The washing machine quit agitating. 9 bucks later, fixed.

Not so easy was the drain hose, as crazy as that sounds. I guess while moving it around, the plastic drain hose sprung a leak. All the appliance parts stores were closed by this time, so I went to Lowes and got a generic one. Had to cut part of the old one off, run the new one up through that piece, silicone the crap out of it, just so the curved neck piece would fit onto it. Prolly gonna leak. :lol: :lol: :lol:

Always something that needs fixed around here. I'm one of those people that refuses to pay someone to do something I can do myself. It makes for learning the hard way sometimes, but I love to tinker with stuff.
