Help needed identifying transistor

Hi!

I'm trying to repair a 24 Volt refridgerator commonly used in charter
busses. I've found one pair of identical transistors where one of them have
an C-E short. The transistors are located in the control-unit providing
power for the compressor-motor.

The transistor is produced by Motorola (logo found) and are marked TE2162.
Also, its in SOT93 package. Testing the known good one, tells me that it is
an Darlington-transistor.

It seems impossible to find an replacement or equivalent for this component
and every shop I visit tells me that this is a special produced
Motorola-component and that I might as well forget about it in the first
place. Well, I would not...

Can anybody help?


Greetings, Jørn

 

You should trace out the circuit it is in to see if it is a
complementary pair. If so, then the good one is PNP, then the bad one
is NPN.
