Repair Philosophy
Most 98780A repairs are done by replacing the faulty assembly. The old assembly is returned
for repair in some cases (exchange program) and is thrown away in others. In a few cases, a
faulty assembly can be repaired to the component level either on-site or at the local field office.
This procedure is recommended only when replaceable components are not soldered in or
when the probability of inducing further damage in the course of doing the repair is minimal. All
components which may be replaced by the CE are listed as level 2 parts under the assembly part
number in the parts lists. Other failures should be repaired at the assembly level. All exchange parts
are noted as such in the parts lists.
