Hello, every one, I'm having a problem with this inverter and don't know where to ask or if this is the correct place to do so. My inverter is a Peak Performance 175watt TailGate inverter with the model No: PKC0BN, it was blowing its fuse as soon as I flipped the switch on. One time I plugged it to the car lighter with the switch on the "ON" position and it blew my car's fuse. I took it apart and checked to see if there was something wrong visible inside, hoping it was some damaged capacitor or a resistor to replace but the caps and diodes were OK. Amid testing some resistors I saw a metal plate holding two transistors to a heat sink near the transformer, so I took the plate out and found a transistor has cracked (I don't know how) so I decided to take all transistors off the board and test them with my multi meter. The hard part have been trying to identify them in order to test them properly and replace them in case it's needed.
I tried searching online for the codes but the codes on the transistors are not found on any codes list I saw (pro electron, JIS, JEDEC, etc) I'm no technician but I like to learn and I have repaired a couple tvs, DVD players, et cetera. Can you help me on this? Is this the right place to ask? Thanks in advance :-)
