      Returning guest presenter Aaron Wilson is back for another exciting discussion. This time, we'll be talking about...
      The Science of CYA: How to Keep the Customer Safe, Document Your Work, and Not Get Sued
      We take on a lot of liability as appliance repair techs, and that can get us into sticky situations whether we've done anything wrong or not. Aaron will be teaching us all about how to navigate this side of the trade.
      We'll start by going over a tragic, real-world case study where a sloppy installation had lethal results, analyzing exactly how the installer's negligence caused this. From there, our scope will expand to what kind of safety precautions we should implement in our own work, both for the customer's sake and for our own.
      But even if you do everything perfectly, there's still the famous "technician witch hunt." Well, we'll also talk about how to deal with that by thoroughly documenting your work and putting yourself beyond legal reproach.
      A little about our guest, Aaron Wilson:
      Aaron has been in the appliance repair trade for about 15 years, starting out by doing installations before moving on to bigger and better things. He worked for C&W Services as a Sub-Zero authorized servicer for a time and thereafter joined Mr. Appliance of Highland Park in the Dallas area, where he worked for years as the lead technician and field service manager. These days, he's making sure that all the appliances of everyone's favorite fried chicken place are in tip-top shape as the Quality and Performance Consultant for the southwest branch of Chick-fil-A. In addition, he has taught many classes on refrigeration repair and advanced diagnostics, during which time he also developed training material for the soft skills side of things, which he is delighted to share with you. On top of all that he's a certified graduate of the Master Samurai Tech Academy, so he knows his stuff!

Bosch 300 series dryer, Model # WTVC3300US/10 (FD9004) 302269

I’d like to learn how to remove the bottom front panel so I can easily clean the bottom of the lint screen port and exhaust duct. The problem is that the bottom of the duct collects debris/lint that the screen doesn’t catch. There is a sensor located in this area that needs to be cleaned occasionally and although accessible, it gets coated with lint and erroneously alarms and even shuts down the dryer down as a fire safety feature.

Ah, the Bosch "Vision" dryer. I PMed you the download link to the manual. The overall procedure is on pg 22 but it calls procedures from previous pages. Pretty easy to sing along. :whistling:

I have a WTVC3300US/10 that is not heating. I've visually inspecting the outlook and plug and I've reset the breaker, but I haven't tested the outlet. I've vacuumed out the dryer vent and the duct (they were pretty bad). Dryer is still not heating. I was planning on replacing the heating element, but I can't figure out how.

... I haven't tested the outlet.

why not ?

should test for 120v & 240v at the Dryer Cord terminal Strip

Posted

Ok, the terminal strip has a black wire terminal, a white wire terminal, and a terminal with a red wire and a brown wire. The voltages are:

Black to White: 116 VAC

Black to Red/Brown: 233 VAC

White to Red/Brown: 117 VAC

Is it safe to assume that those are close enough to spec?

Posted

yes

I took the top of the dryer, but the heating element is not visible from the top. Can someone provide instructions? Thanks!
