Does anyone have anything they need to say? Have you let anybody, or
yourself down? Has it been all about you?

I am in the process of attempting to fix my 2 y.o. GE hydrowave washing
machine which has developed a leak and now appears to have a dead motor.
I've got it torn down pretty far tonight and found a burned resistor on the
motor's circuit board. I will be attempting an r&r of the burned resistor
and hope to have this thing back washing clothes before the end of the
weekend. Otherwise I'm in the doghouse and will be buying a new washer.

You've made an important 1st step by recognizing the problem - so they say.

Hold off on the a new frontloader washer. It'll give you flashback to the
old navy days.

I found these faqs addressed the GE with the '49 Olds transmission - (I know
sometimes Google doesn't work in Harris County)

Ahaa! That's where that blinker ghost went. It's been missing for a few days
and now it showed up in the washer. I did fix the washer though. Bought 14
cents worth of resistors (2) at EPO here in Houston and got it into the
circuit board. Wasn't pretty, it sets about 1/2" above the board, why do
they make them leads so long anyways. It's working on my youngest son's load
right now. I guess I will be testing it all day long.
