As repairman was moving dryer to his van I asked for the adapter that
my brother had purchased. Repairman looked at it and said the adapter
was suitable for a gas grill, not a dryer. Said that probably was why
there was no heat. Repairman would not return the dryer since it was
sold.

Shouldn't his troubleshooting have determined that the adapter was the
wrong type?


He is a thief taking advantage of brother. Make sure everyone knows
about him.

Mistake was not calling serviceman in the first place and have HIM
install the PROPER adapter.
When your brother installed the wrong adapter, was the serviceman made
aware that your brother had done the initial installation and had
installed the adapter???

Sure, the serviceman took advantage of your brother after the fact and
should have returned the drier, replaced the adapter with the right
one, and charged the appropriate amount for the service call and
repair instead of peing a prick about it.
