Replacing ICs
ICs must be replaced with care. Most ICs in the console are socketed so that they can be replaced.
When replacing an IC, be careful to not bend legs under the IC or outside the socket. Be extremely careful to not shock an IC or the PC board with a static dis-
charge. In some cases, you must use a grounded arm or anklet if there is a possibility of a static discharge.
In all cases, retain the old IC because it may be found to not be damaged.
