Friend brought me his PS5. Says the outlet killed it and his PC. Upon opening there was no voltage coming out of PSU. Took it apart and could see 2 traces were destroyed. I fixed it with some thin copper.
The rectifier bridge is bad, j48 and j49 were shorted, R9 is open. There are 3 other transistors and 1 diode that checked ok. Black on drain, red on source, 0.4v. Red on drain, black on source, 0.0v. OL between gate/source.
You can see in the pic with the 18N60M2 fet it has some gunk on the pins and you can kinda see some liquid in the screw hole on the PSU shell. Not sure where it all came from but its all along the inside of the shell. The fet was covered in the liquid when I opened the PSU.
Is it fine to use the GBU 1510 in place of the GBU 1508A?
Any suggestions on what other components I should check to see if they shorted those fets? What wattage does R9 look like? 5W? The body is about the same size as a bic pen.
Thanks
