Agilent E4406A Pulling down the power supply not starting
I have one E4406A with the same problem. I didn't disassemble it. I saw comments that could be the power source. Do I check the power source directly?

It has the same characteristic sound. And it does the same as the video in these links. Strange that before it was working perfectly. |
I will tell you the tests I did.
I turned off all the accessories.
I did a good cleaning.
I only left the motherboard with the fan controller.
I replaced all the 100k 1206 and 150k 1206 resistors. Same problem. I measured the old resistors and checked that they were good, and put them back in.
The source LED turns on (green), but I hear a noise when it pulses.
The red LEDs on the fan control board sometimes light up (red) and sometimes not.
Same problem continues. |
Do you have the power supply loaded? Switching supplies often don't
like running at no/reduced load. -Chuck Harris On Thu, 11 Apr 2024 13:04:40 -0700 "Jesse Joabe" <jessejoabe2007@...> wrote: Hi |
Switching power supplies can not work without enough load.
They go into a cycle where they turn on, and then off. You need to connect a resistor to their big output that will load the supply to 1/10th its rated current or more. -Chuck Harris On Fri, 12 Apr 2024 03:08:30 -0700 "Jesse Joabe" <jessejoabe2007@...> wrote: Sorry.
