Ah! Good old general repair procedure #1. Whack it!

No no no no no. "Whacking it" is neither politically
correct or billable.

What it needs is "percussive maintenance".

In the 70's and 80's I worked as a support engineer for a large
mainframe computer company. One weekend I was at a customer site
attempting to find a very intermittant problem. I had found a good sized
piece of 2x4 and was beating on the metal frame while running diagnostic
software. A member of the local customer management happened to stop by
while I was doing this. He failed to see the practicality of my
technique. I had to stop and do other things until after he left the
site.


Using the 2x4 on that guy would have been more productive. You're
fired

Careful... you'll be sued for using those words...
