In reply to GIFT ELIJAH.

Yes, good health and wisdom we sure all can use Gift!
To help you further in your quest to fix as many rework stations as possible know this: Checking safely if hotair solder stations still have a shorted circuit or not is difficult to do with the lightbulb trick. Because the about 75 W lightbulb will just light up frequently and the hotair station or gun will never properly function giving you a false negative result. But then you probably will know that your hotair solder station is working.

Excellent guidance and reference article! "there is no standard in the wiring color code", puts a chill in many of us! It is a news to me, as I never had a chance to do this before!
