I'd like to tell a quick story about successful troubleshooting.

A few months ago I rented a scissor lift to install lighting at my new office. When it arrived, the delivery person gave me a quick demo and off he went.

Well, when I went to actually use it - the lift went up by about a foot then stopped and screamed beeps of terror. It was broken!

But the display on the control read "18"

Rather than call the rental company, I searched "sinoboom fault code 18" to see what that meant.

@TechConnectify years ago (eh late 1990’s) I worked for a Sun reseller and as part of getting certified for Sun’s bigger servers I had to take a series of Sun trainings including a week long course on troubleshooting. It was really excellent - covered a lot of pretty universal techniques (along with some specific to Sun - like how to get root if you have physical access)

For the final day/test we had a room of machines to troubleshoot. One was “sticky tape on a connector”

Another “OS rooted”
