    Antec True 380SP + Fuhjyyu cap - lights out

    Helo Everyone
    Somebody trashed this PSU for a good reason, it blows the fuses at home (and god knows what else with it). Since I like a chalange, I am trying to recover it. This time the bad cap is on the imput side, a 470uf 200v. My humble theory: the cap has gone bad, which caused a Mosfet (k2996, already replaced) to fail (completly shorted) and of course: the fuses at home go and with it chuncks fly off the green thermistor.
    The thermistor is a pain to get, a SCK0510, 10A max, R 5, the closest I got is 10A, R 2.5 (dont think the beast will complaint too much about the 2.5 O difference), it should arrive in a few days. But its the cap that I am having trouble with, due to the size, D 25mm L 25mm. The worse is there is no room to improvise, both caps are sandwished between the main and upper pcbs. All I can find here in Brussels are monsters that would not fit in there even with a hammer. Does anybody know any shop that would sell a pair of those around this part of the world (Germany, Holland, Fance)?
    Thanks for any advice. Some pics to ilustrate the ordeal.

    PS: I saw some posts about the 18A max on the 12v, well this psu is 24A.

      Welcome Melios,

      I've looked through the catalogs of the more popular Dutch component vendors for you, and I've been able to find quite a number of 470uF, 200V caps (Panasonic-brand especially), but all of these are, at best, 25dia x 30h. As far as you can see, would the extra 5mm height be already enough to prevent them from fitting in the PSU?

      Another common size seems to be 25dia x 20h, but these tend to have capacitance in the range of 220uF, and so would hardly prove adequate substitutes for your blown Fuhjyyus.

          Melios,
          I see your in Europe so this may not help you.
          That power supply is on Ebay and the bidding is up to .99us.
          Yes I do mean less than one dollar, working pull.
          It just makes me think, FYI.

              Hi Tiresias
              Thanks for your help
              Thanks to the manufacturers links in this forum, I found identicaly sized replacements for the two Fihjyyu's :

              Nichicon: LGN2D47MELA25, LGG2P471MELA25
              Rubycon: 200MXG470M, 200USC470M, 200USG470M
              Sanyo: series PE-HC, PE-HD, PE-ED

              I am sure there are others. The problem of course will be to be able to buy two of theese whithout having to pay for a truck full of them

              The extra 5 mim lenght of the Panasonics would probably still work in terms of placement, but their tops would come too close to the underside of the top PCB where the high voltages flow, and that is too close for confort for me, all it takes is some heat expansion or slight bulging of their tops + some vibration and they would be rubbing againts the sharp soldered pins of the components of the top pcb and the rest is eazy to imagine...

              Anyway, I am on hold for know for those exact replacements, I got two TEAPOs (black listed but looking brand new) as temporary replacements connected to the dismentled psu just to test it and it turns out this thing still does not work so there is still some unsoldering to do before I try to get the permanent replacements. I think I got too optimistic when I found that shorted mosfet. Thats also why it took me some time to reply. What ever the outcome is will post it here. It may turn out that exceeds my capabilities

                  That would be handy, although to ship this brick to Brussels...

                  Anyway, fortunatly I don't have a machine down waiting for this thing. I found this along with other trashed psus that I didn't even bother to look inside until I started to look for those caps. Its just that these Antecs got good reviews when they appeared. Its a pity all these Fuhjyyu's inside.
                  Hardware reviewers should re-test products after working for a while to measure reliability and publish their findings.

                      Can not find Model/Value of Thermistor.

                      Machine: Autoclave.

                      Manual: (Sorry search option not working on this PDF)



                      Hello guys, this autoclave running with 2 thermistors already connected TH1 and TH3(on CN1,CN2 sockets). One for the water temperture and second one for chamber temperature. But there is another emtpy socket for optional third thermistor CN2 wich is for TH2 for object temperature. I wanna add the third thermistor TH2 to CN2 socket. But i can't figure what model/brand/value i need to use. In manual document, there is no info about TH1 and TH3 model number...

                      Christmas lights - Something I am doing wrong
                      by Francesc V.
                      Hi:

                      i am trying to repair this Christmas lights from my parents. They are incandescent lights, no led lights.

                      I have tried with 12V a 24V small lights that I found in Aliexpress but is obvious that are not the right ones. They last microseconds connected. Do they blow because of Amps or Volts?

                      If I measure the Amps in the string........it's only 90mA. If I measure the Volts in the "green box"......it's between 0 and 190V, but doing a little bit of maths from the number of bulbs in series.......it's only about 6V per lamp.

                      Could...

                      Magic chef oven - thermistor ref voltage issue
                      by Use2bavolvo
                      I am having an issue with my wall oven temperature control is ~180f out of spec. The thermistor is measuring correctly but I noticed the ref voltage appears to be off. With the thermistor wires attached it's reading ~3.4vdc with the thermistor disconnected it's around I9.8vdc. my understanding is the temp is read off the resistance from the thermistor which leads me to believe the issue is with the ref voltage.

                      Another observation is the temp setting and readout at lower temps is way off meaning the oven thinks room temp is 300f and bake relay doesn't engage unless temp setting...

                      Lenovo ThinkPad E14 Gen 5 - Not Powering On - 3 Blinking Lights - 20 volts 0.224 amps
                      by bialag
                      Hello,

                      I have a Lenovo here that does not want to power on. The motherboard appears to be clean, no sign of corrosion or obvious fried components. When plugged in, I see 3 blinking lights and then off. It would cycle the 3 blinking lights every 10 seconds or so as long as I have the adapter plugged in. Amp meter shows 20 volts, 0.224 amps, no fan spin, red light indicator near the charge port.

                      Thermal camera shows a section of the motherboard that is warmer than the rest. It is near the connector labels JRTC1 (CMOS battery). Diode measurement to ground for pin 1 = OL,...

                      IMAC A1418 / MB: 820-00430-a / does not turn on, Lights 3 of the 4 LEDs and turns off.
                      by gabrielA7
                      Does not turn on, lights 3 of the 4 LEDs and turns off and stays like this, presses the power and repeats.
                      I saw that the room LED lights up only when the screen is connected, so quiet.

                      We have all the power supplies, even processor, 1.8V
                      One thing I found strange, it has a very low resistance in the Vcore is giving 1 Ohm , work with notes and such, I know that this is normal in some processors but with this resistance only take video card so found it strange.

                      I suspect that there may be some leak in the processor.
                      Anyway, when I press the power, it...
