    Rather interesting fault finding video

    It's nice to see a real world fault-finding video that at least aims to follow a logical process. As we occasionally get posts about how to fault find I thought I'd share it. It's also realistic that there a few head scratcher moments where nothing quite makes sense, and the value of keeping...
