I had the chance to stop by Damian's house last night and replace the motor in his KDE306 with the spare I had from a DG306 I had parted out recently. Some serious arcing had occurred with the connections to his old motor, so I also had to replace the connectors on the ends of a couple of the wires leading to the motor. Just over an hour later, his machine was up and running again. By the way, his Maytag pair is a 1969 KDE306 and a 1976 KA208.
Damian is a fine young man with a strong interest in collecting vintage appliances, furniture and decor. It was a pleasure to meet him and help him out. He allowed me to take some photos of his other major appliances and share them with the group. Some of you with a keen eye may be able to determine what kind of house he has from the photos below. |
