Do-It-Yourself Story

My machine is 25 years old and has been extremely reliable. I noticed my clothes weren’t as dry after a load sat before putting into dryer. Then I noticed a drip from water inlet into drum that would not stop. After googling it I decided to try to fix myself. Initially I removed water valve and tried CLR since we do have hard water, but it did not work. So I ordered new valve and bought new water level pressure switch hose too as long as machine was accessible. I was glad I did because that was clogged half-way. I ended up buying new water supply hoses too. Total repair was about $150. Be careful threading supply hoses onto plastic valve as miss threads do damage it. This site is fantastic for easily finding parts for appliances and the videos that accompany are great. I have fixed my dryer and oven with their help in the past.
