Re: EuropAce EWC 3108 Wine Chiller - Seems like no temperature sensor input
So I replaced the PTC with a similar device extracted near incoming live input from another power board. Powered up and immediately a tiny spark is seen, and nothing else happened. Restored the original PTC, does not work already..
On quick check - the C106M appeared faulty. Pulled this out of circuit - Gate is shorted to Anode and Gate is opened to Cathode. With DMM black probe on Cathode, red probe on Anode, then "shorting" the gate with red probe, nothing happened. So I believe this SCR is already fried..
Could this SCR been faulty in the first place ??
