Here is an interesting one. So a guy came into the workshop clutching a large PCB and asked me if I could fix it *urgently* So let’s look at the process of undertaking this sort of repair, working out what the different sections of the PCB do and deciding which diagnostic method is most likely to result in a successful repair. Could you have fixed this PCB? Be honest with us all in the comments, and let us know if this video helped you or gave you more confidence with this sort of repair
