Let's Fix Appliance Repair Chicago
Today was a very interesting repair of old Frigidaire custom imperial stove, produced circa 1960's.
In very good condition, clean, no rust,all original.
One heating element does not work at all.
After diagnostics i found a working heating element but the wire connector was broken.
So it was easy fix, just installed a new wire connector and assemble all back.
All four heating elements works.
Had a service call with Frigidaire dishwasher , model FDB1502RGB2 drain problem.
(no photos today, didn’t have time to take photos at this job)
Diagnostics show that the drain pump shaft is loose and jammed.
The diagram shows the spare number 154580301. But, unfortunately, this part was not in the car. Taking a closer look, it turned out that this is the same as 5304492415, only without the pump hose housing. Replaced it with this part, now everything works!
Today another one GE electronic components problem. Combo washer and dryer. The model is GUD27ESPM1DG. Manufactured in 2024. It's around 6 moths old, dryer works but washer part have no any reaction to any control. Like no power at all.
I checked all the washer wire connections. Everything is fine. Nothing suspicious. Only one wire holder clamp is not secured in place because the clamp was installed at the wrong distance from the hole.
Power is being supplied to the control board, measured 115 volts on input terminal pins, but the board appears to be disconnected. Finally, disconnect the power connector from the control and connect it back. The green diode on the board will start blinking and everything will start working as it should.
After looking carefully find a problem inside a control board power connector. When washer operates it has some vibration. Connector contacts very poor quality and loosen with time.
So solution is to adjust contacts dimensions inside connector.

Today repair. Dishwasher Electrolux, model FGIP2468UF0A had a problem: After finish the cycle dishes were still dirty and it had some bad smells from dishwasher. After diagnostics we found a low water pressure and a lot of mold in all water channels. You can see this new forms of life 'mold' inside dishwasher caused by low pressure and lack of water circulation.
Broken circulation pump was replaced by a whole new one assembly, including new drain pump, and actuator. OEM part number W11416362.
And internal parts was cleaned
And no more smells from dishwasher!
