The next picture shows the new timer with the black wires coming out of the back. I don't know how to connect these. This timer has the same part number as the original, but you can see the set-up is a little different.

Hi Geoff, first lets do some wiring analysis. This diagram is from the original AMP, but I suspect that its very close, if not the same timer in the 101P. One wire looks like it should go into the same connection as the lamp and water valve, the other wire appears to go into terminal 2-A. Geoff, first of all is there a termial marked 2-A?

Why don't you just post the info here Chris, that way we all get to learn. By private email no one can reference this important info later on if someone else finds and works on a similar machine. I always will give much more indepth answers (if I know the answer) to questions people have when posted here as opposed to when I am privately emailed. | ||

Wait a minute, now that I'm home and had a good chance to review those pictures, Geoff it appears to me that the red and orange wires go into the timer motor, is that correct? If so all you have to do is cut the ends off the red and orange wires as well as the ends off of the timer motor wires, then using wire nuts and a wire stripper connect black/red and black orange together and your done. Does that make sense? | ||

Hi Geoff, according to the electrical chart above, terminal 2A goes from the timer directly into the timer motor. While the wiring diagram does show the wire from 2A crossing over the valve control it does not physically connect to it. The little bump in the line at the water control means that it crosses over but does not connect at that point. It’s for the convenience of drawing the chart only. Yes at the hardware store get a box of wire nuts for connecting 2 14 gauge wires. | ||

Thanks, Robert ... Bon-Ami and a sponge ... we'll give it a shot!!! I also want to paint the balancing ring; it should be black. I guess black Rustoleum should do the trick. I'll take pictures. | ||

Ben: Sorry Robert, I'm cutting in... It is sold in supermakets (at least in my area) with other cleansers like Comet, Ajax, Dutch Boy (Hi Louis!) and the supermarkets label etc. It is in a yellow canister with a shaker top and has red chicks on it (little chickens!) If this is unavailable near you, write to me and I will send you some.. Toggleswitch9@aol.com -Steve | ||

Greg, I've seen that Super Iron Out before. There are a lot of products up here; some of the wells are very hard in the rural areas. I can't wait to get it in running order and then I'll do the cosmetics and rearrange my laundry room!!!!! | ||

oil in water pump You might want to use a heavier oil than 3-in-1 for the pump. Those things, as well as older electric motors that have oilers for the bearings, usually specify 30 weight non-detergent automotive oil | ||
