Reader Mail: Lori and Eric fixed their washer!

Posted by Brad Monday, September 7, 2009

From Lori:

Hi Brad,

I just wanted to tell you I printed out your directions to fix that darn f51 code.
(Note: the instructions Lori is referring to are in this post.) We've had our Cabrio just under 2 years and have been having the f51 for about 7months now. I happened upon your blog and was happy that others share in my problem, but then again got angry that so many folks are having the problem!! So, my husband and I decided to tackle it today. I'm pretty handy and my husband deals with buttons and levers as he is a commercial airline pilot. We followed your directions and had it knocked out in about 30 - 45 mins. I've washed about 7 loads since the repair and haven't had the error one time. Also, it may just be me but I think it is running better. The clothes seem to be rinsing and spinning better and are just damp at the end of the cycle instead of still wet. I appreciate your help and savings of the $575.00 that Appliance Doctor wanted to charge us!

My response:

Hi Lori and Eric!

I am very happy that you were able to fix your machine without having to pay for an expensive service call. But I can't take credit for anything more than regurgitating info someone else took the time to write. I have had a lot of positive feedback from people like you who have found Mr. Baxter's information helpful. I hope it proves to be a permanent fix.

Best Wishes,
Brad

Lori replied back with the following:

I did realize my mistake after I had already sent the email! If you have any contact with Mr. Baxter, please forward my email or post it!! I meant to add that all we did was unplug and plug the wires back into the housing( I can't remember what it's called now, lol) 3x. We didn't tackle the full repair. Since I have emailed you we still haven't had the error! :D
