[Kraftwerk]

While we are on the subject my beloved Miele front-loader ( the only worthy type of washer imo) stopped working.. it's a few years old. Could the fact that my Wife put about five towels in there and I swear the earth wobbled on its axis, have anything to do with it. Yes! It can. One of the shocks had broken .. the drum is suspended on tiny shocks, almost like a car but smaller and with plastic-parts. one of the plastic parts broke from the off kilter-weight, the drum swung down enough to hit something which hit something else and made a slight cut in a wire, thus cutting power. fixed the shock. soldered the wire. Thing works fine. Cost zero to repair, which is good because i really need to be spending all my excess money on car parts!
