Troubleshooting Using the TAM
When using Automatic Fault Isolation, the TAM indicates suspected
circuits that need to be manually checked. Use Table 8-1 on page 408 to
locate the manual procedure. Table 8-2 on page 410 lists assembly test
connectors associated with each Manual Probe Troubleshooting test.
Figure 8-1 on page 408 illustrates the location of A4 and A5 test
connectors. Figure 8-2 on page 412 illustrates the levels and paths
through the IF Section.
