This is the kind of post that makes this place worth it.
Can confirm, the cheap part is the one that fails. Replaced mine twice before reading this.
Yep, same here. The second time is always faster.
The "what went wrong" section is the most useful part of this. More people should do that.
Glad it helped.
The embedded video is clearer than the official service manual, which is a little embarrassing for the manufacturer.
Unplug it. Always. Takes two seconds and the worst case otherwise is a trip to the ER.
Tried this over the weekend and it worked first time. Thanks for writing it up properly.
Yep, same here. The second time is always faster.
Question: do you need to disconnect power for this or is it safe to leave it plugged in?
Glad it helped.
