My oven is a bunch of components. I might be able to do a 5 dollar soldering fix but now need to buy a 100 dollar component to replace the one that's not working. I guess I agree that soldering a wire or replacing a component requires the same amount of intelligence, but it's not he same "system".
Whoever put code into ovens and decided we shouldn't be allowed to buy ovens without code really needs to be taken to the woodshed...
