      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:
      Click here to go to the forum topic with the registration link. If you're interested, register now. Arrive a couple minutes early to make sure your connection is working. Set a reminder for yourself for this workshop so you don’t miss it.  And check out past workshops here: https://appliantology.org/announcement/33-webinar-recordings-index-page/

The above disher washer will be ten years old in April so if the control needs to be replaced is it worth fixing?  Ten years is the life of a dishwasher I heard.

Here's a photo of the inside of the control panel.  The inside ribbon looks burnt or shorted out where the black discolor is on the ribbon that goes to the control board in the second photo. Could the burnt ribbon and control buttons, because they are permanently connected it looks like to me, then I need to be replace the whole control board withe the attached ribbon? The main board looks fine, no fried or melted parts.  I think the ribbon to the control board just wore out over time and got too hot from the dishwasher.   PS  I couldn't add photos. I tried to make smaller. Didn't work.
