I have the dubious honor of attempting the repair of an InFocis Model LP340.
My observations to this point:
Main fuse open.
U1, an Opto Coupler on the power supply is using smoke to signal it's
demise.
Any one in the know as to the feasibility of this repair, or is this a
smoking pipe dream?
In focus wants $1000+ to repair. Customer informs me that he just purchased
a brand new unit for the same price, which has a brand new $400 light bulb
in it. His old one has 500+ hours on it.
Before I spend a lot of time on this, I would like your opinion.
As always, your time and effort is appreciated.
Ty
