STIGA does not recommend attempting to repair electrical components. Most do not lend themselves to repair and you would have more money invested in “time of repair” than the part would cost and the results may not be as good.
WORKSHOP MANUAL Chapter EDITION PAGE ZT 5132 T 7 - ELECTRICAL SYSTEM 2017 42 / 7.1.5 Electrical measurements • Voltage measurement There are two basic rules to be remembered when using a voltmeter. A voltmeter measures the voltage difference between the test leads and the voltmeter is always connected across the circuit under test.
