I would think twice trying to 'test-jig' an RCM. Unless your very good at applying voltages exactly where necessary, you could do a lot more harm than good. Anyone who builds a test jig knows (through experiences gone bad, come on, we know who we are) one slip of a power/ground probe could damage more than being able to be economically repaired. In my later years, I sometimes shake. I have ruined some components on boards (that I wanted to salvage), and admit it may not be the last one I might screw up. I am aware that if I do 'skip' powered probes wrong, it may cost me. We all can't be 100% all the time. All I am saying is not everyone can test mounted components with hot probes. It only takes one 'OhDamn' to rack up quite a bill. Be careful, if you aren't absolutely sure you can do it, enlist experienced forum members (like tighed1). Good luck!
