Greetings all, I'm trying to think through this process, and see what others may have done to resolve the problem. My story continues similarly to the story of other Whirlpool Gladiator owners. I purchased mine 4-5 years ago for a great price secondhand locally (Bakersfield , CA) Within a few months it started to ice up again. Model # GAFZ21XXRK02, August 2008 manufacturing date. Started with the copper wire wrapped around the defrost heater trick... Seemed to help, but then over time lost efficiency. Inspecting, it has started to corrode and was about 1/2 it's initial diameter in spots. Removed that and installed the official Whirlpool kit (819043)... Still freezing up. I live in a pretty arid region - we average about 6-7" of rain annually, and it is rarely humid. On my short list of things to check are the door seals and the defroster operation (I did check the resistance when I put the kit in, and it was within spec). My question: I see there are drain defrosters available for other makes and models, why couldn't this be added to my unit? Thinking through the possible issues, they might include: additional element may draw too many amps through that circuit, and would have to have a separate AC circuit (And relay(, and of course finding a drain heater that will work for this application (narrow enough to fit down drain, doesn't heat to the point of melting the drain tube). So suggestions on an appropriate part would be appreciated. Thanks in advance for your help!

Hi all... DIYer here and would love some guidance. I have a Whirlpool Cabrio Washer (WTW6400SW3) with an OL Error Code during normal cycle. I'm struggling to figure out what is wrong with it. Below are steps ALREADY performed (with Empty Washer - no load) and other symptoms: Gets OL Error code (70) on Manual Diagnostics Finishes Automatic Diagnostics without errors Runs "Rinse & Spin" cycle without errors. Machine seems to exhibit stronger shimmy/shake when the drain pump is running; without drain pump running, runs pretty smoothly. Drain pump does have a decent loud hum/buzz. Checked stator - has no cracks Found indications to check stator (done) and otherwise replace balancing shocks (not done yet). Doesn't seem like there's much to the shocks (just springs?) but I guess these could go bad? I've put a lot of effort into this puppy with multiple repairs over the years... and so far have kept it running!! Would love to continue to do so, as I now understand pretty well how it works. (Prior repairs: New electronics board, replaced the stator and rps, replaced the hub, replaced the drive and bearings.

Model: Whirlpool FWDG97168WFR / 769991549661 Hi there, My very first post here, as I just found this site. I have an issue with the dryer - clothes are not dry at all even after multiple cycles. Same results with small load or full load. This issue started (just to provide some context) with wet clothes after full cycle or F15 error and clothes inside the drum being very hot, which ended with failed heating element in the air heater chamber together with failed bearings in the hot air blower motor (I assume motor failed first). Replaced both, no more F15 error. Clothes are still not dry, sometimes after two - three cycles it is OK more or less. Drying cycle takes very long - 4 / 5 hours, and most of the time with wet clothes. Filter between the drum and condenser, condenser itself and everything I could reach cleaned - no difference. Temperature sensor for hot air checked, seems to be OK (20k@25C if I remember well, measured with hot water as well) Water valve for drum cooling (during drying cycle) works, releasing small amount of water. Currently waiting for plastic pipe (connecting detergent box and air heater), as the rubber part which connects to hot air side is damaged, but I am not sure if it can cause all the issues. Anyway, replacement is ordered. Please, if possible, provide some guidance, and service manual would be great to have as well. I have capability and knowledge to work on electrical stuff, but this issue makes me (and my wife) crazy. Thanks in advance.
