Ripley's TnA (Talk n Action) Repair Thread

Great work ripley, yes sxxxx are different from xxxxs but don't ask me how! they will have different characteristics,

Transistors do go bad so your doing the right thing changing components until you find the damaged one, do you have a multimeter? Some have a transistor tester on them,

Also when your soldering do you use a solder pump? It's great for getting rid of excess solder on a joint or removing bad solder, With solder you can get dry joints which aren't conductive although they physically look good and are connected.


Keep up the good work,
