Re: Replacing 4 diodes with a bridge
Another 4 diode replacement... just wanted to double check to make sure this is correct

Hi,
I'm learning about motherboard repair and I believe I've traced the issue down for the South Bridge on the particular motherboard I'm working on. My path of concluding that:
- There's no sign of any attempt to power on when pushing the power button.
- No PSON signal is reaching the 24-pin ATX connector.
- The Super IO chip is receiving the PS_SWITCH signal from the power button and is relaying this signal back to the South Bridge.
- The Super IO is not receiving the S_SLPS#_R signal back from the South Bridge
- If I pull the Super IO S_SLPS#_R pin... -
Hi. I need help from wiser guys. I am amateur in electronics and can't figure this out by myself.
I bought faulty speakers, M-Audio AV40's. Other speaker has all the electronics in it and the other speaker is just passive one powered by the other speaker's amp. Original problem with the speakers was loud buzzing. I figured out that there is something wrong with the capacitors. I went ahead and replaced every electrolytic capacitor on the PCB. The caps are good quality and have the same values as the original ones.
After replacing the caps I started testing out the speaker. It seemed...09-10-2025, 10:20 AM -
I have two of these soundbars, both with the exact same issue. The soundbars were hit by lightning and no longer power on. The PSU does not output any voltage on the DC side. When plugged into mains, the DC output is a stone-cold 0.0 volts. The AC side of the PSU seems to be functioning correctly (as far as I can tell). When checking the plugged-in PSU with my thermal camera, the OB5269CP PWM controller (U1) and the two resistors (R12 and R13) pulse on and off. These run to the positive DC side of the bridge rectifier (among other components along the way).
There's no physical damage... -
Dear members,
I have a linear variable power supply with unknown brand name that I used for voltage injection.
Then it failed. I discovered that its transistors (Q1 and Q2) are shorted.
In addition, I discovered that its zener diodes are defective.
I can replace the burned transistors.
But I do not know the model of the zener diodes. the model number is not marked on the zener diodes.
Therefore, I cannot replace the zener diodes.
I do not want to test the zener diodes in a test circuit to discover their model or value.
no schematics are available... -
Bad symptoms when Ivy Bridge CPU (3rd-gen 22nm) is installed:- Won't boot OS (just blank screen or stucks at asus logo, monitor is turned on) with hangs at debug (post) code A3;
- USB stick with MS-DOS can be loaded via F8 boot menu;
- Other OSes won't load - hangs or goes reboot;
- Postponed for several seconds reaction to Alt-Ctrl-Del, Reset and Power buttons;
- An operating system starts loading but won't finish if it's left only 1 CPU core in BIOS settings;
- Cleared CMOS many times;
- Flashed different versions of BIOS in a CH341 programmer;
- Updated
