Monday Sept. 13th

Hi all,

2002 Kenmore Freezer on Top Refrigerator(Frigidaire built): Leaking water on the top self of Refrigerator from freezer in defrost cycle, There is a repair kit to fix this problem, its a upgraded ferrule kit thats directs the defrost water into the proper area to drain to the drain pan underneath. Ordered.

2003 Frigidaire Dishwasher: Taking to long to complete cycle on heated wash and heated rinse options.
This is very rare to happen, i have only seen this happen about 3 times since i started appliance repair in 1987: Its not a dishwasher problem, its a installion problem. The person who installed it connected the water supply to the cold water faucet underneath the sink. So everytime the dishwasher calls for water , it only puts in COLD water the entire cycle. That means the heating element will stay on about 8 hours, if not more, to try to heat the cold water to 130 degrees. While the timer stays in one place as well, while the motor runs that long too.
Advised cutomer to change the water supply to the hot water faucet underneath sink. :)

1999 Kenmore Dryer(Whirlpool built) not turning on: Found thermal fuse out in dryer. Cleaned out lint blockage, replaced thermal fuse, worked great!

Thats it today!
Have a good evening!
