Subject: SDS 9 - dead channel

From: "Jonathan" <capnfishy@...>
Date: 2012-04-17

Hi,
I bought these over 2 years ago and have only now been able to set them up properly due to our protracted house move.

Anyway, they worked fine on the few occasions I explored them when I got them, but now I find that channel 4 is not making any sound. The trigger LED flashes & I have swapped leads & pads and this points to the brain.

Can anyone please help me on any common(?) faults or how I go about diagnosing the problem? I have a multimeter & a very basic grasp of electronics.

Many thanks
Jonathan
