One of the great benefits of having a digital camera is in doing vehicle repairs that you haven't attempted before. Taking photos from two different angles before you start and then as you remove covers and parts goes a long way to helping put it all back together properly and in the right order.
Ditto for computer connections, TV Connections. I use my digital camera to take pictures of all connections so that I have them for reference in case I need them.
That's definitely a great tip.
I also do that for just about any car/motorcycle/computer etc repair that I do.
Make sure you save the pictures in an organized fashion. Then when you have to perform the maintenance procedure or repair again, you can refer back to the original pictures.

My other buddy laughed and said, "He'd never get 'em all back on in the right order!" (Actual occurrence!!!) s
