I did the "jump" test and it started to heat. So faulty PID it is !
I looked at WLL wesbsite and shipping to Canada is ridiculous (155$ US)... Can they ship with USPS ? Is there a way to repair it (soldering iron and electronic component) or it's a in the garbage item ? Thanks a lot for your help !
