What is your YouTube success story?

I've used YouTube as a reference for a few years now. It has saved me hundreds of dollars (that may be a conservative figure) over that time & I'm amazed that you can pretty much find anything & everything with just a short search.

Recently, my Samsung dryer would not heat up. Service for that type of appliance in my area is all but impossible....so why not "YouTube" it? Sure enough, in dependable fashion, I was stepped through the process and repaired the dryer (blown element).

I find, what makes it so damn useful, is almost every make/model/etc. of any car, appliance, whatever is available to viewers. My initial search was on-line and landed on a repair parts website. It listed thermal fuses as the most likely culprit....and had a generic Samsung dryer repair video. As it turned out, my fuses were good, the element was bad. The video from the website left a little to be desired with that....so I turned to YouTube. Some dude posted my exact model number dryer and how to change out the element. I never would have been able to sucessfully tackle the problem without that video. I should send him some money for the help!!!

What is your YouTube success story (or failure :covri:)???
