    Monitor audio rsw12 no power

    HI folks back again after a long time now i know this subwoofers amplifier contains bad caps but all previous research involves only to humming which is documented on here and the caps to replace, my issue is the subwoofer just died dead no issues just kaput!! no power lights nothing.

    i only have a digital multimeter to test things but somewhere i had the schematics sent to me from monitor audio and forwarded them on to a chap but never got a response i will desperatley try to dig these out.

    240v is present inside.

    not much to go on at this stage but here is a youtube video guide to a guy repairing bad caps but i have not got no power?? zilch at the refrence points that he shows on the PCB.

    my pcb amplifier is exact layout

      Vizio e601i-A3 - Has Sound and Display, But No Backlight - Bad Power Supply Board or Bad LED Bulbs ?
      by Tynan Dill
      I was given this TV from my great uncle. He said it just wouldn't turn on one day out of nowhere, replaced the TV, and gave it to me to possibly fix and use for myself.

      Upon bringing it home and plugging it up, it showed a standby light.

      I powered it on and without a flashlight, the display showed the "V" but the lighting is very dim, but visible.

      The screen seems to blackout and stay black, but with a flashlight I can see the display.

      With my Playstation 4 connected via HDMI, and running a game I can hear sound.

      Assuming...

      Microsoft Surface Pro (5th gen) model 1796 - no power
      by PantherDave
      Hi all!

      I'm trying to troubleshoot a Microsoft Surface Pro (5th gen) model 1796 that won't power on. Motherboard model is M1007506-015. My priority is retrieving data, but the SSD is integrated so it looks like if I can't repair it it'll need to go to a data recovery company. I've done a little basic board repair before, but nothing this advanced until now. So please forgive my ignorance in advance. 😅

      I found the boardview for this laptop in the forums here, and am able to open it on my PC with FlexBV.

      Asus Probook P5440UF-XB74 power issue
      by GLISIT
      Hi all,

      TL;DR - this laptop is driving me nuts with the oddball power-related behaviors. Appreciate any insight you can provide!


      I'm experiencing a power issue on an Asus Probook P5440UF-XB74. Although I've worked with electronics and computers for decades, this is my first attempt at getting into motherboard-level component troubleshooting. Any help the community can provide is greatly appreciated!

      A few weeks ago I was using the laptop (on battery power) for a Zoom meeting. The battery was running very low (long meeting) but I wasn't worried about...

      Argon SA1 audio amplifier power-supply - fuse blown after fixing the short?
      by Babbar
      I found a project in the electronics trash yesterday. A nice Argon SA1 audio amp with some electrical issue. Took it apart and saw that the 4A250V fuse was blown so started lifting components to find the short. Eventually got to two MOSFETs (model FTA14N50C) that are shorted and when i took them out the short was gone.

      Now i didn't have any replacements of the same model of course but i found a couple with pretty similar spec i thought (K10A60D & K12A50D) and put them in. Also replaced the blown fuse with a 3.5A250V one. Checked another time for short circuit and plugged it in....

      Polk Audio RTi100 Plate Amplifier won't power on and intermittently honks and buzzes
      by MrCommunistGen
      My childhood best friend was killed about 9 years ago. His parents are finally letting go of his things, and they offered me his Polk RTi100 tower speakers. The Polk RTi100 towers are one of a handful of designs from the early 2000s that is a full range 3-way tower with a built-in self-powered subwoofer. This is accomplished with a plate amp integrated into the speaker input panel.

      I think they used them for a while, but they've been sitting for at least a few years now. After about 40 hours of driving to their house and back (both they and I have moved in the last 9 years) I got...
