Something isn't adding up about the labeling of that diode, I can't find it anywhere in that 3-leg form factor, as it's 10a 45v can we sub it out for a higher ampage?

So yep according to this too the part should be CTB-33S a 12A 35V SDPR, not sure what the hell that is that's in there now then.

Hi
Assuming the package is a TO220
Then yes that would certainly be worth a try.

The CTB33S is rated less than that. So an overrated part is better in most cases.

I couldn't find any info about the c10p048 either.

Obviously be certain you use the original insulators when mounting it.

Pete

Sounds good I will grab them on the way home.

I'm assuming you are in the UK, so you may be in the land of Nod by the time I start on this tonight. So when I pop all these confirmed components back in place (although I've still yet to properly test SCR1) what should I do from there?

Thanks for all the help, I'm sure I must be absorbing some of this as I go along

Hi

Be careful I have just checked the package style for ctb33s it seems to be a TO247 rather than TO220

Does your supplier have any other diodes in this package of a similar rating?


Yeah I am in the UK it's 9:21 here so not in the land of nod just yet   :D

The things  to check once all the parts are back in.

The insulation of all devices from the heatsink (particularly the centre tag)
 

Check for a short circuit across the HT rail (R1 to Gnd)
The collectors of both switching transistors to ground.
Collector to emitter of both switching transistors again looking for short circuits.

I would be surprised if the Scr is faulty but just check it pin to pin all round looking for shorts.

I would actually advise the first test of the PSU be done disconnected from the game board.
If you could connect a lamp across the 5v rail as a load instead. say a car tail lamp bulb

The last thing you want is for a fault to risk adage to the logic board.

From the circuit there appears to be an over voltage trip which will shut down the 5v rail if it goes much above 5.6v

Good luck

Pete

EDIT

Yeah that diode should handle it with ease.

Something I don't understand now that I understand the layout a little.

Why didn't i get any power on any of the pins even 24v 12v and -5v if it was just the +5v rail that was nuked, was that because nothing got past R1?

You guys are so lucky over there.

I have restored a Rockola jukebox though which was a nice challenge

That s a good question

I think t likely that R1 failed before the SCR had chance to fire.
Once R1 was open of course then no power would reach either switching transistor.

It's almost as if R1 is there to protect the fuse lol

Please be careful

Remember a golden rule about working with electricity. One hand in your pocket.

That was drummed into me many years ago.

Beware bits of flying plastic lol

Been there,done that got the T shirt.

Things seems to go wrong a lot quicker over here with twice the mains voltage though.  :o

No joy at Fry's they only had the Nte 6090 which was the T022 package and they were all out of the C2325 clone so I'm going to have to order online

Sanded down the heavy fill primer tonight and then did two coats of regular white primer. Not very exciting stuff

Final sanding done for the sides. New blue vinyl is arriving today so hopefully by tonight all cab cosmetics will be complete. The black marks on the back of the panel edge are paint from blacking out the back of the cab, not horrible chips lol

Hey Pete,

I was going to order that D9 replacement from Digikey or mouser, having trouble finding a none NTE alternative to the 2sc2535, would be nice if I could get them all at the same place, can you advise on that.

Maybe this for 2sc2535???

http://www.mouser.com/ProductDetail/STMicroelectronics/BUL89/?qs=sGAEpiMZZMutXGli8Ay4kAuOt55Alb1Hn0BvgJit9GA%3d

and this for the CTB-33S replacement?

http://www.mouser.com/ProductDetail/Vishay-Semiconductors/VS-MBR4045WTPBF/?qs=sGAEpiMZZMtQ8nqTKtFS%2fJSNqGZMTeJU2xdAUbkQHOc%3d

and this for the 2w020 R1

Hi

Transistor looks good

Diode looks good ( a bit overkill on the current lol)

Resistor you listed was 0.02 ohms oooops

Look at this one instead
They  don't seem to stock 20 ohms but 18 would do

Looks like the power supply is on the truck for delivery today, so with a little luck we can power everything up and hope that blowing up the last supply didn't do any damage to the boards, also we'll see if all the reseating and cleaning of the socket chips has solved our crashing problem - fingers crossed.
