I would love to have them, I'm really getting over my frontloader. I'm almost considering moving the Maytag in and the Frigidaire out on my day off this Thursday. |

I had this electronic control model before I found the rapid-advance mechanical timer. Mine worked fine most of the time but once in a while, the board would blink off and then restart itself on a random cycle of it's own choosing. The last time I used it, I was barely able to get it to drain the full tub of water before administering the last rites once and for all.
The earlier KA washers didn't have the auger, dual-action agitator as those patents or exclusive rights were tied up by Sears until 1987. After that, KA used the dual-action with a larger base agitator running on medium speed for "normal" wash action. The larger agitator running on medium gave a slower stroke but the same length as before - same transmission as WP & KM washers. Later the KA agitators were all white like the KM and WP washers but still retained the larger base and three-speed profiles as the earlier models. The rapid-advance machines only came in two speeds and had the smaller agitator base and faster stroke just like the WP & KM washers. I need to spend some time studying the wiring diagram and figure out how to wire in a three speed motor to my rapid-advance washer so I can use the big agitator, I like that wash speed much better than the faster stroke. |

Doug that black is near the end of the KA laundry appliances. It would be an excellent pair I love the fact that they added the excellent flush through timed dispensers to this machine. I am diffidently on the lookout for a pair of these at some point in time, this is a great performing pair that could be used as a daily driver for another 20 years .
