== Post-recap verification == # Fit a fresh PP3 โ ideally via a bench supply set to 9 V with the current limit at about 100 mA first, so a mistake shows up as a limit rather than as smoke. # Confirm the '''off-state current is back in the tens of microamps'''. # Switch on and check the display appears and that the '''thumbwheel gives a full contrast range'''. # '''Set the clock, switch off, remove the battery for twenty seconds, refit it''' โ the time should survive. # '''Test SAVE and FIND on both slots''' with a known-good pak. Writing is the test that exercises the programming voltage pump. # Leave it switched off for a week and check the clock is still right and the battery has not drained. If a function that worked before the recap has stopped working, '''check the polarity of every part you replaced''' before looking anywhere else.
