Washing machine fixed!..except one little problem.
#1
For those of you following my saga of the F&P washing machine, the new diverter valve arrived and was easily swapped into the machine. A new wash was started and a half hour later calls of "flood in the laundry room" echoed through the house. Donning my trusty galoshes (well, actually I just took my shoes off) I waded in with flashlight and tools to peer beneath the infernal machine. As I kneeled there in the soggy mess, I commented to the family that it was difficult to tell where the water was coming out. However, a quick look behind the machine revealed the problem...some dummy forgot to reconnect the drain tube to the drain pipe!!

One thing I gotta say. The new diverter valve has the same incredibly delicate and flimsy connection between the solenoid and valve arm. It's absolutely certain that this one will break too...hopefully not for another 5 to 10 years though.
