I went over to Lisa’s house today and we hung out for a while. Her 14 month old, front loading LG washer is broken and she can’t wash any clothes. It is two months out of warranty and she and her husband turned it over and took the back off to find that a plastic part that connects with a metal gear is worn out.
Duh.
I have no idea why anyone would think that this is a good idea. I mean plastic and metal don’t work well together. The plastic will always either break or wear out. Anyway, they ordered the $99.00 part and are waiting for it to come.
Meanwhile, I took home her load of beach towels that were hanging out on the fence to dry when it started raining and were in danger of souring.
(Have I ever mentioned the humidity down here? If things don’t get dried fairly soon, they sour and then mildew.)
Anyway, the stuff had been being rained on since yesterday so it all needed washing anyway, as mud had splashed up on it.
I got home, took a load of my own towels out of the washer and tossed them in the dryer and turned it on.
Nothing.
It started to go, the lights dimmed for a second and then nothing.
Wait a minute… the lights dimmed? This can’t be good. I tried again and it happened again. Over and over.
Finally, I held the knob in the on position and the stupid dryer started. It ran for the allotted amount of time and did not dry a thing. Not even a little bit.
It did not get remotely warm.
Shit.
Meanwhile I attempted to wash Lisa’s towels. My washer is making a bizarre noise that can only mean bad things.
Did I mention that the central A/C is blowing and not shutting off, yet not cooling at all? At all?
AT ALL?
Will someone just wake me up before we all go to the poor house.

Sounds like it’s time for some new appliances. Lucky you. 🙂

I swear the appliances all talk to each other. One goes bad, and all the rest decide to follow.
And they’re psychic…they know when it’s the worst time for you to have a malfunctioning appliance. Like the last time we visited Texas and arrived at one daughter’s house desperately needing clean underwear – and her washer had just stopped working the day before we arrived.

Could you have lost part of the power to your house? This happened to us. We lost the part of the power (a certain amp/voltage/whatever) and our drier stopped heating and our stove woudn’t work. Just a thought.

My washer packed up last week… bought a secondhand one, and it’s leaking. Repair guy coming tomorrow.
This morning, Margo’s washer looks like it’s packing up, too.
WHAT is going on!?!

I’m wincing while reading this for fear that it’s catching.
I hope it’s all fixed now!!! Even having a great excuse not to do laundry gets old after a few days of smelling stinky clothes in the house.
