Re: 4116 worth it?
My membership is pending approval on account of reports that I don't always buy the absolutely cheapest things and am occasionally, though very rarely, fooled by delusions of "quality"

Re: 4116 worth it?
They also pay cheapskate dues when things break after fixing something the cheapskate way and it don’t work and cost twice as much to fix. I know this, but I’m in good cheapskate standing and I figure I always will be.

Re: 4116 worth it?
Pulled out my members card the other day when the wash machine started acting up and could no longer operate correctly. Just changed out this $10 plastic splined hub for the drum and back in business. I'm so proud of myself that I bought a bunch of parts to put my 4016ps back together. Win for my wife and a win for me they say.

Re: 4116 worth it?
Evan, I received my cheapskate membership card by never owning a new washer or dryer. The previous washer took the pump out when chunks of rust dislodged from the drum. Our current machine cut a hook off of the suspension springs and is on its third set of agitator dogs and a clutch pack.
Now I have to convince M to let me bring a 4016AH to Ontario from Oklahoma on our next trip.

Re: 4116 worth it?
I assume you had to pull a gas dryer out of the way to work on the washer?? I see what looks like a uncapped gas line and got very nervous,. If that gas line is not being used, PLEASE go to the hardware store and get a proper cap for the end of that fitting Things could get real ugly if the valve gets bumped to the open position Don't be a cheapskate on thisJancoe wrote: ↑Wed Dec 07, 2022 8:49 pm Pulled out my members card the other day when the wash machine started acting up and could no longer operate correctly.

Re: 4116 worth it?
Good work Evan. I replaced the pump relay on the control board in our Samsung front load washer for $13 and got another year out of it. Unfortunately either the rear drum bearing or the spider assembly that holds the drum broke. The repair would have been $70 to $200 minimum + a full days work to remove, disassemble and rebuild the drum. I told the wife it was time for a new set. She didn't complain. I did buy her some good GE units. The Samsung's were free from my wife's brother. We got 6 years out if them.
Anyways the relays are the block boxes on the top left. I had to dremel the rear cover off and remove the silicone potting material to do the repair. After testing I did silicone it back up.

You would get moved up in the cheapskate club Dave if you used their gas too.DavidBarkey wrote: ↑Thu Dec 08, 2022 6:05 am I got my member ship in the cheapskate club when they found out I don't own a weed wacker .

Re: 4116 worth it?
No worries Gordy. Line was capped. Picture was taken after I just got done testing the washer and was in the process of putting the dryer back when i stopped for a pic. I'm no cheapskate when it comes to my family's well being.Gordy wrote:I assume you had to pull a gas dryer out of the way to work on the washer??
