Dryer update

For those of you who heard about our dryer woes (it wasn't igniting, just pumping gas into the dryer - not effective and definitely not safe!) no more worries! It has been fixed by the hubby and I!

How we did it:
  1. I took apart the back of the dryer
  2. Vacuumed all the lint out of it
  3. Looked it over with a flashlight
  4. Got frustrated and gave up
  5. Then Bob helped me take apart the FRONT of the dryer (didn't even need to bother with the back)
  6. Figured out how it worked
  7. Did some trouble shooting and testing
  8. Found it was working again
  9. Put it back together
Resulting in a fixed dryer! In moving it all around we must have bumped something back into place, or maybe the cleaning helped. Either way, we just saved ourselves several hundred dollars so I'm happy.
