... it's about a tools.
Have a Metcal MX-500P-21 soldering station which I just love, but... . When I power it ON, it turns on yellow LED instead of a green one (green means ready, yellow means fault). Couple times turn on-turn off and it works and it happens more and more often. Today I couldn't turn it ON at all. Pulled out a plug to see if I can open it and as I couldn't, I left it as is without a power cord connected. Half time later, plugged a cord in and voila - it works.
Is there anyone have an experience with Metcal or generally have an idea what can be wrong. I'm guessing that it can be some cold joint but... just wondering.
Now its cold again and I tried to start it and it turns on from the first try so something strange is happening. Just want to be prepared in the case...
