Control Board Troubleshooting Workshop: Thermador Wall Oven - Excerpt
A lot of techs lose their heads when it comes to control boards. This leads to the classic PCM behavior of "throw a part at it and hope it works." But isn't there a better way of troubleshooting computer-controlled appliances?
Of course there is. With a concrete and logical troubleshooting plan like the Ten Step Tango, you can troubleshoot any appliance with a control board with confidence. In fact, in many ways, a control board being present makes it easier to do your troubleshooting.
How? That's exactly what we show in this latest webinar recording. Topics include:
Using the Ten Step Tango to structure every troubleshoot and avoid costly blunders
Identifying AC and DC loads and switches on a schematic
Identifying explicit, implicit, and omitted specs in documentation and performing your tests accordingly
Locating EEPs to make convenient tests with minimal disassembly
...and more!

TROUB
troubleshooting-and-repairing-a-no-go
In this epic journey into appliance repair excellence, Samurai Appliance Repair Man gives you a glimpse into how *real* appliance technicians think and use the schematic to analyze and troubleshoot electric circuits with minimum disassembly and maximum bad-assery. Being able to do this kind of real-world troubleshooting only comes with understanding how basic electricity and circuits work.
Think this is too technical? What’s the alternative? The alternative is exactly what plagues the appliance repair trade today: pattern recognition and Parts Changing Monkey (PCM) “repairs”. That’s where you replace a part and hope to get lucky. Samurai don't play that.
There’s only one way to be able to do this kind of analysis and that is by learning what everyone who goes into the electrical trades learns, whether they are electricians or radar technicians or appliance technicians: Ohm’s Freaking Law.
I often get asked by PCMs, “Why do I need to know math just to fix appliances?”
Because electricity in a circuit is not “visual.” You can’t watch it and see how it works, like you would a machine. Nor is it intuitive. It operates according to specific but simple mathematical laws that describe the relationship between voltage, current, resistance, and power. While you won’t typically do actual Ohm’s Law calculations in the field, you need to KNOW and UNDERSTAND Ohm’s Law so that it becomes part of how you think when you analyze a schematic.
Would you like to be able to do this on any appliance you’re working on? We teach all this and more in the Master Samurai Tech Fundamentals course.

TROUB
troubleshooting-a-kenmore-electrolux
This dual fuel range was flashing an F30 error code. The tech sheet says this points to a problem with the RTD (temperature probe). A parts changing monkey reading only the error code description without looking at the schematic replaced the RTD only to have the exact same problem: F30 error code. Watch how a real technician uses both the tech sheet and the schematic to accurately diagnose the problem without guesswork.

TROUB
troubleshooting-samsung-refrigerators
Samsung has developed something of a reputation in the tech community, and not necessarily the most flattering one. Many techs consider the brand to be overly-complicated and impossible to troubleshoot, and some refuse to work on these machines at all. But is this attitude really warranted?
All appliances everywhere work on the same principles, and Samsung is no exception. The idea that Korean appliances like Samsung and LG somehow work differently is pure mythology, and this short excerpt from one of our many award-winning, history-making webinar recordings will begin to show you why.

VOLTA
voltage-is-the-difference-in-potential
Why does it take two leads to measure voltage? Because voltage is always the DIFFERENCE in potential between TWO POINTS. We don't talk about 120 VAC "out there" somewhere. We talk about the voltage difference between two points or, said another way, the voltage at a point with reference to (wrt) another point. That's a fundamental, building block concept in basic electricity that many appliance techs do not understand.

HELPI
helping-a-pcm-troubleshoot-a-no-spark
A Parts Changing Monkey (PCM) attempted to fix a GE gas cooktop that was not sparking on any burner by simply replacing two parts: the transformer and the spark module. No troubleshooting, just shooting from the hip, blindly replacing parts and hoping to get lucky.
Well, he didn't get lucky.
And besides, real technicians don't rely on luck to get things fixed. We rely on knowledge and the skillful application of that knowledge to troubleshoot and identify the problem.
In this video, I show you how a professional technician would approach the problem using a systematic troubleshooting approach.
