Overview of Troubleshooting Procedures
The
troubleshooting procedures
are
described
in
section 8.2. They're based mainly
upon
the
disc-
based
diagnostic tests. (The user receives
some
of these tests
in
the built-in diagnostics). For
most
problems,
the
disc-based tests indicate the assembly
and
component
that are bad.
Other
tests
are
available to
help
determine
and
verify the problem with a unit.
If
the disc-based tests
don't
run, you'll
use
the
built-in
diagnostic tests.
