Working on a board that's been repaired several times to the point where there's nothing left to solder the transistor to. Now I need to either find someone who can proffesionaly repair it or try & jumper to another point on the board.....
I had them repair the board a year or so again, but the claw is now slamming shut on power up. I e-mailed asking them which of the transistors to change, but never heard back....
When is the last time you were in contact with AGE? I was trying to find them to fix a crane a few years ago, and everything I found was disconnected and non-responsive.
Even if the trace is gone, the shadow of where it was laid down should still be slightly visible. Try looking at the board with a strong light on an angle.
The AGE Challenger Claw Crane I fixed didn't have a board schematic. The manual was pure trash - it looked like a bad xerox.
