Even my outside security motion detector light over my back outside stairs went kaput.
The appliance repairman did get here and fix my dryer. $13 for the cost of the actual part. $104 total with service call and labor.Took the guy less than 10 minutes to fix it, after checking it with a meter. I told them what went out when I had called, but of course they always double check to make sure.

My husband was an electrician, still has all of his meters and tools. He knew what was wrong with it, and so did I, as I had told him it was the button switch inside the door. He refused to lift a finger or offer to pay to get it fixed. So, if I didn't have enough money to fix it, I would have had to walk to my middle daughters in this bitter cold to use her dryer, and being sick on top of it, or go to a laundromat to dry the clothes. I will not rant further, but I am absolutely fed up with the way things are here, and am biding my time for now.
