Great thread guys.

I've had a few of those -"just needs a fuse or a reset" bargains come  
my way.
Most of the repairs that I've accomplished have been broken traces or  
cold solder joints.
I hit the wall when it comes to testing ICs - any general advice or  
trouble-shooting strategies would be appreciated.
(I guess it depends of what is being tested...)


peace,

jmw
