| Its 1:30am, Im going on an over night ice fishing trip in 7 hours and I was washing my big sleeping bag....when it happened..... i knew it might but i never though it could be me.
Magic smoke.....from the washing machine!!! Oh god its morphed and found a way to cripple house hold appliances, my wife is sound asleep and I dont know if I should tell her tomorrow morning or bail all the water out of the washer and put it back together and have her think she did it.
Oh man......Im dead..... |

| YEAH MAN...DEAD SERIOUS!!
Im searching google like a mad man trying to find a user manual to seeif maybe the motor just went into a thermal protection or something.
**Update@ 2:15am**
So it says the motor will shut off until it reaches a safe operating temp so hopefully tomorrow morning it will work.

| blue smoke is usually a bad thing, not always terminal but always entertaining.
I am sure you didnt overload HER washer... | |

| On the plus side it's a good argument for future reference that dishes/laundry/stove should only be operated by HER!  | |

| Ahhhhh the motor just went into a thermal protect, and I dont blame it. That sleeping bag wet was about 150lbs, but its working good as new and I managed to put the sleeping bag through 3 spin cycles to get the water out of it and now I have a 90min wait for it to dry then Im off ice fishing until Saturday | |
