I hopped on an appliance parts website and ordered her a new lid switch for $15. One YouTube video later and her washer worked like new.
many youtube videos are scams/clickbait though and/or present un-true or outdated information
even if i have the spare part and the replacement part (i probably ordered the wrong one, how the heck am i supposed to know whether Knita CX-2035 is compatible with my Radover DishWasher i13s, the manual says i need Knita CX-2034 but they don’t produce them anymore, but the Knita website says that CX-2035 is the “successor part”), i assume i either lack a screwdriver or a voltage meter or a fucking welding machine to weld the oven open and shut again. And if i manage to weld it shut correctly, i will forever live in anxiety about accidentally having used toxic chemicals inside the oven which now continue to evaporate each time that i heat it up, slowly poisoning my food and me which will only become clear decades later when i start developing mysterious diseases which might have their origin in me using aluminum wires when i should have used stainless chromated copper wires.
Dude, you can find replacement videos for pretty much any part in any appliance that are just some dude walking you through it because they just did it. I’m not sure where you’re seeing scam appliance repair guide videos.
The way you buy parts is you go to a part seller webpage where you enter the model number they’ll have a parts diagram and you select the part you need.
There’s pretty much zero chance that welding would be required to change a part.
