    Whirlpool L1373 repair attempt

    You put the known good test capacitor in parallel with the "suspect" one. [Mod note please learn how to quote some one :) ]

    Capacitor charging

    Sir Mark34 . . . . . . . Wel l l l l . . . . . I'll just throw in my . . . . năm đồng . . . . . as per : " I am almost sure its correct . " Well then . . . . . just explain, to us, the power loop flow of the oscillator transistor ? I will rework the units schematic with all of...

    Triac replacement

    " What do you think by mail order supplier in Croatia? " I am interpreting that you are saying . . . . What do you "mean" by mail order supplier in Croatia? I meant where have you bought electronics parts before, if you were unable to locate them locally. Apparently E-bay by your response ...

    Triac replacement

    . Sir Pexy . . . . . . . Thinking more about it . . . . I was considering a full fledged bona-fide soldering station on that Triac utilization. You might merely have a controlled temperature soldering iron only, built much in the order of the one that I have shown below. That schematic...

    Winter down under time

    Excluding its FRAGILITY factor . . . . a Coleman lanterns mantel activated by the strategically placed candle flame underneath it, puts out a hell of a lot of white light.

    Triac replacement

    . Sir Pexy . . . . . That researches out as being a 400 volt at 600 Ma triac that is having logic level gate sensitivity. Housed in a puny plastic T0-92 case. OBVIOUSLY its being relegated to some lower level sensing / drive application in the controller circuit . . .with a much HEAVIER...

    Whirlpool L1373 repair attempt

    Sir Maxwell I'm going to dremel the board tomorrow with a bristle brush But NOT a wire/stainless/brass brush . . . . Your best friend that I see for improving the PRESENT abysmal condition of the boards cleanliness is denatured alcohol-MEK-Acetone or Xylene to get it really-really clean...

    Wiper Motor Wiring

    . Sir Darren . . . . . Do I need to take any safety precautions working with this motor, electrocution? . . . . .Just don't get daft and slash both wrists and put the then bared flesh across the 24V. . . . . . The gear down is double staged.. At their nominal speed on the basic motor, if...

    Wi Lite wireless lighting switch

    Of ALLLLLLL of your other given numbers . . .this one seems to be THE one . Since you have a capacitor tester . . . see if 0 decimal 68 ufd or 6.8 ufd is being its magical value ? Seems like more BULK size would be needed, for that units voltage rating . . .in it being a 6.8 ufd.. BUT the...

    Whirlpool L1373 repair attempt

    Sir Maxwell Here is the best detailed schematic info available . . .'fo free . . . . plus I ALSO put the manufacturers power I.C. data sheet, with its typical utilization / application at its bottom. " from what I can make out, it does look like Edd got the lower power rail incorrect as I...

    Wi Lite wireless lighting switch

    Could you look closer at the BEEEEEEG film capacitor and see if its part number agrees with any of these:. Possibly under that foam block on top ? http://www.mouser.com/ds/2/212/kemetr46-200585.pdf Edd

    Whirlpool L1373 repair attempt

    Sir Maxwell . . . . . If D29 and D30 are good . . . . . . . as well as the isolated -12 and -5 rectifier diodes on the other side of the Switch Mode Transformer. Pull LNK 304 off the board . . . . put a 60 watt incandescent lamp in series with your AC input line that is coming in at the top...

    Wi Lite wireless lighting switch

    Sir bushtech . . . . . You can see my small black lines showing there being a connect between a top anode and a top cathode of the top two diodes. At the bottom end a HEAVY black line shows connections between a bottom anode and cathode of the bottom set of diodes. Then the set of anodes...

    Capacitor charging

    Ah-haaaa, now we have the further needed information . . . . this is related to a photoflash unit. With several concepts of operation faults being seen. Typical photo-flash power supply circuits have a special main storage electrolytic that exhibits a very-very low leakage, in order to hold...

    Capacitor charging

    . Sir Mark34 . . . . . . . Hoping that your English to Romanian translation skills are now working flawlessly . . . . Well here goes. . . I will tell you what I think that I sees . . . and then you feed back what you see . . . and think that you saw, that you thought that you would...

    Power supply for CNC spindle

    Sir Wildmine . . . . . . . First . . . . . in looking at the router specs . . . . it optimizes out at its greatest capability if being supplied with 48VDC at 8 amps . . . to eventually use up to 400 watts. The supply that you designated was only outputting 12VDC, thereby potentially giving...

    Need to know pin out (input output voltage ) of an old UPS Transformer

    Sir Prohor. . . . . . . Once your guys have zeroed in on the wires that go to specific windings by ohmming tests, I feel that the AC line input that I mentioned will fall into place. Just confirm my assumption of there being a higher/lower line voltage option. HECK . . . . there ? might ...

    Sony TC-WR770/870

    Sir Darryl . . . . . . . Of your page 1 photo submitted . . . . 4th schematic page down. I was reading the schematic fine from A18---26 down to M18---26 and then you had just chopped off N-O-P 18 thru 26 where the vital info was located. Looking within the relevant portion that I can see...

    Wi Lite wireless lighting switch

    Sir Bushtech. . . . . . . Will add on more info later but, for now, can you give the cap values and voltages of the 3 electrolytic caps BLUE, ORANGE and CHARTREUSE And see if those 4 diodes aren't just being conventional diodes ( measure Vf's )and are the parts of a FWB feeding into...
