      All Appliantology tech members are invited to join in this workshop on all things Appliantological. 
      We have a special session planned for this one. Instead of the usual Show 'n Tell on a technical topic, we're going to post tech sheets in the comments to this Calendar Event (scroll down to see what's posted so far) and ask specific questions that can only be answered by reading the tech sheet. If you at least try to answer the questions beforehand, you'll get a lot more out of it. The tech sheet and the questions are posted in the comments section below.
      Your mission, if you should choose to accept it, is to check out the questions for each one and try to answer them ahead of time. Then come to the Dojo to see how well you did! 
      Who: This workshop is only available to tech members at Appliantology.
      When: Saturday, April 27 @10:00 AM Eastern Time.
      Where: Online via Zoom
      How:

Kenmore 401.88523001 made by Samsung ...

What's wrong with it ?

It turns out to be a lemon (Sears is replacing it). The first thought the repair guy had was the thermostatic fuses, but didn't take the unit down until they came in the mail. They turned out not to be the problem. He also replaced the circuit board. When he was reassembling it, it was working, then it wasn't.

We found a loose connector. We had it back up and working. A couple of hours later it died again.

I know there is the circuit diagram in the unit, I was just wondering about whether there were any diagnostic instructions.

I'm less worried now, since the unit will be replaced. I suspect that the unit has at least one more loose connector.
