a spray can ofWD-40. His intention was to cure the skipping that was occurring.
Instead he ended up destroying the main circuit board and the laser's lens.

plenty of repair tips and helpful advice.
Safety is the most important consideration when you are working with electronics.
Always take precautions for your personal safety and the safety of the
equipment on which you are working. Your manual includes a detailed safety
article which outlines the steps you should take to avoid injury. The article also
describes the measures to take in the event of an injury. It is imperative that you
only tackle those faults which you understand.
Putting this another way, you should only attempt to repair an item ofelectronic
equipment if you are fully confident that you understand what you arle doing.

to tackle even complex problems. However, you should proceed cautiously at
all times. WEKA Publishing is not responsible for any damage to health or
