    You revealed one of my secrets. When even the 90° tool doesn't work I use the micro wrench. I usually use a larger (like double sided) bit instead of the short ones to make it easier. If its difficult I use my other hand to apply pressure. Also another secret, I keep the 90° angle drive adapter at home and use the dealt pivoting bit adapter. It locks onto 180° (keeping it straight) and when pushed out it moorings to freely rotate up to 20° I think. Its only slightly larger than a traditional bit holder saving a bit of space and bulk, and work 95% of what the right angle adapter does. It does start to jamb over time so I keep a small hammer or pliers I tap with to get it loose. Still worth every penny. *edit* I had paused the video to comment but after resuming I noticed one in the bits box. I guess it's good to carry both but when carrying it around with other essentials as I do, it makes a difference to cut down on bulk and weight.

    That NC voltage meter can save your life. Had a fellow appliance tech go to check a washer and dryer and the dryer was shorted and had voltage going through the entire dryer. He didn’t know that, he went to look behind the appliances, put one hand on the dryer and one on washer and made himself a path of least resistance. He died at the customers house unfortunately. So before I touch an appliance, I use that volt sniffer to see if an appliance is shorted by any chance.

That was an obvious board failure. The other was appeared to be fine, no obvious bad components, but when you power it up, you could hear a relay clicking on and off and an led light blinking to the relay click on and off, the inside fridge light was also blinking to the relay, so was the thermostat control panel ... After un-plugging 3 times to try and reset, nothing, still kept doing the same thing so i un-plugged all the harness' and powered back up and same clicking issue so i said its done, needs a new board.

    The course is mainly geared toward running the business and getting customers so that you can start from nothing and scale to a full time, successful business. But I have added a full module dedicated to sealed system repairs since there was so much demand, so that is in the course. And with enough demand, I will add more technical trainings on more of the appliances. Keep in mind tho, I give you my best resources for getting real hands-on training at your own pace.
