At my work, one of our corporate switches died. When plugged in, not even the power light will light up. It's a D-Link DGS-1016D. I opened it up and visually it looks fine. It has a Delta PSU in it, can't read the primary but the secondary caps on it are Ltec. On the mainboard, it's plagued with the dreaded Evercon
I took out both of the PCB's and nothing looks burned on the bottom of them. I checked this because the little cooling fan on the side went bad so I originally thought that something overheated.
I won't have a multimeter till Monday but I'm wondering if this could even be a capacitor problem. I don't trust Evercon AT ALL, so I'm wondering if they died without showing symptoms since they are such garbage caps? Or even the Ltec's on the PSU, because I'm thinking if it won't even turn on that it's a PSU problem. Any input would be appreciated!
