Intermittent Problems
Intermittent problems are typically caused by open circuits, resulting from a cold solder
joint, contamination (dirt, oil, oxide, etc.) on a connector pad, a loose connection, broken
street from a sharp fold in a flex, or a partially seated connector.
For intermittent failures involving the Ranging and LCD Boards, Figure 4-3 shows initial
“quick check” tests.
