Our five year old "commercial technology" washing machine stopped working today. Thanks to DYI repair videos, I was able to run a diagnostic to see the error code and identify the clutch slider as the culprit (of course the manufacturer's website was of no use here).

I could have ordered a replacement part online for about 50 $CAD but the part design is so bad that I preferred repairing the broken part instead.

The steel ring around the slider is held with only six small plastic "pegs" about 3mm in diameter. Those pegs broke off from the repeated actuation of the clutch during normal operation (electromagnet exerting an axial force on the steel ring). I drilled small holes in the plastic slider in which I self-tapped 3x4mm set screws (aka grub screws). I slid the steel ring back on and backed out the screws so they would engage in the ring.

Endlich ein Beitrag der deutschen Presse zum Thema Cyberdeck-Trend. Falls es nicht nur beim Trend bleibt, könnte es der Startpunkt eines neuen Cyberfeminismus sein.
