    No code

    No Test

    Thx

  • Re: iMAC G5 PSU (again.. sigh)!

    Well....

    This is the first time I have used this part
    So.. we will see if it does the trick
    Will do load testing and see how this plays out

    Have another of the same PSU model (and got a working delta)
    What would you typically use for ZD6?

    Ok

    Zener ZD6 - NXP BZV55-B16,115, Mouser P/N - 771-BZV55-B16115
    Diode D2 - Fairchild FDLL4148_D87Z, Mouser P/N - 512-FDLL4148D87Z

    Update

    This unit had a bad Q1
    I replaced D2 and ZD6 anyway
    Replaced Q1 with a 350mW part

    Seems to be ok again

    Now... load testing
    Any thoughts on using an ATX go/no go PSU tester
    with the cables mapped to the Apple PSU?

    Ok... before people start saying no; this is just for
    future use with these PSU, before, that is,
    I get my hands dirty

    How would you handle 24V on an ATX tester

  • Re: iMAC G5 PSU (again.. sigh)!

    Y - recapped the PSU
    All of them except the main large can lytics for the primary and PFC
    Someone had been there before me - did part of the job

    Funny, post recap
    Got the unit to start (with 15-16 jumpered)
    Now it won't - very odd....
    So will check Q1 and ZD6 - thx

    Does the earth tag in the PSU need attachment to the PSU case?
    It was not with this PSU

    Will get the PSU right before the logic board recap

    Will check the posts as recommended

  • Re: Harman Kardon AVI-100 Receiver

    Thanks for responding

    Well.. well.. well

    Seems the IR is ok.
    Did originally test this under flu tubes in the kitchen.

    However...
    This unit is going into protect at slightly high volumes say 9.45 - 10 pm
    Odd.

    I did check all of the O/P for main L & R out of cct. - these test ok
    I replaced the O/P for the centre and rear - transistors and drive.

    Maybe the speakers (small Sony midi hifi unit types) are difficult to drive
    Unlikely as they...

    HP ML150 G3 servers

    Have an issue with CPU support on this

    There are two mobos available
    399971-001 410426-001 for earlier dual core only CPU systems
    436356-001 436718-001 for later dual and quad core CPU systems

    I have a 399971-001
    This runs ok with 2 of Xeon 5050 (dual core) - 4 cores in total
    Also runs ok with 1 of Xeon E5335 (quad core) - 4 cores in total
    Will not run with 2 of E5335 - just hangs
    All voltage LEDs read green
    Have update to latest BIOS

    Before I go any further with testing

  • Harman Kardon AVI-100 Receiver

    Seems to have issues with IR receiver (eye) in the unit

    The part is a Hitachi TEMT5380 according to the service manual
    Can't find these
    This is a 38kHz part
    Have been able to find a datasheet for TFMT5xxx - seems to be (newer) revision
    These are TEMIC
    Is TEMIC now Vishay or Atmel?

    The remote commander control handset appears to be ok

    Hi

    Thx for responding
    Ok.

    The picture of the pot - second pdf only illustrates
    the type of pot and mech. footprint I require.
    Trust me, the damaged pot is destroyed beyond repair.
    But where can I get the correct pot?

    The leftmost three switches in the second pdf are damaged
    The plastic blue material is the internals of each switch
    A normal switch, black colour can be seen to the right
    I know these switches are broken, they do no mechanically
    work correctly. I have...

    Yamaha AX-430

    Rec'd this item as damaged.
    The item has been dropped.
    This is a project for the kids bedroom (when fixed).

    The front panel source selection pcb has been broken.
    It is only a single side pcb so, I should be able to repair this.

    I am having issues however with sourcing replacement parts.
    These include;
    1. A number of source selector switches
    2. A balance pot

    There is a loudness knob missing on the front as well
    as the Volume control knob. Both the pots and the
    mech. fixings are in place though....

  • Re: Vestel 17MB18 Chassis

    Thanks for the info

    Have advised client, it would be best to prepare an
    insurance report as unit is beyond economical repair.
    I don't want to waste money stripping this unit to
    replace lamps. It has damage to the LCD panel
    (a scratch) and would realise little (if any) resale
    value.

    This is a really cheap TV. Client should be able
    to get replaced with contents insurance.

    May use parts for the purpose of testing CCFLs etc.

    Thanks again

  • Vestel 17MB18 Chassis

    Hi

    Been some time
    Have been passed a Dual DLCD2001 20 inch widescreen LCD TV for repair.
    This experiences loss of backlight but has video and sound.
    However, the odd thing is when I change channel or use AV, the backlight
    will momentary come back on and go off again
    Everything else with this set appears to be ok otherwise.

    Anyway, suspected bad caps and found the usual suspects with
    bad ESR. These were around the PSU and these have all been replaced
    with Pana FM. Additionally, I found both of the only lytic caps on...

    Technics Service Manuals

    Hi

    Can anybody help with Technics Service Manuals?
    I live in the UK and have acquired;
    1 of SL-P222A CD Player with optical O/P
    1 of SA-GX200L Receiver

    The CD player appears to be ok
    I have serviced the decent Philips CDM4/19 transport
    Will probably use a modern DAC with it, if it O/Ps S/PDIF - should do.
    The receiver is only playing mono.
    Appears the balance control is not working correctly
    It is a bit scratchy - so deoxit or replacement

    Any help appreciated

  • Server Backup & Storage

    Looking for suggestions for HDD based server backup.
    Considering options for a small network of 50 users.
    Ideally, would want SATA HDD based backup unit to fit server.
    Alternatively, would consider NAS with removeable storage
    across LAN but suspect there may be bandwidth issues

    Please advise

    Thanks for your consideration

  • Replacement for KA5M0165R

    Need this for a DVD/Karaoke open frame PSU repair.

    This is a Fairchild part no longer in production.
    The recommended replacement by Fairchild is a FSDM0265RN.
    This latter part uses pin 5 whereas the former does not.

    However, it appear for US import purposes (something
    I will not be doing!) there is a court finding document
    against Fairchild on the website prohibiting use of these
    and other PWM parts as they have found to have infracted
    the patents of a competitor.

    Any help here as to a replacement?
