Troubleshooting with a schematic vs guessing, night and day difference
Last week I spent 4 hours chasing a intermittent squawk on a King KX-155, finally dug out the actual wiring diagram from the file cabinet instead of relying on memory. Found a chafed wire behind the rack that was grounding out on the airframe, fixed in 20 minutes. Any of you guys still keep paper schematics or is everyone on a tablet now?

So what's the harm in having the schematic even if it's just to double check? It's kind of like having a map when you're lost, even if you end up finding the road by accident, it at least kept you from going in circles for another hour.

Ever think the schematic just gave you a excuse to look somewhere different, and dumb luck did the real work?
