    Thanks, Bob. That answers my core question. On examining the board I did find a solder connection that was loose, so I re-soldered it. There was still no output on the leads, however, a similar charger was acting likewise, so I began to wonder if the charger needed to see a load for any voltage...

    Thanks for the answers. I tested the board directly in-circuit, and while voltage is inputted to it, it's 0 volts out.I've removed and inspected it for loose parts, etc, but it all looks fine. It's got a fair amount if chips and transistors and without a circuit diagram or more knowledge that I...

    Simple way to salvage a car charger?

    Howdy all, I have a 10 amp Napa car battery charger, the circuit board of which has died. The transformer still puts out a healthy DC current at maybe 16 volts. My thinking is to simply put in (only) a hefty 12v IC regulator and use it to bring a battery up the the point (12v) where it will...
