The diagnosis ​

When the readings point at one part, the session's status changes to Diagnosed and the step column shows the diagnosis:

The diagnosis card: the likely part, how sure NextProbe is, the evidence and the fix.

Part of the cardWhat it tells you
TitleThe fault in plain words: "U7000 charger controller not enabling the bus".
LikelyThe part, its net and its part number.
ConfidenceHow sure NextProbe is that this part is the fault.
EvidenceThe readings that led here, in words.
FixWhat to do, and what to check first.
Donor boardsBoards that carry the same part in the same circuit.
Part sourcesSearches for the part number at common suppliers, opened in your browser.

Two actions sit at the foot of the card:

  • Record the repair, once you have done the work.
  • Not this, back a step, if you disagree with the diagnosis or want to retake the last reading. The session returns to the step before, and the diagnosis is set aside.

On the board, the leads stay where the last reading was taken, so you can see the circuit around the part.

Your board files never leave your computer.
