    Hayward PS dual voltage only putting out 24v no more 12v

    Can't figure this one out. No shorts. No more 12v out only 24v. This is a power supply for a Hayward salt water control board. Tested everything except for rectifier, transformer and disc caps. I'm not sure how the 12v is generated - I thought it should come from the transformer but all low side wires are grounded. Opto's are working. I looked for a bad transistor/diode on the bottom but no luck -help!

      I see a 5-lead device and inductor & diode near it on the sec heatsink.
      Likely a (LM2576?) "simple switcher" IC. Usually with an enable pin- trace that back and see what drives it.

      Only 24 comes from the transformer; 12 is derived from that via the buck converter.

          Thank you - Yes, with some afterthought, it would seem the 24v would be sent to the step down regulator LM2596T for the 12v out but it's only outputting.8v. The part that has me confused is that there are 8 wires coming from the transformer 4 on the high side and 4 on the low side. The 4 on the low side are all grounded. Still backtracking, board is covered in urethane coating, slow going.

              Hello,
              Have you found the solution? I have the same and also trying to figure out. Really pain to test due to conformal coating and have not found a way to strip it.
              Cheers,
              Fred

                  Original Xbox 1.0 PSU: Foxlink FTPS-0002 Rev. B. — 12 V low, 5 V high — transformer?
                  by ohren
                  Hello!

                  I'm looking at an original Xbox PSU: Foxlink ftps-0002 rev. B. The 12 V output is too low, and the 5 V output is too (?) high. Unfortunately I don't have an oscilloscope but only a DMM for diagnosis.

                  Measured voltages with no load:

                  After rectifier diodes
                  12V: 6.17 V
                  5V: 5.67 V

                  Secondary transformer pins AC measurement (really don't know if this says anything)
                  12V: 2-2.5 V
                  5V: 1.04 V


                  I also have another (working) Xbox psu from Delta. The same measures there, in order, being: 10.79,...

                  Is it possible for transformer substitution?
                  by mikey5791
                  Hi all,
                  Got this local made DC power supply (12/14V) given free as the transformer has melted. There is no marking or indication to identify what type or rating of transformer used.
                  Fyi,. I had a busted autogate mainboard with transformer with marking 13-0-13 . Is this the 13v dc type transformer?
                  My questions are
                  1. How do i test to see if the transformer is in good working condition?
                  2. Can this transformer (marking 13-0-13) be used to replace the melted transformer on the DC power supply?
                  Hope you guys understand what i was asking. My intention is...

                  3PHASE STEP-DOWN Transformer in Check
                  by dennis_elx33
                  Hello All,

                  i would like to post an interesting topic regarding 3-phase stepdown transformer which we suspect to cause an overcurrent (138A) which resulted to power tripped off of the HV power supply (80KV output).


                  Problem statement: Power tripped Off

                  Initial Problem: Found 2 IGBT and 2 rectifier diodes shorted (burnt).

                  Action Done:
                  1) Replaced the faulty parts with good spare.
                  2) Measured impedance of the 3phase input lines and found that L2 to L3 has 23.3ohm while other pairs are 51Kohm. This pins will...
