The unit (6 years old) stops after a 30 sec. After rearming I can start again, and again, and again. Because the unit is no longer under guaranty, I disconnected the motor unit. By testing it (beside the pool)the same phenomena appears. The driving motor switches a few times direction and then stops. I've opened the motorunit and measured the current to the motor while it was running. I measered 0.3A. Seems normal? Both motors are running smoothly. The motorcompartment was dry and clean. What can I do?

Running it next to the pool is not very telling as it will shut itself off in that time anyway. Do you have access to another power supply to try with it? It is possible, though unlikely, it is the problem. It is more likely the motor pack and a new one is costly. If you would like parts or a quote on a motor replacement, use the dolphin contact portion of our website at www.arrowpools.net.

My 6 year old LG above stove microwave is giving me an error message E-4 when I try to use reheat.

try unplugging the unit for about 5 min..... for the microwave to reset. Plug back in and try a microwaveable safe bowl with a little water for 30 sec. This may take care of the error message.

When the activation grace period (or evaluation trial period) is almost expired or ended, log on to Windows 7 desktop, and open a Command Prompt window (i.e. type Cmd in Start Search and hit Enter).
Type any of the following commands into the command prompt, and then hit Enter:
sysprep /generalize
slmgr.vbs –rearm
rundll32 slc.dll,SLReArmWindows
slmgr /rearm
Reboot Windows 7 to enjoy another 30 days of free usage without worrying about activation nor even need to crack Windows 7.

Rv furnace stopped working

Quick call the installer to see if it is still under warranty. There is something wrong if the motor is being replaced every other year. Most of the motors should be lubed with fan turbine oil and not 3 in 1, nor detergent containing oils. If the wrong oil is used, the bearings will go south in 1 to 2 years.

Kenmore elite stackable starts and after 30 seconds stops then after 2 minutes starts again with a huming sound

Your talking about the dryer right? If so, the blower is not working. Unit has "high temp" safeties built in to shut dryer off if overstepped. No blower to force air over heated coils, causes high temp causing unit to cease working until cooled down then it will start and stop again after another 30 sec.

I have a whirlpool dehumidifier (AD75UST0) and it appears to be 'dead'. is there a fuse or a reset?

No. I have had a AD75UST0 WHIRLPOOL Dehumidifier for several years. My unit slowly got less and less efficient, then it "stopped" coming on as if it was not working. Upon disassemble and inspection I found fan was no longer spinning. It tries to start then (actually the condenser coils begin to freeze, but no Fan) then it shuts down within 30 sec or so.

I am going to try a replacement Fan and fan start Capacitor (always replace in pairs).

REFRIGERATOR IS MAKING A BUZZING SOUND, not cooling

You have one of two problems going on. Your fan is spinning at hitting the sides. Or your compressor is shot which seems to be more the problem and even though it is cold the humming sound is a warning for you that the compressor is shot and it is more affordable to replace the fridge then the compressor. Sometimes compressor can cost more then the fridge.
