Showed up, didn’t do anything other than push the power button. Charged $95 for that. Gave me a quote for the wrong thing. Had to call someone else to come out who tested the board, explained the code, diagnosed the issue correctly.

I had a great experience. Jim quickly returned my call and was able to squeeze me in between appointments. They were able to fix my washer in just a few minutes. The cost of repair was very reasonable for travel time, labor and a small part. I would highly recommend.
