HOW TO REPAIR ELECTRONIC EQUIPMENT
|
||
|
||
1. Approach the ailing instument in a confident manner. This will give the
|
||
instrument the mistaken idea that you know something. It will also impress
|
||
anyone who happens to be looking, and if the instrument should suddenly start
|
||
working you will be credited with its repair. Should this fail, proceed to
|
||
step 2.
|
||
|
||
2. Wave the service manual at the instrument. This will make the instrument
|
||
assume that you are at least familiar with the source of knowledge. Should
|
||
this fail, proceed to step 3.
|
||
|
||
3. In a forceful manner, recite Ohm's Law to the instrument. (Caution:
|
||
BEFORE TAKING THIS STEP, REFER TO A HANDBOOK TO BE SURE OF YOUR KNOWLEDGE OF
|
||
OHM'S LAW.) This will prove to the instrument that you do know something. This
|
||
is a drastic step and should only be taken if the first two steps fail. If
|
||
this step fails, proceed to step 4.
|
||
|
||
4. Jar the instrument slightly. This may take anything from a three to six
|
||
foot drop, preferably on a concrete floor. However, you must be careful with
|
||
this step because, while jarring in the approved method of repair, you must not
|
||
mar the floor. Again, this is a very drastic step. If it should fail, proceed
|
||
to step 5.
|
||
|
||
5. Brandish a large screwdriver in a menacing manner. This will frighten
|
||
the instrument ans demonstrates the deadly "SHORT CIRCUIT" technique. If this
|
||
step fails, proceed to step 6.
|
||
|
||
6. Add a tube...even if the instrument is solid state. This will prove to
|
||
the instrument that you are familiar with the design of the instrument. Also,
|
||
this will increase your advantage and confuse the instrument. If this step
|
||
fails, proceed to the most drastic and dangerous step of all, step 7. It is
|
||
very seldom used and is the last resort if all else fails.
|
||
|
||
7. Think...!? Last resort if all else fails.
