* Decide which to troubleshoot -- the CV Cir cuit, the CC Circuit, or the PWM and Off-P ulse & On-Pulse Oneshots -- by
measuring the CV CONTROL (A2CR24, cathode) and the CC CONTROL (A2CR19 cathode) voltages. Troubleshoot
whichever is negative, and if neither is negative, troubleshoot the PWM. Make these voltage measurements after you ha ve
implemented the Main Troubleshooting Setup.
