“Test failure: Ask someone else to check the circuit and connections if any test fails, as it is easy to miss something. Use fresh batteries. If the circuit still does not work, pack it carefully with enough stamps for return postage and send it to:
Electronics Advisor, Usborne Publishing, 20 Garrick Street, London WC2 9BJ”
