Hello
I am a novice here but electronics enthusiast and general all round tinker.
I have a Seasonic Platinum Series 860W PSU which does not turn on my PC. I get no fan spin and I have used the jump start method with the PSU out of the case and it doesn't turn on either. I believe this PSU doesn't need a load to begin working.
I didn't see any bulging caps, burnt areas or burnt smell from the PSU.
This is the same PSU as in this review: https://www.anandtech.com/show/5464/...-series-860w/4
I have gone as much as using a screwdriver to discharge the capacitors (The 2 big brown ones) and then check the continuity on the fuse which shows as working (basically I get a bleep)
I have access to a Kaiweets HT118A multimeter and a Pinecil soldering iron but how would I go about diagnosing the issue and what should my next steps be please?
