Been a while since I have had something burn up and smell but today was in the office and had someone tell me they shut down one of their machine due to a bad burning smell. So i took it apart a lo and behold I smell a bad power supply. I open it up and I can see visual burn marks on the circuit board of the power supply, but dont see much else. There are some Rulycons in it with just a touch of bulging and some huge Fu Jun caps with some brownish black stuff at the base. (Might be glue, but who knows)
Ill post pics tonight when I get home to the camera, but I was under the impression that things really didnt start failing on the caps until they were really bulging/bursting.
Any ideas?
