HOLY BALLS!

How many of you know what a lid switch is for your washing maching??? 
Well.... I didn't, but I do now!  :-)
I called for an estimate on service and it was going to be $40 for the part, plus $75 for them to come out.
I decided to do it!  That's right, ME. 
I looked up the part number (thank you internet)
and watched a couple YouTube videos
 (no way I could have done it without guidance!)

This is the inside of a washing machine

CraZy ugh? I thought it was! 
Tracey asked me NOT to do this while she was home... and I didn't! 


This is a picture of the BROKEN lid switch.



Where the lid switch is - it switches your machine - fill up - wash - spin - rinse, ect.. It's a necessary part!


The most difficult part was getting the casing BACK on.
It works and I don't need to click the "switch" with a screw driver!!!  

I'm without a doubt SUPER PROUD of my capabilities!!
Who knew I could be so handy? 
I will one day get to use a sledge hammer..may not be tomorrow,
but someday!  lol..lol..

  2. Wow! I'm impressed Lorrie. Kudos for being so self-sufficient. Next time we have an appliance break down I'll give you a call.
