After a few days of thinking about it I realized that I should get her a new dryer even though I fixed it. So we bought a new washer / dryer and she is happy now.
Great report Smokin’Joe. I want to pass it along to my DILs.
Happiness is a washer and dryer in working condition. One winter — when my 4 kids were small, BOTH the washer AND dryer needed repair. What a fun few days that was!!
And I NEVER leave my dryer unattended.
