OBSERVATION

This was another least popular question among the candidates.  Performance was poor.      This must be due to the fact that candidates are not exposed to enough practical activities.

                        (a)        A jumper is a short length of conductor/wire used to bridge a gap/by pass                                       of an electrical circuit.

                        (b)        Insert SIM

                                    Any correct 4

                                    e.g.      -           Bad SIM IC
                                                -           Phone dropped into liquids (e.g. water)
                                                -           Bad SIM bed
                                                -           Bad SIM card
                                                -           Broken line bus
