"Right to repair" appliances.

New European Union "Right to Repair" rules.


It will be interesting to see who are deemed to be repair professionals and what are considered specialist tools.

  • Some years ago I spoke to a repair guy who worked for a firm thst had spent a lot of money buying equipment to take components off circuit boards and install replacements as they had a contract to repair satellite tv boxes.


    It had not been used and they had not repaired a box a year into the contract,  because none had actually been sent to them for repair with the satellite tv customers just being handed brand new boxes to replace faulty ones that were being stacked up in a shed somewhere.
