Repair Log… (10/4/11)

 

MPU4 – PSU Fault

 

Fault diagnosis.

 

Machine continually resets. Initial inspection.

 

Electro-caps are probably 20+ years old.

C2 is dented. The whole set-up looks grim.

 

Remove the fixing screws and remove the power supply pcb. There are 3 electro caps which need replacing,

 

C1 = 4700uF - 63VDC

C2 = 15000uF - 25VDC

C3 = 1000uF - 16V

 

If  you are unsure about polarity, check the psu schematic here and buzz out the cathode to the red connector.

 

Repaired.
