Last night I did first ever real repair. I fixed a TS-9 Tube Screamer for a friend. It had a diode from +9V to ground that had failed closed. I thought diodes usually fail open.
Anyway, maybe some of the more experienced people here could tell me how parts typically fail (open/closed). I'm curious about resistors, caps, voltage regulators, diodes, transformers and ICs.
