  • Can you please tell me what the point of replacing the "Green" spot stat was if your not going to wire it up?

  • @MrJcmental None. On this model it wasn't wired in the first place. But we just wanted to show how to replace both stats as on most models both stats are actually wired.

  • I heart cute gay British men

  • Look he's holding those parts in his bare hands!! he should be wearing surgical gloves. ask Serostern, he'll back me up.

  • @Serostern  Damn, there go my feelings again getting hurt. "also" if I worked on anything of yours I'd just overcharge you. you seem like the type that would be easily taken advantage of. LOL!!

  • @huzzler631 As for the reason I watch this video - because even if I know my way around appliances I could still learn a trick here or a new way of doing something there.

    A power driver will keep spinning after the bit slips, before you have the reaction time to stop. This strips screws.

    He also uses the wrong bit (a PZ2 for a PH2 screw) - wich makes the bit slip and damage the screw.

    If he used a manual driver he would not slip as much.

  • @huzzler631 No, forget the ziptie torque wrench. The entire point of the ziptie is to tidy up wires and keep them from rubbing against metal parts. If you pull too tight you damage the wires and that is the opposite of the purpose of the damn tie.

    Mind you I am one of the field workers, and that is why I take pride in leaving a good machine behind me after I finish a job.

    Also, I would hate having you touch anything of mine, it would most likely end up broken.

  • @Serostern yeah, get a zip tie torque wrench. oh, don't forget about the "real" screwdriver. and never, I mean never use a box cutter to cut a zip tie. I'd hate to have you touch anything of mine. I bet your one of those guy's that stand over a guy slobbering on his shoulder. if your so damn smart why are you watching this video.  DUMMY!!!

  • thast a wierd dryer!

  • thanks
