Take a look at this....from the DS31590...typical disaster ------------------------------------------------------------ Text pasted from WinSTIPS 2.0 http://www.ServiceSoftware.com --------------------------------------------------------------- SANYO DS31590 Dead, After Surge Q402 Hot Shorted - D1879 D612 Opto-Isolator Open - Pc817 Q635 - Control Or Driver For Opto C536 Sub Nte 85 Shorted Q695 - " " A608 Sub Nte 290a Shorted Q693 - " " C536 Sub Nte 85 Shorted Ic681 - 5v Regulator Ic 78l05 Shorted D1901 - 7.5v Zener (Protect Diode I'M Guessing For 5v Protection) Leaking. Note: When Replacing Hot I Strongly Recommend Testing For Regulation Before Powering Set Or The B+ Will Shoot To Over 200v And Destroy Any Hot. This Can Be Done Simply By Leaving The Hot Out Of Circuit And Hooking 40 To 100w Light Bulb From Collector To Gnd And Plugging Set In Without Turning On And Check B+ For 75 To 80v. Then You May Power Set Up If It Will And Check B+ For 130v. --------------------------------------------------------------- ========================== Jeff Stielau Shoreline Electronics Repair 344 East Main Street Clinton,CT 06413 860-399-1861 860-664-3535 (fax) jstielau@xxxxxxxx ======================== ----- Original Message ----- From: "Terry J Hutchison" <sony1@xxxxxxxx> To: <techassist@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>; <techassist@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Wednesday, January 19, 2005 5:38 PM Subject: [TechAssist] Re: (update)Bear of a Sanyo DS35590 HOT shorts at plug in >I put the unit on my variac with HOT removed.
