Sears Kenmore Washer Lid Switch
6/29/2009 8:20:43 AM
Sears Kenmore Washer(model#110.23034101): Washer will fill with water then stop and not do anything, also when you put it spin, nothing happens. Found the lid switch bad.
What you do to check it is to get a volt/ohm meter and put the the meter on the ohms setting, then put the meter probes in the black & red connectors from the lid switch, then push the lid switch down, if your meter reads 0-1 ohms then its good, if the meter reads nothing at all its bad.
Here's the lid switch for this model:

5/19/2009 8:02:21 AM
Sears Kenmore Refrigerator(Model#596.75529400): Not cooling properly. I found the evaporator, that's located inside the freezer behind the back panel, all frosted up heavily. Before you defrost it always ohm the defrost thermostat for continuity. I did a ohm test on it for continuity with an ohm meter, found no continuity at all. Installed new defrost thermostat, worked great!
Here's the defrost thermostat for this model:
