Getting Ready for the Repair
- Whether it is a front loader, a top loader with an agitator, or a top loader with an impeller

- The brand, model and serial number from the label inside the lid, around the door opening or on the back of the cabinet
What Byron Owners Should Know
Most washer calls in Byron come down to the same handful of parts: the drain pump and filter, the lid switch or door lock, the drive belt or coupler, the inlet valve and the suspension.
Minnesota has no state license for mechanical contractors or their workers; businesses contracting for gas, heating, cooling or refrigeration work file a mechanical contractor bond with the Department of Labor and Industry, and some cities require their own licenses or competency cards.

In Minnesota, you can check a license with the DLI License and Registration Lookup or report a problem to the Minnesota Attorney General's Office, Consumer Assistance.
