I see at least it is under warranty, but boy they should last a bit longer *sigh*

Have you noticed that the washing machine always breaks down when you've got a backlog of washing to do, never on the last load?

nope its dead. everything has to be replaced. The circuit board is burnt right out but he can't see why. which means he has to replace the lot, pump etc otherwise it will just do it again.

And he has to order all the parts.

it's driving me mad. lol

*hugs* A couple of weeks ago it rained... and rained and rained and rained. I really couldn't do any washing because the atmosphere was so steamy and damp the clothes wouldn't dry quick enough.

In the winter it is easier because we then have a fire going to dry the clothes, but wet and humid not a good combination.

I hope they fix it soon. I feel your pain.
