How to Diagnose and Fix Everything Electronic, Third Edition

Description:

Comprehensive and accessible―perfect for mastering the fundamentals of fixing electronics without taking a formal course

How to Diagnose and Fix Everything Electronic, Third Edition details how to repair consumer electronics products ranging from modern digital devices to some older technologies. Filled with expert insights, case studies and sleuthing techniques from a former professional technician, it provides great guidance on how to assemble a workbench, operate the latest test equipment, zero in on and replace malfunctioning components, and perform reassembly.

This is a comprehensive guide for anyone seeking to better understand electronic products, from stereos and flat-screen TVs to laptops and mobile devices. This new edition includes expanded introductory explanations helping novices dig in with less difficulty and advance to more involved circuit concepts as their understanding grows. It also includes new material about hot-air soldering stations and reflects changes in soldering and repair techniques needed for today's surface-mounted componentry. Unlike tear-down tutorials on the internet, this book guides its readers into thinking like a pro, understanding how items actually work, rather than focusing on specific models of devices. Also new to this edition is a discussion of lithium-ion batteries, which power most modern electronics.
  • Accessible guide to electronics repair for the curious hobbyist
  • Provides useful troubleshooting techniques for those in electronics trade programs
  • New edition cuts out obsolete items like CRT TVs and VCRs, and continues with the most current trends in electronics

5.0 out of 5 stars Very useful, but you need the equipment.

D.S. · 13 September 2025

Found it very useful. I worked as an electronics engineer for 40 years so have all the test equipment. Anyone completely new to electronics would need to spend quite a bit of money to get started. I got this book as a refresher after retiring.

5.0 out of 5 stars First class read

Absolutely brilliant. A must for those wanting to understand and troubleshoot electronics. Love the way the author writes logically and with humour. Like all good communicators it stems from first understanding your own subject in depth, and that comes from experience. However not everyone can impart the knowledge successfully. The author does it though with consummate ease.

2.0 out of 5 stars Book content is good; print quality is bad

A.C. · 1 June 2025

The content of this book is really good and is essentially an up-to-date expansion of previous editions. However the book production and print quality is pretty bad for a book of this cost. The cover has been trimmed too small so that it doesn't adequately cover the page block, the paper quality is not good, and the black and white photos are also pretty poor quality. The book was also not packaged properly and thefore damaged in transit.

Zeer technisch maar goed verstaanbaar opgesteld
