Cheap and Easy! GE/Hotpoint Washer Repair 
2000-05-22
The book leaves out electrical theories already found in other books but clearly and directly touches on basics - the "need to knows" to get the job done. The book is specific to a brand and model. So, all other things found in other makes and not applicable to this brand/model are left out. This saves money and paper and time reading the manual.
The washer operation functions are clearly explained and down-to-earth. Followed with types of problems that could arise. After that, one can reference the model/type of machine, the problem then possible causes and solutions.
The book takes a reasonable recommendation whether to repair, or to make a major replacement or just buying a replacement washer if the job is beyond the abilities of the average do-it-yourselfer or if expensive specialize tools are needed and not deemed cost effective anymore. Of course, the do-it-yourselfer makes the final decision whether to repair or replace based on cost, time, convenience, pride in making things work and/or other factors. The book is filled with practical tips with and "s" - things that you learn by being creative with what's available at hand when trying to fix things.
If you want to save lots of money with your washer problems, this book is a good start and a good investment.
The book could have been better if there was a reference made to a manufacturer's service/repair manual (if any) or other books for things beyond the scope of this book.
