    Dryer takes long time to dry

    I use the brush/rod tools also, and even disconnect the dryer from the vent and use a leaf blower to blow all the lint out. Works great !

    Can I fix this?

    I had to replace my front concrete steps last year because of spalling. I did seal the new steps with three coats of concrete sealer. Can't hurt, might help.

    Ice build up, bottom of freezer

    I have a Maytag french door fridge, Model # MFI2665XEM6 with freezer on the bottom. I am getting a small amount of water on the floor in front. Further investigation shows a thin layer of ice on the bottom of the freezer. Any input on how to resolve this is appreciated !

    Exterior caulk wears off frequently

    I would think a heat gun would soften it and make it easier to remove.

    Ice Maker Issue

    Found ice in the blue funnel/chute which may be preventing water from refilling the tray ? what could be causing this ? I did remove the ice plug.

    Ice Maker Issue

    New Issue. The ice maker only makes about 1/3 of a bin of ice, then stops. I looked inside, and found the lever was not down, and I could not lower it . went back to check later it was down ?

    Ice Maker Issue

    Thanks, Sparky. Evidently That 15 minute defrost worked, because when I returned home after a couple of hours, I had new ice in the bin. This fridge is 10 years old, and has been trouble free. Typically, how long do you need to defrost it ?
