How Much Change Can a Dryer Have Inside? Taking a LOUD Dryer Apart for Coins Inside
How do you know if you're going to find money in a dryer? We brought a dryer into the shop and all we could here was money, so I got my camera to capture what would happen - good or bad. So join us and see if an electric clothes dryer has a lot of money in it. Also, we're giving away a free hat the week after release. I'll notify the winner on May 14th for a free hat w/ free shipping.

KitchenAid Refrigerator Not Cooling & Leaking Water but Freezer is Fine - How to Fix
One of the recent and common problems with newer high-end refrigerators with problems is having a KitchenAid Refrigerator that won't cool in the refrigerator cabinet, has water in the crisper drawers, or the KitchenAid Refrigerator makes noise. The same things can occur on a Whirlpool refrigerator - it won't cool in the refrigerator cabinet, or that the Whirlpool Refrigerator makes noise. Both are the same internally, so the proper fix is the same.
Buy the W11033168 Fan Kit: https://bit.ly/2RXQYZf
Make sure the fan assembly is for your exact fridge, otherwise check the appropriate one for your refrigerator at: https://bit.ly/3pVxWyX
The major part we are using to fix this is the W11033168 Fan, Thermistor and Thermostat Kit. It is an all-in-one system that replaces the failed or degraded components. There's also the chance that there's damage to the fan which we address in the video. We're also adding on a secret tip from Whirlpool near the end on doing a forced-defrost mode that'll really help the refrigerator improve its de-icing capabilities through the Whirlpool Basic Defrost Mode.
Additionally, a major component of the fix is simply taking this type of refrigerator apart, which is a mess. 4 and 5-door units have a different system of teardown as far as the shelving goes. RepairClinic has a good video at: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZFeHzy2U2Cw
Read the first comment by Scott Roper, though because he's correct that you can avoid a few issues by skipping to the crisper tray in the 4/5-door unit.
Remember: If your refrigerator has dirty condenser coils, it could be failing to cool this KitchenAid refrigerator properly, costing you a lot of money as well as why the ice maker won't automatically operate - consider buying an appliance cleaning kit to prevent your appliance from an early failure.

KitchenAid Refrigerator Troubleshooting and Diagnostic Codes - Whirlpool Refrigerator Diagnostic Too
Today, we're unraveling how to put a KitchenAid Refrigerator into diagnostic mode, and how to decipher some of the KitchenAid Refrigerator Error Codes, among other things. This is a newer-style interface, and you can use this same system and same codes to Troubleshoot a Whirlpool Refrigerator along with the same Whirlpool Refrigerator Error Codes and Troubleshooting. The number of tests and error codes on this system is incredibly deep, and its very useful if in case your KitchenAid refrigerator won't cool or has some other issue.
I'll be honest: This video is boring unless you need to use the system, then its awesome. I struggled to find a good video on this when I had to tech these style machines at customer houses because the last tech didn't know what he was doing, and stole the tech sheet.

Maytag Refrigerator Reprogramming - Installing the W10310240 Control Board
If you have a Maytag Refrigerator that won't display temperature or a Maytag Refrigerator Control Won't turn on, this is a simple video on how to take out, install and reprogram a Maytag Refrigerator control board. When you buy a new W10310240 control board, you'll likely get the PE0000 error code, or something similar that requires you to reprogram your refrigerator. We did this on an MFI2569VEM2 Maytag refrigerator, but this will work for a Whirlpool Gold control board, too.
Replacement Board via Amazon: https://amzn.to/3B0EfXm
Remember: If your refrigerator has dirty condenser coils, it could be failing to cool this refrigerator properly, costing you a lot of money as well as why the ice maker won't automatically operate - consider buying an appliance cleaning kit to prevent your appliance from an early failure.
Link: https://bit.ly/3zQGFYK
Eventually, I am going to put out a video on simply repairing the board instead of replacing it, so make sure to subscribe for when the video comes out.

Samsung Refrigerator Not Cooling in Fresh Food Cabinet - How to Fix with a Second Heater
It seems like that, eventually, your Samsung Refrigerator won't cool in the upper cabinet, or the Samsung refrigerator starts leaking water inside the cabinet. Or you'll even experience the dreaded Samsung refrigerator fan noise problem. All of these issues (and maybe another one or two) are all due to one problem: Your refrigerator has ice and frost build-up behind the upper evaporator panel.
I made one video dealing with this problem, but the heater installation used a different type of splicing type that works great, but is a bit more difficult to work with (in my opinion!). This installation is quicker and easier.

GE Washer Troubleshooting - How to Find Error Codes, and Reset a GE Washer
GE Washing Machines have a pretty fantastic hidden diagnostic mode that will help you troubleshoot a huge range of issues like dealing with a GE Washer not spinning. In today's video, I want to show how easy it is to figure out how to get a GE washing machine into diagnostics. Doing this can make GE washing machine repair much easier than guessing on what's going on, as you can initiate parts tests directly from the controls without opening anything up.
This diagnostic system is exclusively for the GE washer top load machines, and wouldn't working a GE frontload washing machine.

Glass Top Stove Cleaning - How to do it and Remove Burnt Food
Since I run a used appliance store, we had to learn how to clean a glass top stove a long time ago. It isn't hard to deal with a glass stove top, but I figured it'd be a great idea to film one of the ways we clean them. Initially, I wanted to film multiple styles, but hadn't found a stove this nasty since I filmed this, so I decided how to show you how to do it and how to clean burnt stove top gunk and junk with a razor knife.

GE Refrigerator Leaking Water on the Floor - How to Clean a Drain Line
A huge problem that you could experience is your GE refrigerator leaking water on the floor. This trick works for most refrigerators leaking water inside the cabinet, as its usually caused by an ice build-up or obstruction in the drain line. If you suspect that your GE refrigerator is leaking from the bottom, then this video will help you.
In the video, I show you how to remove the evaporator panel cover on a GE refrigerator, what parts you're likely to see such as the evaporator coils and defrost heater, then show you how to clean a refrigerator drain line out. This is a cheap, easy fix that can save you a HUGE amount of money on a service call, and save a lot of headaches for the cost of some plastic hose and a soda bottle.

Refrigerator Won't Cool in Garage - How to Install Garage Heater Kit + Upgrade
If you have a refrigerator that won't work in garage, its likely not designed for that. However, there is a thing such as a Universal Garage Heater Kit, although its branded as a Frigidaire Garage Heater Kit.
This installation will work as a Whirlpool Garage Heater Kit and Kenmore Garage Heater Kit too, just make sure that you have a manual cold control switch prior to purchasing/installation. Hopefully by watching this video, you'll fully understand how to install a Frigidaire Garage Heater Kit, and then the option I went with to improve the design with the rocker switch.

How to Test Appliance Parts with a Cheater Cord | How to Make a DIY Power Cord
When you do appliance repair, many times you will want to test a certain part away from the appliance, like to learn how to test a washer drain pump, or test a refrigerator heater. Learning how to build a cheater cord, or tester cord, or component tester is a great, cheap, easy way to do this. I was working on another video and wanted to test the component away from an appliance to see how it worked (the blue heater) which is why I decided to make this video.
I'll likely reference a few things in this video in the future, just in case you need to test a particular appliance part in the future. These are easy and cheap to build, so I have a few of these at my shop, and the on/off switch makes it more practical to do as well.

Whirlpool Oven Won't Heat - How to Range Troubleshoot a Whirlpool Oven Not Working
If you have a Whirlpool oven that won't heat, then this video is made to give you a few major ideas on how to diagnose and fix an oven not heating. We inspect & test a Whirlpool oven element, deal with an oven control board, and a few other things that could cause you to have a Whirlpool oven not working - along with ways to rule out a lot of different things.
Although this video is a guide for a Whirlpool Electric Oven, the same steps are going to be the same for practically every major brand on the market, and both coil top stoves and glass-top stoves. This video is not a good guide for gas stoves.
Here are a few basic parts and tools we're dealing with in the video to fix a range:

Whirlpool Cabrio Washer Won't Start or Turn On - How to Repair the Interface
If you own a Whirlpool Cabrio Washer that won't start or a Cabrio washer that won't turn on, there is a sadly common problem that is extremely costly to repair by replacing the Cabrio Washer interface board. However, there's a very quick and affordable fix to solve this issue. The problem occurs that will cause the Whirlpool Cabrio Washer won't start and just beeps among other things - again, all caused by the interface board.
In this video, we go through a quick confirmation via the Cabrio Washer Error Code system to show some other possible codes, but are primarily concerned with the Cabrio F6E2 Error code, if a code comes up at all.
Link for MG Chemicals Conformal Coating Repair Kit: https://bit.ly/3DrMHjs - Includes everything to fix the issue + coat board to ensure it lasts forever.
I did a similar video for the Maytag Bravos XL Washer that had the same issue - both systems are extremely similar. I did this companion video showing how to take apart the interface further for a better cleaning, so the video is slightly different.
If sadly this repair doesn't work and you confirmed there was damage to the interface, you'll have to purchase a new board. Here's an affiliate link to purchase the board from Appliance Parts Pros: https://bit.ly/3kXJ0Id

GE Washer Agitator Removal - How to do it and access the GE Washer Hub and More
Today, we had to replace a GE Washer agitator which meant that we had to take it out, which isn't easy to do on these newer-style washers. No one else has (seemingly) done a video, so I thought we'd do that when we got the new GE Washer Auger from Appliance Parts Pros.
All you need to do a GE Agitator Repair is a screwdriver, and the new agitator itself. The big problem with this is that you MUST remove the agitator if you want to do anything involving the GE Washer Hub, or a GE Washer Tub, or GE Wash Plate - the screw keeping everything in place is hidden under the agitator which is a major problem.
This video only involves the agitator / auger itself, not the hub. However, those are almost self-explanitory, and the big issue is what's shown in the video. I hope this helps you with your GE washer, as it was a real pain to figure this one out, as all newer style GE's have this issue which isn't really discussed much how to solve.
Buy this GE Agitator if yours is bad for a newer-style GE Washer (WH43X31240): https://bit.ly/2KRMY9r

GE Refrigerator Won't Cool - Easy Ideas on how to Fix a Refrigerator Not Cooling
Do you have a GE Refrigerator that won't cool at all, or just isn't getting cool enough? Many times, people think they need to figure out how to add freon to a refrigerator, but many times, its a fix that a regular person can do, or at least troubleshoot themselves easily enough.
In this video, I want to show you some GE Refrigerator troubleshooting - what GE Refrigerator parts to look for that could cause the unit to not work as its intended. On this one, we find out pretty darn fast why it won't work! But I went ahead and went over other major parts we find that are responsible for causing a refrigerator like this to not work properly.
The goal of this video is to show you why a GE refrigerator won't cool, and the main, easy-to-fix culprits of why a GE fridge won't cool.
A few things we cover in the video:
- How to clean a refrigerator
- How to check a refrigerator compressor relay
- How to Repair a GE refrigerator defroster system
- Addressing a GE Refrigerator Not Cooling

Remember: If your refrigerator has dirty condenser coils, it could be failing to cool this GE refrigerator properly, costing you a lot of money as well as why the ice maker won't automatically operate right - consider buying an appliance cleaning kit to prevent your appliance from an early failure.

Kenmore Washer Troubleshooting - How to Find Error Codes & Recalibrate to Fix Your Washer
If you have a Kenmore Washer that has problems like it won't spin, this video is to help you "Open Up" the washer and put this washer into diagnostic mode. These style washers (made from 2009 to 2016 and still today with other brands) have a powerful error code mode that will show you how to solve stuff like your Kenmore Washer won't spin - or at least isolate why that's an issue. Using these systems should help you pin down why a Kenmore Washer won't spin, or other issues like a Kenmore washer won't drain. These steps can be done on many other styles of VMW washers (which all have the green oval lights and go under brand names like Maytag, Kenmore, Amana, Roper, Whirlpool, Inglis, Admiral and others).
In this video, we're showing you the 4 primary mode of the Kenmore Washer Diagnostic system:
- Error Code modes to help isolate why a Kenmore Washer's Not Spinning or your Kenmore Washer Not Draining
- Automatic Test Mode to test all Kenmore Washer Parts & Components
- Manual Test Mode (IMPORTANT!) to test all Kenmore Washer Parts individually
- Kenmore Washer Recalibration and Kenmore Washer Reset - this mode is NEEDED when you install a new Kenmore Washer Part!
My hope is this video helps you to identify what's going on with the washer. This doesn't show you how to install parts, buy parts, or diagnose the part via multimeter, but at least points you in the right direction. I plan on doing future videos on this.

How Much Money Can We Find in a Random Dryer? Opening Up a Rattling Dryer to See!
I buy used appliances for my store all the time. Once in awhile, we'll hear a lot of rattling around. This time, the person I bought the dryer from said they thought there was a significant amount in this one, so I decided to grab my camera and see what would happen. The video was shot with no knowledge of what would be in the dryer, and I think all the dirt/dust/lint on the inside would show that.
How to Run a Used Appliance Store Interview Part #2
Here is Part #2 of the interview with Gabe of Washer Dryer Money, a used appliance business out of Mississippi. We talk for another 20 minutes about our respective businesses, trade ideas, and situations with our respective customers and appliances.

Maytag Bravos XL Washer Won't Start - How to Check and Refurbish Interface
It seems there is a rash of issues with both Maytag Bravos Washer's that won't start as well as the similar Cabrio Washer won't start issues. On either system, the interface either will "Hang" and not start any commands, or the Maytag Bravos XL Won't turn on, meaning the washer buttons don't work on washer. Both of these situations have to deal with a woefully inadequate interface that will short out.
Since releasing this video, the price of the coating has nearly doubled. I found a supplier to help me out, and we now have a kit with all the items you need to fix the problem, and coat the board as shown with the exact same coating for much less: https://bens-appliances.com/products/whirlpool-cabrio-maytag-bravos-interface-repair-kit
Fortunately, it's possible to repair them, as well as improve the design that Whirlpool whiffed on.
In this video, we're doing to deal with the following problems:
- Maytag Bravos Won't Start
- Cabrio Washer Screen Reset
- Cabrio Washer Won't Start
- Maytag Bravos Won't Turn On
- Maytag Bravos Stuck on Sensing
- How to Replace Maytag Bravos Interface
- How to Fix a Maytag Bravos Interface
- Maytag Bravos XL Troubleshooting
Among other things. All the issues center around refurbishing the interface. In the video, we thought the interface was toast, but it wasn't. You'll see what a properly-cleaned interface is supposed to look like on the contact pads, so if yours has residue/damage, you'll know exactly what the difference is.
If this did not fix the issue, then its very likely the Bravos / Cabrio Interface is bad. If you have to order the correct one, AppliancePartsPros can verify which interface you need:
