Our miter saw’s LED light just stopped working.
Fortunately, we have Fred.
He spent some time today investigating the failure. Connections are good, wiring looks right, and there’s no obvious damage to the solder joints.
And, before anyone asks, yes, Fred unplugged the saw before taking it apart. Safety first.
His diagnosis: probably a failed LED.
A replacement is on the way.
Management remains cautiously optimistic about both the repair and Fred’s continued employment.
