Hi all, VCR came in dead. Found and replaced the following bad/blown parts in SMPS: Q1 - C4418 Q2 - ECG382 D02 - IN4148 C09 - 22uf/16v Now when I hit the power "ON" button the display blinks once at that's all folks. Checked all the secondary caps - OK, I believe a zener is breaking down under load but no sure which one. Has anyone got an ideal?
