RETIRED Marlboro Outwit the West Funny Farm

Hi all,

I started this thread for anyone who wants to come here for lite discussion, jokes, and just general discussion and fun.

Everyone is welcome!

I was thinking that maybe it would be helpful to keep the original thread to a bit more of a serious discussion of the clues and answers.

This would make the original thread more useful to those seeking serious information and clues without having to read through hundreds of extraneous messages.

So, I hope it catches on !

So pop a beer and pull up a chair and relax !

Wish I knew what to do. It could be a number of things. A loose belt or wire even. All I would know to do is unplug it, take it aprt laying it out in order that you pulled it off and clean it looking for burned marks or oddities. Then put it back together and see. If that doesnt work it might be cheaper to go to the local used appliance center and get a new one for $100
Thanks. I'll figure it out. Thank gawd for the www! I was just hoping it'd be so obvious that someone could just say, "Oh yeah! Replace the blahblahblah." I am off to bed. G'night all. hug

Uh, yeah,,,that's not good. I've had one of those Januarys. Maybe that's what brought it to a head...it's February, dang it!

Somebody here could probably help you better with the details, bot the only time I've been in your situation was when I went down to FL. All I had to do was push a button on their router and I was on. No need for a PW. Oh and you may be thinking of jules w/the UPS delivery tomorrow. Jeeze, I hope it's not that foolish magnet! I've got one of those coming, too. Can't wait to tell my UPS guy what he delivered. laugh out loud

OK! I need a man (or a knowledgeable woman)! I mentioned to my son the other day that the knob on the dryer (the dry, less dry setting) wasn't moving. The dryer just kept going. Then I realized it was because it was taking the clothes that long to dry. It's not getting hot. Can anyone tell me where to start my research? Thermostat, heater thingy? My washer was dead for about a month, when I figured I had nothing to lose trying to fix it myself. I did and was really proud of myself. I've discovered that sometimes, you just gotta be in the mood for that defecation though, y'know? Sorry this is so long.
Batty, make sure the lint hasn't backed up in the exhaust hose AND pipe leading out of your house. Major cause of house fires. Our old dryer burned a hole in the side of it, almost lost everything. It was doing the same thing you are describing before we discovered it. We bought a thing that you attach to an electric drill and it cleans it all out. You will need to remove the vent cover outside and check it too.

you didn't say gas or electric
I find calling the appliance parts store usually helps, if the 1st one doesn't know I call another
they sell the replacement parts and usually know what goes wrong have your modal and serial # ready
