He was mystified and tried various things over a long period of time, but to no avail. On about his 6th visit (a month or so ago), he replaced some sensors and this fixed the ice problem but the fridge was then too warm and was flashing an error code. Food started going off much too fast. Eventually the rental agent called in a expert who showed me what a poor job the appliance specialist had done with the sensors (they were wrapped in parcel tape and some were in the wrong positions). After a couple of hours, the expert had sorted out the sensors and the fridge finally worked properly.
This reminded me of the programming world. It’s tough because the cheap option is so appealing, but in the long term it usually turns out considerably slower and more expensive. It reminds me of a saying I saw recently:
“The bitterness of poor quality remains long after the sweetness of low price is forgotten.”
