone
Yes there is definitely some newer versions than this setup
Replaced my "MWF Manifold" today and saw an instant improvement to water flow. Previously I was getting extremely slow flow, with audible chattering coming from the system, and ice cubes were sometimes hollow. Now flow is good, silent, and full. Thanks for the quick demonstration!
Yes definitely I always start at the wall to check pressure for this exactly. Thanks for watching!!
It doesn’t work for me!
Does yours have the button that the video does?
Great job, much appreciated. Clear, easy to follow that even a guy not known for his DIY skills was able to tackle this job and it went flawlessly.
Awesome, I'm glad it went well. Good job!
I am not getting power to the ice maker, L-N nothing... did not cover that at all
I would disconnect the wiring from the back of the ice maker and see if there is 120v there, I can't tell you exactly which color wire because most fridges are different.
Greg Thomas just a word for the ladies, I am 67 a veteran and teacher, if I can do this you can too.
Well said, thanks for watching!
I really want to clean in between the glass panes. Mine doesn’t appear to open unless I take the entire thing apart. Dang it!
Yes every machine seems to come apart different, some can be quiet easy, some can be pretty tough.
The samsung dryer use doesn't have it on. It goes from 59 minutes to 1 minute after 5 minutes. My clothes are not dry
Yeah there is a lot of issues that could cause that, like that button being on, the sensor bars being dirty, the vent being plugged. Try running it on time dry and see if it fixes this shutting off early stuff
@Thomasappliance I finished troubleshooting and somehow water is slowly leaking from inside the sealing draining down the exhaust pipe to the dryer vent. This is in my workplace and I believe I fixed it for everyone by taking care of the water issue. It seems like a safety feature for it to shut off due to the water creating a moisture build up
@justincredible3808 yes definitely, that's very rare but good job diagnosing that one.
what is the effect on the heater operation if the test indicates 92 ohms? my icemaker will make and eject ice one time after resetting using the TH jumper, refills tray, but then won't eject again. any suggestions?
It manually turns on the heater, the heater turning on starts the cycle, so next time it needs to eject the heater is not turning on. So either the heater, or thermostat, or possibly wiring is the issue.
not clear how you diagnose the pump with screwdriver. if I put any load or spin cycle, the water starts coming out if I open the filter panel. (showing ND, and water not draining, 15yr old samsung so likely pump has gone bad, but it could be gunk somewhere)
I just use a screwdriver to turn the drain pump impeller to see if it's stripped or seized. Some machines you can't do this to though. If the filter and area around the filter is clean the pump is probably shot.
Yeah if the issue was that i jammed 6 pillows and a kingsize mattress in there i wouldnt be scouring the internet for help thx bud
Np, thanks for watching
I think I have that same model, but the freezer part won't keep things frozen, but it freezes food kept near the back of the refrigerator, any thoughts on how to fix this?
These are just radiantly cooled so there is really no way to direct the cold, if the freezer section is not freezing it may be running out of freon possibly.
@@Thomasappliance Ah I see, I saw things about the coils being dirty but I didn't even think to check the freon lol, thank you!
Mines has ice but beers not cold enought..sometimes it fresees them but not now..
I would check that the door seal is sealing properly all the way around, then maybe turn up the temp and see how it does.
Have no clock button just a clock on the stove and a house symbol a heart alight bulb and something that leads to tools but not a place to change a clock. Any ideas please
There is an x to make it all go away but no place to change clock
It has modes things like sabbath this is one special but still no way to simply change the clock
Has offered to disable
you can send me your model number and i can look it up, there is so many different stoves out there.
Thank you so much 👍👍👍
No problem at all
I have a Maytag dishwasher.I put In brand new in 2002. So yeah after that long time it's bound to have something going on. It seems to run through the cycle and do everything but I just don't think it has the water pressure it used to have. I ran some vinegar through it and it's real real clean inside , so I'm checking other things.
Yes machines definitely get slower and less powerful as they age, that's a long time to have a dishwasher!!
@@Thomasappliance I opened it up and there's a little dinosaur underneath there eating all the table scraps from the dishes. I saw one like this on the Flintstones, so yeah, it must be pretty. ancient. 🫛🥦🥬🦖
@@icemancometh8679 lol that should last a while
Hello. Thomas i have a ge stove and i brought a new control board and I'm not getting and power to the panel
You will have to trace power right from the wall, some stoves have a thermal fuse on them that totally cuts power to everything also.
“You just hit this”. Would have been nice to see what to hit.
On this stove it just said clock on the button I pushed
Actually one video that really worked ty ty ty❤
No problem at all, glad it helped
My ice maker produces water and turns on its own but stops when it goes to push out the ice. Does that mean my heater is out?
Yes either the heater or thermostat, most ice makers you can not change individual parts though.
Can I stick a insulated jump wire into the L and H to check if my heater works or does it have to be done with this device?
The wire will bypass the heater, so it might get a little warm but I would wait until the arms are just about down to feel for heat. Be careful it is pretty hot.
how do I take out the front panel ice maker ice dispenser shoot etcetera there is a electric warmer in there behind this to keep the water line warm keep it from freezing mine is frozen obviously the electric warmer is bad terrible terrible job
Is the ice maker in the door?
The name of the oven
It is a samsung oven
Can you come do mine 😭
They are a little bit of a pain but you can do this!
I love the video. Is there any benefit or risk to using compressed air to blow thought the lines when disconnected from the pump/solenoid? If there is a clog, would the compressed air blow that out of the line? If the issue appears to be the filter head pin, can you clean the pin to help free it from sticking? How much does a new filter head cost (generally)?
There shouldn't ever be anything stuck in the lune because it's after the pump. The problem is the pin has been held in for so long that everything gets waped inside the head housing. Generally the head housing in canada is about $200-$250
why does it say (3 sec) on that button!?? ive been holding the buttons 🤦♀️😡
That is for another feature, usually holding the button on any stove either locks the door or turns on child lock. If glad the video helped.
Thanks for your help! I discovered that there’s a coin stuck on the far side of the filter hole. Too big to clear out through the hole. I’m guessing I’ll need to take the barrel out or something? Is there another way to access that catcher without major disassembly?
If its reachable you can use a long pair of needle nose to pull it through, if it's too big for that then it needs to be taken apart.
😂😂😂🎉😂😂😂
Where was the thermostat?
dang mine has square plastique things that fell out, now I dont know were thwy go. grrrrr
What is the model number of the stove? maybe I can get a breakdown
Would like to use a Samsung dishwasher but don’t have one.
Samsung dishwashers have a lot of problems, but most machines do now a days.
Most helpful video, thank you for sharing!
Glad it was helpful!
Good job, you went through it all it’s awesome. Keep up the great work thank you.
Thanks for the great feedback, I hope the video helped
Thx brother
Np at all, glad it helped!
Does the metal arm cut of electricity to solenoid? Is solenoid 120v or low voltage? Great video!
The metal arm is just a switch which will connect a path of electricity between power and neutral when the arm is down. The only solenoid in the system is the water valve, which is 120v.
Could u give sequence of operation of how solenoid works?
There is a cam inside the ice maker on the motor, which makes or breaks certain points to provide power to or take away power to the internal heater, the water valve, and the thermostat.
@@Thomasappliance Thnk u, Thomas appliance. So, the icemaker water is in off position until cam turns & opens valve? Is my thinking correct?
@@gotchaplumber yes that's correct
@@Thomasappliance Thnk u
@@gotchaplumber no problem at all
Hi there, excelent explaining. I did all that in my whirlpool french type fridge. Everything inculuding water valve is good. The only problem is that water is not coming in ice maker. By the way when filling manually and test with jump wire ice maker works good. Therefore kindly tell how to make water come to ice maker.
First thing to check is when you jump it to run a cycle does the water valve do anything when it should be filling?
Thank you very much lmao.
Your very welcome
You’re video on getting rid of the ice build up was extremely helpful. It took me an estimated time of an hour and half to get rid of water and clean. Thank you!!!
Your very welcome, good job on doing that yourself!!
We've got very little water at the dispenser and almost no ice being made. Water supply line from the house is fine. However the line coming from the filter to the water valve has water coming through but it isn't high pressured at all. Just a slow trickle. I'm assuming there should be some decent pressure from that line from the filter?
Yes it should be the same pretty much as before the filter.
Very helpful. I've always had a glass top stove and just bought my first house but it has the coils. Wasn't sure what was wrong
Thanks for watching, and glad the video helped!
How do you put the stand part of the fan back together I’m having issues with that part of the fan
I haven't taken that apart, next time I clean it I'll have a look
