in this appendix.
A-3. If the component values in the instrument are different than the ones shown on the
schematics and parts list (Table 7-3) and are NOT listed in this appendix, replace with the
component values and part numbers presently on the schematics and parts list.

is in the form of XXXXAXXXXX. The first four numbers is the serial number prefix and
