Toot

When IT troubleshooting skills meet hardware hacking skills meet home appliance repair, you end up with $40 on replacement board components, 3 hours of research, 8 hours of physical troubleshooting, 4 hours with the old man probing said board at the component level to make a janky schematic, 10 hours of imposter syndrome, 5 days waiting for items to ship literally from the other side of the country, janky things with mains voltage...

All leading to this: a 10K resistor out of an arduino learning kit in a wiring harness to emulate a (now confirmed) busted sensor to confirm that said sensor was the cluprit.

Was it worth it? #hellyes Paying some guy $120/hour doesn't give you this sort of high that can last you a lifetime.
