UNIT REPAIR — C172 PSB/PSE BOARD
This section is necessary only for servicers who repair to the component level. Servicers who
perform only board replacement (including all U.S. servicers) can ignore this section. The table
below lets you troubleshoot problems with the power supply board (C172 PSB/PSE). The table
provides various symptoms, likely causes, and checkpoints. Checkpoints include waveforms,
resistances, and other values to be checked to evaluate the operation of each component.
