I had to have a control board replaced on a Maytag Dryer, under waranty. Since I watched the tech do it, I could not shake from my head -- "this could be a tiny script plus a RPi or an Arduino with a Relay board" Is anyone working on something like that, or are liabilities to great?

- dreamcompiler 7y agoExactly. Arduino is more than capable. The programming is trivial and the components are super cheap; we're not talking rad-hard parts here. I'm thinking for my next washer I'll take the board out and re-solder all the joints, put a decent power conditioner on it, and add a fan and decent capacitors. Should last forever. Or better yet, open source washing machines.
