A homeowner tried to fix their own thermostat and called me after frying the board.
People messing with stuff they don't understand just costs them more in the end.

Seriously, how do you even manage to fry a circuit board like that?

What were you doing right before it happened, @the_troy? I fried a board once by using the wrong power supply, just a simple voltage mix-up. Could it have been a short from something metal touching it, or maybe even some spilled liquid? Sometimes a power surge from the wall outlet can do it too if there's no good surge protector. Figuring out the exact mistake is the best way to make sure it never happens again!

What exactly did you mess up, voltage or connectors?
