Hello,
Hopefully a quick one.
Anyone got any pointers on where to look, for this fault condition?
This was working OK, then next time i tried it, it didn't start.
No noises or smells. No visible signs of damaged components/overheating.
No voltage on any rails, including standby
No fan twitch (so no short?)
Have 160v DC voltage at primary capacitors
Can't find any shorted diodes.
All of the transformer windings are continuous.
TOP222Y standby? switch start-up cap, 25uf/25v tests OK (24uf /1.3ohm ESR)
Have 160v across all legs of this topswitch
Optoisolator tests good (removed and tested).
Found one resistor that appears to be shorted (tested in-circuit) (see photo)
It's connected to the transistor? that is mounted on the heatsink.
Would this prevent the PSU from starting up?
Could this be a start-up resistor?
