      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:

Just an old GE SxS, mechanical control and defrost timer - nothing special there. Stuck in defrost, not defrosting, bad control thermostat etc.

Follow-up. Call was from Maine snowbird. Arrived to their winter home after 2 year absence 4 days ago. Turned refer on, started cooling just fine. Made ice, then ice started melting, called me late yesterday, could not make call until this morning. Found unit running, temps 30 in freezer & 50 in fridge. Felt cabinet, was almost hot. Immediately pulled unit from wall. Condensor fan jammed with fridge insulation, condensor caked in dust fuzz. unpluged unit, Cleaned coil, cleared fan, cleaned fan blades. Plugged back in temps at back wall 29 & dropping. Picked up tools, made bill, just charged service call, one last back wall temp check 20 degrees.

Wupped that puppy. Will call customer in morning to see how full ice bucket is, love my job.
