How to Diagnose and Fix Everything Electronic, Third Edition details how to repair consumer electronics products ranging from modern digital devices to some older technologies. Filled with expert insights, case studies and sleuthing techniques from a former professional technician, it provides great guidance on how to assemble a workbench, operate the latest test equipment, zero in on and replace malfunctioning components, and perform reassembly.

This is a comprehensive guide for anyone seeking to better understand electronic products, from stereos and flat-screen TVs to laptops and mobile devices. This new edition includes expanded introductory explanations helping novices dig in with less difficulty and advance to more involved circuit concepts as their understanding grows. It also includes new material about hot-air soldering stations and reflects changes in soldering and repair techniques needed for today's surface-mounted componentry. Unlike tear-down tutorials on the internet, this book guides its readers into thinking like a pro, understanding how items actually work, rather than focusing on specific models of devices. Also new to this edition is a discussion of lithium-ion batteries, which power most modern electronics.
