Propane to natural gas conversion on range and dryer Vincent P. • Howell , NJ • October 09, 2014
Confirmed parts needed through online chat with tech and followed video instructions for dryer conversion. Found a video online for range conversion. Replaced orifices for stove top and adjusted oven burner orifices and air shutters and inverted pin in pressure regulator to natural gas position. All went well with no problems, about an hour and a half to gather tools and complete both jobs. Probably could be done faster but I was taking my time.

Leaking water from the tub seal David C. • Bessemer City , NC • January 27, 2018
THIE REPAIR WAS ON A WHIRLPOOL TOP LOAD WASHING MACHINE
At first I suspected the leak was from the pump because I had replaced the pump 2 times over 10 years. This time with the cabinet removed and filling the tub with water, I saw water running down one of the steel support arms that go under the tub, so I was guessing that it was coming from the tub seal. I had to use a jumper wire to bypass the Lid Switch so the water would drain.
Several months before I had this issue with the water leaking...
