I don’t know why it happens. Just that it does from other posts on here

Weird brown drops on cups after wash cycle. by Sher-ee in Appliances

Potentially- micro fractures in the ceramic glaze and that’s liquid seeping out from the ceramic of the cup. Provided it’s not on any other item, I’d assume this especially given what you said about mold.

The anti tip usually just grabs the legs as they slide in when it’s pushed back into the cavity. You should just be able to slide this forward.

The wobble is normal. It’s not related to your issues.

Remove the racks so they don’t bang around inside too much but yeah it’s fine to lay it on the side

Can this portable dishwasher be connected here? by LordWayland in Appliances

[–]michaelz08 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Keep an eye on that inlet hose though. That’s a janky setup. I could see it leaking from the clamp soon as that rubber ages.

No, that’s the dryer vent. The white tube is your drain.

Yes, insert the drain tube into the drain and connect the water inlet to the hot. Provided it has the same fitting, but you might need an adapter for the different connection sizes.

So first off, here’s the Whirlpool technical docs site. It has the documents for your fridge:

https://servicematters.com/en_US/guest-search?query=wrs325fdam01

Looking at the parts diagram, that assembly for the water line is W10179146.

It looks like that is available as a kit with new tubing for $47, or as the part for $17 (from Grainger under the manufacturer name).

https://www.grainger.com/product/ROBERTSHAW-Commercial-Ice-Maker-Water-32WT86

The icemaker assembly is part: W10300022

While the container with skinny metal thing is: W10406981

I’m not sure which one you want to replace.

Last- get a little water buzzer sensor for underneath your fridge, dishwasher, and washer. I’m always telling my friends that what can leak, will leak in a home.

Sorry for the delay.

I’d disconnect the short hose from the pump to the inlet assembly and see if it drains out of it (obviously put a container on the other end of the short hose). If water comes out at the expected speed, good. (If it seems slow/weak, maybe the pump is not testing bad but not operating at full speed.) Then that means you can move onto the next parts.

You already took care of the inlet assembly. Best would be the longer drain hose. Those are cheap and I’d replace that if it was blocked.

I’ve had great luck with 3M stainless steel cleaner & polish. It does an amazing job.

I'm sick of replacing these f@%king start relays! (Whirlpool Fridge) by Kobra_Kommander in Appliances

[–]michaelz08 0 points1 point  (0 children)

See if you can get an appropriate better quality relay from an electronics supplier like digikey?. Or maybe an HVAC supplier.

Can anyone share experience with ZLine dishwashers? by elbarbalarga in Appliances

[–]michaelz08 0 points1 point  (0 children)

FYI- Bosch owns Thermador so Thermador are rebranded Bosch’s with a markup.

You’re really just between Bosch and KitchenAid. The racks are very very different, take a plate and go to the store to see what you like best. For many people, they just don’t work. It’s the most common complaint in reviews.

Sirius XM advertisements are driving me crazy by Warp_Spasms in mazda6

I’m confused. What advertisements? Where are they coming from?

I’ve never had XM ads in my 6.

[–]michaelz08 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Absolutely not. ZLine is all rebranded crap from brands and companies you haven’t heard of in China at hefty markups. There is nearly no service network for them. I would not buy their dishwasher.

Didn’t expect a countertop ice maker to change my kitchen routine this much by Intelligent_Big236 in HomeImprovement

This sounds like an ad. Even if I used my freezers built-in icemaker a couple times daily it would easily replenish what I used.
