hi all!
As a newbie I hope I'm posting in the right section and that my question makes sense in these forums.
I have been using this piece of equipment to control flashes in cameras. After using it for a few days it started smelling like if something was burning and it wouldn't power up anymore. It is pretty old, from the 60's at least, and finding another one is almost mission impossible so I would like to get it repaired.
I opened it and noticed two things.
1st: multiple of components are leaking. They have number 182 (or maybe L82?) printed on them. They have 3 legs/connections to the board. Based on what I have found they are transistors. Is this right? is there any way I can determine their values? is there any way I can find replacements for those?
2nd: two components burnt. they look like the part in the second picture. It looks like it has a marking like this on top: |<
what are they? can they be replaced?
Thank you very much for your help beforehand!
