Original plan was to have it repaired by a appliance repair person. I called a company to come out and assess the problem. The repairman identified that I needed a new motor. I went out to the appliance website and saw that the part he spoke of cost only $39.99 yet I received an estimate in the amount of $270. I also saw the instructional video was also available. I said no to the repair man and yes to my husband for the 2nd time. Once for I do and once for I am volunteering your services. smile
