2465B - Replaced RIFAs and now won't POST
2465B
s/n 57xxx When I first powered it up, the lights would all come on for a split second, then they would go out, then it would cycle through the self-tests, failing at TEST 05, so I cleaned up the A5 corrosion and replaced a few components there. I also replaced the RIFAs on the power supply. Following that, when I turn it on, the lights all come on, but they don't go out. All J119 points are well within spec. I am a little confused at times when following the service manual, for example the troubleshooting procedure said TP201 should be +10v, but the schematic seems to indicate it should be +5v, which is what I'm getting. I'm not sure how to proceed at this point. I'd like to go as far as possible before I am forced to buy a new oscilloscope to repair this one. Thanks |
Well, I think the first step would be the re-check the work you did on A5 board, e.g. soldering of the components, since it seems that the problem has got worse after changing the components. I assume , when you mentioned corrosion that the SMD capacitors leaked. If J119 voltages are correct, I'd assume that Rifa caps were changed correctly. So, again, I suggest check the work you did on A5.
