Does anyone happen to have a service manual laying around for a WFW8640BW0 (alpha 2) Whirlpool front load washer?

I uploaded (2) of the (3) tech sheets mentioned in that Service Update,

but they seem to have gotten "lost"

I was working on the Downloads section last night-- fixing the site search engine so it finds files with terms like "500" (success! Try it out) and recent uploads may have gotten nuked. Just re-upload. All good.

Forgive me, in my drunken haze I must have taken the original Job Aid from Whirlpool about seven months ago and noone figured out how to create another one. Or then again this may only be for the Alpha 1. I didn't notice this in the downloads but with this Job Aid and the link above that should be equal to the Alpha 2 Job Aid.

1) search for the (9) files "Sub-Zero" < no results

2) all good

The built-in search in the site is MySQL-based so you can't use special characters like "-" in the search terms-- the search interprets that as "Find files containing the specific term 'sub' without the specific term 'zero'".  This construct is true and the search is working as designed.  This is why tags are such an important component of effective searching and why I have stressed including them with uploads.   

 

If you want a more Google-like search experience when looking for files, use this search box:  http://appliantology.org/concierge/search-tools.html

a search for "sub" doesn't result in anything, either

There is no document with the standalone term "sub" in it.

"Subzero" does not equal "sub". Two different terms.

The search is working correctly. You're thinking like a googler. Use the other search engine I linked to.
