Re: H.P. L1710 back lamps turning off
I wonder if my problem may be trying to use a voltage regulator that has been salvaged from another board, I just replaced the 1117 3.3v regulator with a used one and I get a good green power light for about 5 or 6 seconds with a good 3.3v and the it turns amber, back lights are still staying on but the v out of the 3.3v regulator goes down to 1.6 volts ,It is also very Hot to the touch.If the regulator states it's 3.3v I am guessing a resistor is not involved?
