Fixing Old Spartan and Ridgid Sewage Cameras
Issue
- Spartan Camera: Blacks out randomly & torn end whip wiring
- Ridgid Camera: Previously repaired, in pieces, no led lights (non operational without lights)
Work Done
- Initial Troubleshooting:
- Tested Spartan camera, confirmed issue appears after maneuvering, and slight artifacts in video feed. Tested on second monitor as well.
- Ridgid camera operational, LEDs don’t turn on except randomly.
- Spartan re-soldering:
- Disconnected and re-soldered every connection up to whip, artifacts still present. Black out gone. Initially glued whip back together with M3 marine epoxy. Falied on first use. Whip reconstruction needed.
- Cut whip shorter, reconstruction not stable. Recreate whip next.
