How much was the part? Why do you say hosed at the dealer?...can you explain..?

Part was $165.& labor was $180. +tax!! seems excessive for a washer switch....

I checked the labor when I got to work, pays around 2 hours, so at our labor rate at 85 an hour it would have been 170 just in labor.

I hear ya, if I didnt do it for a living I doubt I could foot the bill myself on some of the repairs I've seen.
