    Re: Gateway fpd1520 Fuse Blown

    If you have one shorted turn on the transformer, using Ohm meter will not work. What you can try is to install a good transformer on this bad board and see if it works OK, by the way, the transistors were installed properly, right?

        Budm, I'm not sure if I wrote very clear.. it's late. But I installed the transformer from the bad board on the good board - the backlights lit OK, but there was a buzzing (the same buzzing I heard on the bad board before it blew out some unknown component). After about 30 seconds the fuse blew. So there is no question the transformer is bad. BTW: I did also try the transformer from the good board on the bad board - board is still bad. I'm sure there is more damage on the bad board than just the transformer at this point. I have everything back the way it was originally now and accept the fact I have one good monitor and one bad monitor not worth repairing....

            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....

            HP X360 convertible battery blown fuse error, not charging
            by drscoot
            HP Modelnumber: 14-dh0061nb​
            This laptop had a shorted cap on a Vcore section. After replacement is works again. But there is still a battery issue.
            The battery is HT03XL and with the built-in component test from HP, in the Power section, I get an error: Logic State: Calibration required (20), Charge state: Blown Fuse (42)
            I have another same battery, also with error: Logic State: Very Weak (70), Charge state: Blown Fuse (42)
            And a third battery TF03XL (looks identical) with error: Logic State: OK (0), Charge state: Blown Fuse (42)
            All these 3 batteries are charging...

            Carver CM-1090 - Power relay clicking on & off, then fuse blown after 20-30 seconds of power cycling.
            by beetle1303
            I gotten a Carver CM-1090 amplifier from a friend who has kept it in storage for decades. Opened it up, thick layer of dust cumulated everywhere. Vacuumed it semi-cleaned, and blown off as much as possible the remaining dust. This is a 220V version.

            On initial powered up with nothing connected - it works with all the lights and button indicator lit up as pressed, etc. I then powered off, connected a CD player into the CD RCA input and powered it on. It seemed to work for a short while and when I turned the volume up and down to see the the VUs works, the power started to clicked off...

            la-c582p blown transistor
            by mawa1105
            I found a blown transistor (q24) in the picture. I replaced it, and it blew again 🤔
            If I measure the Voltage while turned on without the transistor on the pads, it is 10V, 3.3V, 0V The resistance if turned on: High, High, 0.
            Anny idea how I could proceed?

            Gigabyte 980TI Windforce - Blown PCIE Fuse
            by whc14765
            Hey,

            I have a Gigabyte 980TI Windforce. No shorts on the main 8 pin PCIE power connectors. The 8 phase buck converter inductors are showing 2.5ohms.

            The card doesn't power up at all - no lights, no fans, nothing. I noticed that all of the 8 phase inductors are showing 0V. I couldn't find a fuse for the 8pin power connectors.

            I did notice that the PCIE x16 connector 12V line has a fuse F3 (10A marked on it) which is blown. It is reading 16ohms on one end.

            1st Question: Is there some logic on the board that checks the 12V on the PCIE x16 bus connector...
