Official-source error guidance
Every public core field retains attributable manufacturer evidence and appliance scope.
Evidence-led · quote-first · safety-first
Understand the error. Decide whether to repair or replace.
Check appliance codes against official manufacturer sources. Understand what your appliance is reporting, then compare the real repair and replacement quotes you already have. Neither tool replaces professional diagnosis.

Why trust the boundary
Evidence for the error. Transparency for the decision.
Published error guidance is reviewed against official sources. Calculator thresholds are clearly labeled policy, with safety and warranty taking precedence.
Your quotes, not generic prices
Fix or Replace uses the written repair and replacement totals you enter; it does not diagnose the fault.
Safety and warranty first
Immediate hazards stop the comparison, and possible coverage is checked before out-of-pocket economics.
