      Years ago I had problems with the valve that controls the flow of water when the washer was being emptied, it was a fairly easy job to replace and it fixed a similar problem. That’s the first place I’d look in to. Unfortunately I didn’t document it or make a video but I bet there’s more info out there on that. I’ll take a look when I get a chance and see what I can find.

    We have the very same 240v model, and I've had to replace those microswitches now two times. They might be undersized for the current that's going through them, as the connections on mine show heat degradation. I bought a multipack of those switches rated higher, and haven't had a problem since the last replacement. I've had two other problems that might help folks out. The obvious one is the fuse that blew and had to be replaced. Not knowing I could do it from the front, I pulled this extremely heavy microwave down (hinged clips on the back are tough to manage) to replace it. Unrelated to electronics, the door became hard to open/close. Grease on the clips didn't help, but a small spray of WD40 made it close and open like new. The latest issue (2024) was a bit of an odd one. The display had dimmed over time (and that typically points to a tired display or capacitors). One day, it started to flicker and go out. Unplugging the unit breathed life back into the display for an hour or so, then it would go out. Then, it would come back on, then out again. I took the unit down, and pulled the control board. While my unit's control board heat sinks are secure, there is a cluster of capacitors near them that I thought might be suspicious. Using my Capacitor Wizard, I found one that measured bad, pulled it, and it measured as two diodes on my M-Tester. It was a 25v 220uf electrolytic. As I'm quite used to re-capping audio equipment, I re-capped this board (only the electrolytics), re-installed it, and (actually to my surprise) the display lit up bright and working. As this is an expensive microwave to replace (if you want an Advantium, which I really like), with the new 240v version running over 2 grand, fixing the control board with a simple re-cap (total cost was less than 5 bucks in parts), is worth doing. Thanks for posting your original repair. Yet another thing to look for when these stop working.

    • @yourdiytechlife
      @yourdiytechlife Місяць тому

      If it’s unlocking ok then it’s definitely not this problem. The next place I’d look is the upper rollers on the back of the door that go bad frequently but there ares so many things that can go wrong on these doors that would just be a total guess. Hope you find your problem and there’s lots of videos on how to fix those roller guides problems.

      Hey there. I just noticed your comment and yes. All three are soldered to the copper flexible flat cable. Holding the flat cable up with the solder pads towards yourself the red wire goes to the left pad the yellow wire goes to the top right pad and the black wire goes to the bottom right pad. Hope that helps. Also. Make sure it’s all insulated when you reassemble.

  • @petersherrouse33
    @petersherrouse33 2 місяці тому

    Very good vid. You crushed it dude:-) One additional thought. On mine, the tabs on the pump impeller that engage and turn the spinning filter were badly worn and not evenly. I reshaped what was left and put a new filter in it. I lasted one year. It would be very beneficial if they would sell an impeller to go with the new filter. As I understand it, you can only get the impeller if you buy the motor. Word to the wise, if your filter is trashed and the impeller tabs are badly worn, the repair may not last long. Also note that the drive faces of those ears likely need to be very evenly spaced for the filter to not wobble and last.

    I would like to add here. There are 3d printed motors being sold on Ebay, total scam. Watch for those that have larger than original impeller blades. The motors are marketed as "used" justifying a low price but they are actually 3d printed, with no scuffs whatsover but the impeller area to sit in pool of water is not re-created like the original rendering them totally useless. The design does not allow for forceful sideways into the drain expulsion of the water. wASTE OF MONEY AND SCAMMERS RUNNING FREE

Therefore I've decided against this modification. Is there something about newer models that leads to the problems mentioned?

      Yes, Many of the older models don't have vcm so this would not be an appropriate modification for them. My 2010 has it BUT my sisters 2008 does not so it wasn't needed for hers. The problem comes down to, when vcm is activated there are changes with how the engine works that over time will damage the engine. For details check out the vcm thread on the Honda forums.

      My first guess would be the CV joint or possibly something further back in the drive train like the transfer case or one of the drive shafts. take a look at the CV joints and see if one of the rubber boots are torn and if so thats most likely the issue. I've also heard on the caddy forum that the shaft between the transfer case and transmission can fail sometimes. I dont have FWD so I don't know that FWD system at all but thats where i'd start.

    Why didn`t Yamaha use for example like a cpu socket on this DSP chips. Much more easy to replace them. And the contact would be much more stable! Got myself a Yamaha RX-A3040 receiver. Two identical DSP chips on that one. The known error is that the sound cuts out for a few seconds and the display of the speakers disappears from the screen of the receiver. This only happens when running digital sound. Netflix etc. If you run analog sound, the problem disappears. I first sprayed the entirely digitalboard with Wd-40 spray. And used a toothbrush to clean the entirely digitalboard and chips. Then used a cloth on the chips. Then a hairdryer for 2 minutes on the DSP chips. Let it cool down for 10 minutes. Then I put Honeywell PTM7950 Super Highly Thermally Conductive Pad on the chips. Problem solved. No more sound cuts.

I watched a bunch of videos, this being one of them, to try to get a sense of what was going on. When I did my exploratory surgery and opened up the pump housing, I was surprised to find that my filter got shredded just like yours. I guess this is not an uncommon problem?

This video helped a lot but it seems that the old part number for the filter is unavailable and the new one does not directly replace W10713298 as stated. The base of the housing is smaller and does not seat properly. The wave washer just sits around the new filter and the tab no longer goes on the outside like the original. I put it back together anyway as everywhere stated it's the direct replacement and it was SO LOUD. I chatted with Kitchenaide today and they were absolutely no help. I am taking the new filter out and putting it into the old housing and hope that works but that should NOT be the case. There are other reviews out there stating the same but Kitchenaide claims there are no issues. I am just curious if you ran into this replacing yours since it seems like the new replacement part first became available in Oct 2023. It's about a 0.5-inch difference in circumference between the old and new filter houses. I'm beyond frustrated with Kitchenaide for both their horrible design to get us all here in the first place and making the solution another problem. And maybe this comment will help others in the same boat.

    Hey Dan thanks for this video! My IMac i7 3.4 GHz intel with the AMD Radeon HD 6970M 1024 MB doing the same the grey screen of dead. And when this method you explain here works great 👍 thanks.

    I am going to do it your way but… how did you determine you needed 84 ohms when all the kits give you 82 ohms? What year is the vehicle in the pictures? I have a 2006 odyssey and all the kits (really sneakily) say 2007 or newer…due to different shaped ECT connectors- which is why I’d rather do it your way. Is there any reason why different years would need higher or lower ohm resistors? How come you are the only person who seems to have done the vcm disable in a way that actually makes sense? I saw the vcm tuner 2 was $79, maybe because it has an adjustable resistor- ridiculous! Sorry for all the questions- I guess my main question is 82 or 84 ohms???

      It’s not an exact science. 82 ohms is within the error margin of 84 ohms and should work just fine. Some vehicles might require slightly higher or lower and it also depends on how warm your climate is so you might have to play with it a little bit 84 ohms works for me. I’ve had several folks say they used up to and over 100 homes in hot climates.

      It should be the same however keep in mind My car is a rear wheel drive only so none of the all wheel drive hardware is on my car but it should be very similar.

    Hey man I soldered a 1/4 100ohm resistor on the green wire, eco light still comes on, any advice? 2010 odyssey

    • @yourdiytechlife
      @yourdiytechlife 10 місяців тому

      Did you cut the wire and solder it in line with the wire? That’s the only way this will work so make sure it’s in series and not grounding out or something like that. 100 ohms should be fine especially if you’re in a hot climat. Send me a pic of the resistor and I can see if there are any visible issues. Also. Make sure it’s 100 ohms and not something like 10 or 1. Ohms.

    I tried to follow your system but was only able to find one 82 and another one 03 which came to 85 ohm plug it in and the VSC & check light came on along with P0008 still do not know what went wrong?

    • @yourdiytechlife
      @yourdiytechlife 11 місяців тому

      Hey John. The first thing you need to make sure of is that you can’t put the resistor in parallel with the sensor. It must be in series with it. A simple way to make sure it’s in series is to only cut one of the leads going to the sensor and insert the resistor between that cut in the wire. Hope that helps.
