I just had the same issue a day or two before, so I knew that was his problem, and I told him that. When he called me at 5:00pm and told me he was confused, and did not know where to start, and I asked him if he tried replacing that board, he said no one else thinks that is the problem. I told him that if you are not going to try what I asked you to, then why are you calling me? So finally after much prodding from me and a "don't make me come out there" he replaced the circuit board, and his problem was fixed. Took him all day on something that could of been done before 9:30 am.

I know the type. Ten bucks says when asked, he will claim it was his idea, right in front of you. This is where you do your best not to strangle him.
