Front panel shot, along with the GM moniker next to "FRIGIDAIRE", give it away.

This looks to be a 1975 W2 model. Looking at the timer charts the '75 models show two increments of spray rinse before the spin stops for fill of the rinse cycle.
The 1970 S line and 1979 B/G manuals show the same increments allotted for the spray rinse, with the 1970 models having a 72 second increment/pulse, and the 75/79 having the 100 second increment/pulse. The change to 100 second increments look to have started with the 1972 T line models. Ben |

I appreciate both the clarity and the reassurance that no matter what timer-advance increment any given model happens to have, the operator enjoys 144 or 200 seconds of 12 jet circle spray,
a boatload of water either way, making for extravagant and sensational spray rinsing, one of the secrets to the GM 1-18's exemplary performance. I've made the contact, receiving my first, huge, powder-blue Facebook Marketplace thumbs-up icon a few days ago, nothing however since; will keep you posted. |
