Live Appliance Repair Help

What is Live Help?

BBBOnLine Reliability SealLive Help is a subscription service where you get fast, interactive appliance repair help directly with Samurai Appliance Repair Man… live!

The cornucopia of benefits include:

  1. Phone calls, email, faxes, and/or online chat
    so you’ll always have a certifiable appliance repair guru at your beck and call to show you the tricks-of-the-trade that only a Grand Master of Appliantology would know.
  2. Access to the Samurai’s ever-expanding private vault of genuine manufacturer’s repair manuals in PDF format.
  3. Access to the exclusive Enrolled Students Classroom at the Samurai Appliance Repair Forum where you’ll receive priority attention to your problem.

I welcome professional servicers as enrolled students! In fact, many of my students are professional servicers. Just keep in mind that this program is priced and geared for helping homeowners repair their own appliances. That means this is not a tech hotline service– I may or may not be available on a real-time basis when you’re at a customer’s house, scratching your head about what to do. I make every effort to be available by phone but, hey, I’m just one guy. One very talented and good-looking guy, to be sure, but one guy nonetheless.

Eligibility Requirements: You must own a multimeter and know how to make simple resistance and voltage measurements. If you have no idea what I just said, then you can easily learn by reading this non-techie, how-to guide on Making Basic Electrical Measurements. The Samurai will guide you through the circuitry by telling you what to measure and where, but you are expected to know how to use your own meter to make basic resistance and voltage measurements.

What’s included in the Live Help program? I thought you’d never ask! Your annual enrollment includes the following benefits:

  • Live help from the Samurai on your appliance repair problem! This could be by phone, SMS text messages, email, AIM
    , or in the repair forum.
  • Unlimited help on any number of major appliance problems.
  • Full access and posting privileges in the Samurai School of Appliantology.
  • Unlimited access to the Xdrive repair manual stash.

How much is all this? $2,000? NO! $487? No, but interesting guess. $79? Daf right, Homey. Yep, you get full annual enrollment in the Live Help program, including access to the Xdrive repair manual stash, for a measly 79 clams. Come and git it:

Shortly after you complete the checkout, I’ll send you an email to jump start you on your way to appliance repair Nirvana.

Testimonial from an enlightened student of the Samurai School of Appliantology:

The $$ I spent on “tuition” is among the best $$ I’ve spent in my life. Over the first 6 months it’s probably saved me over $1,000 in service calls, not to mention hours of waiting at home for repair persons who will be there “sometime between 8am and noon”. He even told me how to fix a dishwasher circuit board (that I’m sure a repair person would have simply replaced) by re-soldering a cold connection, including the precise location of the connection that was “cold” (saved cost: $300). He has a 1000 batting average in picking the failed part based simply on a phone description of the problem! The repair manual library is invaluable for fix-it-yourselfers. This is an amazing service!
