Day 24: Flipped the switch and only silence

Spent a majority of my work time today getting the control panel all put together. I double checked everything and tested the connections. Everything checked out so I threw the switch only to find a gimpy psu fan pulsing at maybe 50 rpms... I took everything that I just put together apart before pulling the psu. I am positive there is a short somewhere in that vast array of resistors and capacitors and after spending about 3 hours searching, I have gave up and moved on to the thrust stand. It reminds me of something Geoff says, "If you can't fix it with a hammer, it's an electrical problem."


Looks pretty bulletproof to me!
