The plot thickens!!!!!!!!!
> >
OK, so GE called my house, and spoke to my wife, she told them to talk to me, so they called me here at my desk, they dropped the charge for the motor, its free, and they will only charge between 100 to 150 bucks for the labor to replace the blower motor.
Once I told them that its not even a GE dryer, its made by LG, he said “can you please hold for one minute”
He came back with the offer!!!!! So they are shipping the part to my house and the tech will come towards the end of next week when im off.
I guess they don't want it to get out that GE is really LG!

OK, the repairman from GE came today, he took the dryer apart (took about 1 hour, the replaced the blower motor, and put the machine back together. All together he was here about 2 hours, I only paid less than 100 for all his work, the blower was free, after all the complaining I did to GE.
Also the motor has a sticker on it that says "Made By LG" He told me that all the GE stuff is made by LG now. And also all the Sears Kenmore stuff is made by LG.
And now my wife is happy that her dryer is working again.

Only the Kenmore models that start with model#795 are made by LG, Thats it.
The Kenmore models that start with 106/110/665 are made by Whirlpool.
Glad its working good again.
