Refrigerator Repair- Replacing the Drawer Slide Rail - Right Side (Whirlpool Part # 67002191) - Video
What will it take to get manufacturers to support their products instead of leaving consumers with disposable televisions and refrigerators or mobile phones (and digital music players) with irreplaceable batteries?
A Magnavox TV/DVD combo that cost Frank Lusk of Westbrook $300 at Target in August 2010 stopped working last September, just beyond the one-year warranty.
"A local TV repair shop returned it to me after about three weeks, saying they could not get repair parts," says Lusk.
He checked with Magnavox, then brought the set to a licensed repair shop. Three days later, the shop said it, too, could not get repair parts. For that, Lusk paid a $40 estimate fee.
Lusk then called Magnavox again, which told him, 'tis true, no repair parts. Too bad it wasn't under warranty, Magnavox told him, because it could have been exchanged for a new television.
Lusk thought he was out $300 until he read a magazine story on buying an HDTV that suggested paying for the set with a credit card rather than buying an extended warranty. (Some credit cards double a manufacturer's warranty, up to a year.)
So Lusk checked with his credit-card company, which did offer extended-warranty coverage, and filed a claim in late December. Two weeks later, he received a check for $317, which included tax.
But he won't buy another Magnavox.
"The only recourse we have as consumers in a situation like this," he says, "is to take our business elsewhere. I bought a new TV, but it was not a Magnavox and I did not buy it at Target."
Let's call it the No-Buy List. Lusk's drawing one up: He's not buying whatever Magnavox is selling.
We've all got a candidate for the No-Buy List. Here's one from TBL, who bought a rechargeable Dirt Devil broom (model MBV2030) in October 2008 for quick-cleaning around a litter box. The broom worked fine until several months ago when the batteries drained almost immediately.
Finally, it was time for a replacement battery pack. A search online revealed none, either from Royal, which owns the Dirt Devil brand, or an aftermarket manufacturer.
What?
Last week, TBL contacted Royal's corporate office, which acknowledged the company does not make a replacement.
"They are manufactured as part of the machine," says a Royal corporate representative. "We don't even have a part number for the batteries."
A rechargeable broom with irreplaceable batteries?
I was dumbfounded. (My neat-freak cat, Chesty Morgan, was devastated.)
Royal's idea of customer service is to offer duped owners of the MBV2030 rechargeable broom a 30 percent discount on another vacuum at the company's website.
Then what? Call back in three years about another machine that doesn't work and can't be fixed?
No thanks.
You know what you deserve, Royal? A permanent spot on my No-Buy List.

AM PM Appliance Repair Now Offers their Services with a Discount
In times of economic hardship, "do it yourself" is a tempting mantra for many homeowners with dripping faucets, running toilets, leaky windows or sticky locks. The savings can add up when you don't have to call a repair person, especially for things like painting, plumbing and appliance repair, said Ken Collier, editor-in-chief of The Family Handyman. "Parts are a small part of the cost. Labor is huge," he said. And if things go wrong? With a small job, Collier said, "Worst case, you have to hire a pro and eat some crow."
There are some home repairs, of course, that an unskilled homeowner should avoid, among them "situations where having heavy equipment makes the job go much better, especially outdoors," Collier said.
Avoid jobs where you could injure yourself or damage property.
Chris Long, a member of the Home Depot do-it-yourself team, recommends calling an expert to replace a tub or shower valve, or do more involved electrical work. And while "any reasonably careful person can hang drywall," Collier said, taping it to cover the seams and joints is "very much an art where a practiced hand makes a huge difference."
But many other household repairs and projects can be tackled by a do-it-yourselfer who takes the time to learn what's required.
David Frank of Libertyville, Ill., does just about all his own home repairs and remodeling -- "from electric to plumbing to concrete. Any of it can be done." He started working on his first house, a fixer-upper he bought in college, to save money.
"I had to learn to do it, or it wasn't going to get done," he said. Over the years, he has taught himself by reading books, watching home-improvement TV shows and talking to experts.
Besides the money saved, there's "definitely a sense of accomplishment" in doing the work himself, he said.
His advice to beginners: Use common sense, take your time and read as much as you can. "The Internet is unbelievable," he said.
When taking on a project, begin by finding out where in your home you turn off the water and gas, and how the circuit breakers work. If you need a professional to show you, hire one.
You'll also need a good set of tools. Collier recommends such things as a 20-ounce straight claw hammer, a utility knife, linesman's pliers, a flexible putty knife, a four-in-one screwdriver, a cordless drill-screwdriver, a 25-foot measuring tape and an adjustable crescent wrench. Add to that a plunger, groove-joint pliers and duct tape.
If you're going to do any electrical work, be sure to have a voltage sniffer. "Electricity is scary stuff, and a voltage sniffer is a really safe way to know everything is off," Collier said.
There's a wealth of material online, including videos for the do-it-yourselfer.
Even unskilled homeowners should be able to do some basic appliance repairs, Collier said, such as changing a dryer belt.
And as winter approaches, homeowners can do a lot of weatherizing themselves, including adding insulation, and applying adhesive-backed, foam weather stripping to prevent cold air from seeping in around doors and windows.
Other jobs that a do-it-yourselfer can learn include repairing drywall, replacing a deadbolt, or installing a new light fixture or ceiling fan.
Plumbing repairs also can be accessible even to the novice.
"A toilet is really a very simple mechanism and the parts are readily available to change out," Lipford said.
First, the cause of the problem has to be diagnosed. Find information online, in books, or talk to a worker at your hardware store.
If the toilet is running, for example, one way to figure out what's going on is to add a little food dye to the water in the tank, said Long, of Home Depot. If the water in the bowl turns the same color, the flapper valve is likely the problem. The flapper seals the tank, then lifts to allow water to flow into the bowl when the toilet is flushed. If the seal isn't tight, water will leak into the bowl.
It could be that the chain connecting the flapper to the handle is too long or too short. Adjusting that could fix the problem. Or, it could be the flapper itself.
In most cases, the flapper snaps out and you can easily replace it with a new one. But first remember to turn off the water to the toilet. It's also a good idea to bring the old part to your hardware store to make sure you're purchasing a compatible new one.
