I had a service call yesterday on this hot point washer. Customer said it was leaking water. She knew it was old. She said it was in the house when they bought it in 1997.
Turned out the outer tub had a hole rusted in it, I told her it would cost her $.25 to fix, she agreed and I proceeded to make the repair.
Haven’t worked on it Filter Flow style, GE washer in many years and you can see what a nasty mess it was with the oil leaking everywhere from the transmission. I’m glad we don’t have to work messy things often anymore.
I remember an old GE service man that I knew and he always complained you either cut your hands an fingers or got oily or dirty GE also used this nasty black tape on the wiring harness is that left black goo all over your fingers when you touched it, lol
