I am an electrical engineer,so I am always interested in articles about practical issues and their solutions. I often find that articles written about subjects such as this one are either poorlywritten, technically wrong, or both! This article is accurate without being hard to understand, which means the author has the skill and experience to recommend this procedure and he emphasizes safety, which is EXTREMELY IMPORTANT for anything which plugs into the mains, which carries enough power to be VERY DEADLY if not handled with respect. BETTER TO HIRE A TECHNICIAN IF YOU AREN’T CERTAIN YOU CAN SAFELY DO THE MODIFICATION! That being said, my sincere compliments to the author!!!

These modifications.are not difficult for a technician to do but they may be too much for someone who does not know how to solder, how to add and remove components on a circuit board, and now to test his work to.be certain it works properly AND SAFELY! This post is old, however,week so it will be no trouble to share my results with you, as long as you ha e the technical skills I’ve me ruined if this “problem is still an issue needing to. be fixed in more useful manner, I can send instructions to you by email or postal mail. By coincidence, I am about to apply these modifications to the exact same controller from Harbor Freight. Next
