In the End I fixed it buy eliminating the rewiring about 4 feet of orange wire.

Gold Colored Stone Reliable Coin Operated Commercial 1980ish ? Gas Dryer.
My tenant said after 2 loads it quits. They unplug for a couple hours and can do another load. I was there when it quit... I pushed the starter button and it the drum turned about a quarter turn then quit. I hit the starter and thing then the light went off so I could not test again.

Side Note. I have owned these old Maytags for 3 Decades, they are the most reliable machines in the world for my money.

11 AnswersOther - Cars & Transportation9 years agoCan police damage my property all they want?
I am a landlord. I have one building with 4 apartments.
A was mad at B because B kept asking them to be quiet after midnight. So A calls the police and tells them B is selling drugs. The police covered both doors and the big 42 year old double pane picture window then went into attack mode breaking locks, knobs, door casings. B reported they found 1/2 ounce of marijuana. I have $5,000.00 deductable. The damage is about $1000. My question is, why would the police break my big no escape window ? There were 2 smaller less expensive ones to the left and right. I can only imagine one officer saying to the other, "The law is on our side, hey ya'll watch this" ! ! I am the victim here. I suspect there is nothing I can do. Anyone know any recourse ? ( Tenant(s) have -0- money ).

1 AnswerChevrolet1 decade ago1997 Suzuki DR350SE will not turn over. Electric Start only model.?
motorcycle fell on its right side. The starter button does nothing. When I jump the solenoid the starter will turn over just fine. The side stand kill switch seems ok. The neutral seems right on. Ive tried it with the clutch in and out. with the side stand up and down. Ive turned the kill switch on and off a bunch of times. I took off the seat and side panels and checked all connections. There is too many safety features for me. Something wont let the starter button work. Need a trouble shooter smarter than myself.
