I wish home appliances all used the same form factor for controller boards for these smart appliances. Like a socket for a raspberry pi (instead of a hat).

Had to replace my dishwasher because the controls shorted out.

A motor or the display could just as easily burn out, but this article is about software problems, which you could fix with a workalike board.
