TROUBLESHOOTING
TESTING AND ADJUSTING
Troubleshooting can be difficult.  On the following pages there is a list of possible
problems. To make a repair to a problem, make reference to the cause and correction.
This list of problems, causes, and corrections, will only give an indication of where a
possible problem can be, and what repairs are needed. Normally, more or other repair
work is needed beyond the recommendations in the list.
Remember that a problem is not normally caused only by one part, but by the relation of
one part with other parts. This list can not give all possible problems and corrections. The
serviceman must find the problem and its source, then make the necessary repairs.
