A friend had a German made coffee machine that had crapped out.  He took it apart and found a video that claimed a common failure was a particular power transistor.  He asked me to help and I found a suitable replacement and soldered it in.  I tried to emphasize how important it would be to take pictures of every connector (there were plenty) so we could get it back together.  He slap dashed the pictures and it took us some time to gain enough confidence of the wiring to turn it on.  It worked and the wife was again happy.
