is not responsible for parts damaged due to incorrect wiring.
If you suspect you have damaged parts, you can follow this procedure to systematically
determine which ones need replacing:
1. Lamp (L4), color LED (D8), blue LED (D9), blink red LED (D11), color2 LED (D12), melody
IC (U32), and battery holder (B3): Place batteries in holder. Place the lamp directly across the
battery holder, it should light. Place the LEDs (D8, D9, D11, & D12) directly across the battery
holder one at a time (LED + to battery +), the LED should light (D8 should change colors, D11
should be blinking, and D12 should slowly change colors). Place the melody IC directly across
the battery holder (+ to +), it should play a tune. If none work, then replace your batteries and
repeat, if still bad then the battery holder is damaged.
3. Jumper wires (blue and orange): Use this mini-circuit to test each jumper wire, the lamp
should light.
5. 3-snap wires: Use this mini-circuit to test each of the 3-snap wires. The lamp should light.
6. Slide switch (S1): Build this mini-circuit; if the lamp doesn’t light then the slide switch is bad.
