Recommendations for wires
#7

Hello Patrick,

I've done the heat shrink and lifting one end cuts the time to do it by almost half. What you want to do is identify all the wires you want to cover for each color then mark the schematic so you can check off each one as you go. The major lines are B+, B- and AVC. I usually go with red, black and yellow respectively. Then use white or blue for others. Once you identify the three major ones you'll find it much easier to find test points later on. The busy spots you will have to go with the flow and get to a color you're not working on. GL with the project.
