Hello,
I have a original Xbox 1.6 that I am tinkering with.
Originally it had 5 bad 3300uF 6.3v caps near the power connector on the motherboard. I replaced those with some low ESR replacements and the Xbox worked good for a couple months. Then the other day I pressed the power button and got nothing.
I swapped in a good PSU from another 1.6 Xbox and it fired right up.
On the bad PSU I don't see any obvious signs of damage and the fuse tested good with my DMM.
I'm not getting any voltage readings at the power connector that plugs into the motherboard.
I'm somewhat of a newb but where would be a good place to start? what part is likely bad?
The PSU is labeled Tuscany.
thanks
