Lamont,
CE-F F is Weighed Filter under CAL cards A21, A22, A70 If A60S2(2) is OPEN and an A70 impairments board (Option 003) is not installed, CE-F will always occur during the CAL Cycle.
I have found connectors causing this problem.
All this stuff is clearly documented, just Google and read the documentation. This unit is a popular piece of equipment, and there is no lack of weeks upon weeks worth of user input.

I bought an HP3596B off EBay.
?I have a service manual on order.
?First thing I did was remove the leaky battery and
thoroughly clean the PS board.
It looks good, however if I look down to the edge connector
inside the unit I can see it has the blue
buildup on it from the battery leak. I'll save that
until I disassemble to clean and lube the switches.
?At power up the self calibration comes back with
CE-F.
One poster suggested I put in? Recall, Decimal point,
Center Frequency ,8, when I do it comes back with
Fail? 1? 0.
?Anyone have info on what the error codes denote?
?????????????????????????????????????
Thanks, Lamont
