Boiler not striking up (again)!
In message , "Simon (Dark

With the plugs connected (and the power off) I checked for continuity between where the cable terminates in the plug, and the solder joint on the back of the PCB, and got a continuity reading on all terminals. That tests the conductivity of the solder. A common failure on PCBs is that the pad lifts from the board and breaks the copper track that connects to the pad. You need to do the test between the pad and another on the same track and do a visual check with a magnifier. If its broken you will need to run a piece of wire to repair the track. Dennis - you are entering territory where you know less than you know about most things you know **** all about I on the other hand, really do know how to get to the bottom of this so be a good boy and **** off and leave me to it You are a pratt, what I said was perfectly true. Are you worried he might fix it without your help? You appear to have ignored such an obvious point. |

"geoff" wrote in message ... It might be right in general, it's not apt It was pointing out the deficiencies of the test method used to check connectivity. Only a pratt like you would assume the connectivity was OK after being told it was using that method of testing. BTW I have fixed and modded more PCBs than you have ever seen. At least 8 of the ones currently used in the UK exchange network were designed, tracked, commissioned, modded and tested by me before they were put into production to make thousands of them. They are not pathetic little boiler parts either, they range from parts of a "bit slice" processor to memory cards, IO controllers, X25 communications cards and a few others that you wouldn't have a clue about. And I wrote the software that runs on many of them. What do you do?.. fix fans! I wouldn't be surprised if you just want to get down to telling him he needs a new PCB so you can sell him one. |

I was I was gadding around Indonesia, Bali one week, Sumatra the next supervising the commissioning of microwave links It doesn't get much better than that, effectively two years paid holiday, great ex-pat life, sunshine every day And what was the highlight of your day ? waiting for the bun lady to come round What a pathetic little man you are I wouldn't be surprised if you just want to get down to telling him he needs a new PCB so you can sell him one.

Marconi *never* did any military stuff (apart from a small company that made aircraft windows). http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marconi_Electronic_Systems "Between 1945 and GEC's demerger of its defence business in 1999, the company became one of the world's most important defence contractors.

"geoff" wrote in message ... Marconi *never* did any military stuff (apart from a small company that made aircraft windows). http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marconi_Electronic_Systems "Between 1945 and GEC's demerger of its defence business in 1999, the company became one of the world's most important defence contractors. " I don't really need to add anything to that, do I ? No you still didn't work for Marconi. You are just wrong and can't admit it. Marconi Electronics Systems has about as much to do with Marconi plc as ctld ltd has, absolutely nothing. Do you think your company is a part of McDonalds? |

I still think you are making it up, if you weren't you would have admitted your error by now. I realise that you have personality problems, just try and keep them under control eh? Its you that thinks you are always right even when you post stuff that proves you are wrong. As for the others they are really stupid for believing you. |
