Had a couple of BA faults I've been called out to recently.
First one was the external sounder intermittently ringing. No inkling of anything wrong from the RKP.
Searched & searched, and eventually found a short induced by an ill-placed steel staple in a 12 core cable.
It was shorting together the 0v of the 13v output and the B terminal of the SCB......
Never seen that before!, Nor for that matter the next one.....
Got a call to a house where the guy had fitted a phone extension in the boxroom.
Complained that when he lifted the receiver, the external sounder of his BA went off and would not shut up.
I'll let you guess what he had done before I come back with the correct answer.....!!
