    Machine needs a new control board.

    ARGH

    They're going to check on how long it will take to get the part, and how much.

    Guess we'll be doing laundry at the in-laws for a bit. Good thing they're in Portugal until next month.

    I removed the snorkel because I don’t like how it fits. I removed the front flares because I’m reattaching them a different way

    I bid on yet another house the other day.
    20k over asking, and once again, got blown out of the water.
    Looked at one couple weeks ago that sold 100k over asking.
    Seeing a pattern here.
    Bidding wars continue. :frusty:

    Couple years ago, I watched a guy with a Porsche Cayenne attempting to pull a 18 ft sailboat out of the water.
    He was in the SALT water well over the rear bumper. It hurt to watch that.

    So the part plus labor, not worth fixing an almost 10 year old machine.

    Gonna buy a new one, and that's that. The Mrs has decided.

    Really sucks that appliances are so disposal these days. We ran into to the same thing a few months ago. We told the same thing 3 months ago. Our 6 year old washer needed a "transmission." Wasn't worth fixing. We bought our 1st house in 2000 and bought a 25 year old refurbed washer. It went 17 years after that! All mechanical, no computer. It was $200. Whatevs.
