* Check for +15 V and adjust if not between 14.3 V and 15.7 V
* [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U5LQpqwqNIU Tek TG501A Time Mark Gen Restoration] by NFM @ YouTube
* If +5 V is outside 4.94 V − 5.46 V, check U626 (LM741) − old opamps are prone to failure.
* See the [[TG501/Repairs]] page for repair information.
* A lot of ICs are placed in non gold plated IC sockets. Contact problems can occur. Removing and inserting ICs helps.
* A1 board should be mounted to frame only with washers inbetween, especially near the rear connector. Shorts to conductor tracks can occur otherwise.
