Look up the schematic for the problem circuit. De-
termine how the circuit is supposed to work by trac-
ing the current paths from the power leed through
the circuit components to ground. It severalcircuits
fail at the same time, the luse or ground is a likely
cause.
Based on the symptoms and your understanding of
the circuit operation, identity one or more possible
causes of the Droblem.
3. lsolato The Problom By Testing The Circuit
Make circuit tests to check the diagnosis you made
in step 2. Keep in mind that a logical, simple proce-
dure is the key to etticient troubleshooting. Test for
the most likely cause of failure first. T.y to make
tests at points that are easilv accessible.
