If something breaks and there is no warranty and cost of repairs are to much. Repair it yourself. You don't know how? What you gonna do break it again?
Unless it's something dangerous and you don't know what you're doing. Don't want to get a garage door spring to the face
Microwave repairs are a good bad advice to give to people you don't like as well
You mean to the brain
Insane how much energy that is
garage doors are pretty heavy
The trick is knowing what's dangerous. I feel that a lot of people I've met have a poor handle on this :D
Very good advice. There is probably someone on YouTube that had the same problem and filmed their repair. Ive repaired an AC unit and a garbage disposal this way.
I recently changed out the alternator in my car by watching/following YouTube videos! Saved me $500. Never touched a car engine in my life before then.
How I got into phonerepairs. Ovens , cars, and minor plumbing to name a few things
