Determine and evaluate all trouble symptoms. This is accomplished by
isolating the problem to a general area such as an assembly. The block
diagram is a valuable aid in signal tracing and circuit isolation.
CAUTION. Use extreme care when probing with meter leads or probes, because of
the high component density and limited access within the instrument. The
inadvertent movement of leads or a probe could cause a short circuit or transient
voltages capable of destroying components.

CAUTION. Always remove the assembly from the instrument prior to attempting
to replace a soldered-in component. See Corrective Maintenance for the correct
procedure.

Visually inspect the suspect assembly for obvious defects. Most commonly
these will be broken or loose components, improperly seated components,
overheated or burned components, chafed insulation, etc. Repair or replace
