Just replacing something is easy enough, but I use google a lot to troubleshoot my problems. Once I figure out what the problems, I figure out how to repair it.

For instance, my freezer kept icing up and dripping in to my fridge. I learned over the net that my drainage line was probably clogged, then learned that to fix it I needed to thaw out the whole unit and run a coat hanger down the tube to clear the blockage. Worked like a charm.


The toilet would sorta flush but the water wouldn't empty all the way out, just swirl around a bit. I figured out I needed a new pump in the tank, what kind would be most effective and how to install it. (It probably would have been easier to replace the whole toilet though. It was a pain in the ass.)

The internet has turned me into a regular Mr. Fix it.
