    Optoma Hd146x with bad powersupply

    Hi
    I am repairing a Optoma HD beamer with a bad powersupply. It has a blown 6.3A fuse and a burned coil in the mains line.
    Any ideas where to get a filter like that? I am little surprised that the mains is directly connected to both lines on the coil. One wire has a bit of more isolation (light color) but still both mainlines are really close together like this. It seems to me this is asking for trouble. I mean i have seen them with seperate sides but never like this. Maybe rewire? Any advice?

    its a filter, you can replace it with a couple of jump wires to test the psu
    and you should because something feels wrong about that filter burning unless too much current went through it

      Just unwind it a half of a turn and solder it back on. Done. A half of a winding or even a whole turn doesn’t matter much. I try to cut only that much than I really have to. Just make sure that not more isn’t wrong with the PSU like a shorted mosfet in the primary.

        Replaced the filter with two wires and it works again.

        Luckily nothing else damaged. I guess the wire may have been damaged at production.

          A lighting strike nearby can do that. I’ve seen this a few times. For me I would just have unwound a half of a turn or a whole turn and stuck that filter back in its place.

            How can I test coil whether it is really broken or not?
            by chth96
            I have old game console which have connected to 220v outlet by previous owner and It is not able to turn on.

            I checked continuity of fuse in PSU unit with a multimeter which is shown in the below picture with a orange circle around it, and It seems that fuse became open circuit.

            I also found that as well as bulging capacitor, there is unidentified coil which has residue all over its surface

            Bad mains power causing TV malfunctions?
            by chopduel
            Hi,
            I've been living in the same apartment for about 5 years now, and moved into it with my old Samsung plasma TV (PS51F5500).
            Ever since we've moved in, we would sometimes see strange power-cycling behavior. For example:
            • TV would randomly turn off then back on.
            • TV would turn off and the LED light would blink for a while (over a minute sometimes) until eventually it went back to a regular off state and could be turned on
            • Sometimes it would require disconnecting the mains cord from the TV, waiting several minutes, then putting it back in and turning the TV back on. This had limited

            What part is this coil from a MacBook A2681 ?
            by waterchill
            Hi everyone

            I'm struggling to point out what part is this? It is a coil, but the parameters say: 10OHM - 50% - 1A - 0.05Ohm

            So it is a coil with 0201 dimensions, 1A max current, 0.05ohm resistance but what is 10ohm? For a coil we need specs like 1uH or so.

            IAny ideas? It is from a MacBook A2681

            Thank you...

            ADP-160FR ps4 slim PSU, shuts down under load and has severe coil whine.
            by Gjackson
            Hi all, the PSU originally had a no 12v issue where as soon as I bridged the 5v standby to the ACDC_stby the psu would switch itself off completely. I monitored the voltage on the main filter caps while doing this and saw that the PFC was bringing the voltage up to around 360vdc before shutting down. Given that I saw that as a little low I replaced the PFC feedback resistors from a donor PSU and that got it to power on, without a load no coil whine is present and there is a stable 12v however as soon as I put it in the PS4 it starts whining really badly, however 12v remains stable but after a...

            How Can I identify IFT coil?
            by chth96
            I have a CD unit which is came from saturn game console.
            It always perceived Any retail CD or CD-R as Audio-CD.
            Of course I changed laser head and adjust pot of laser head nearby, but It always failed to perceive as saturn game CD.
            I think that this problem probably begins When I tighten IFT coil too hard with small screw driver and suddenly I heard some kind of snap or cracking sound


            I desoldered this IFT coil and It is 7pin IFT coil and written "4120 009 62VK" on the surface.


            Is there any way to identify its frequency in order...
