Hi there im a relative newbe and tend to take on projects that are more complex than i should be doing!! But i cant help that, i love fixing stuff cos of the satisfaction of it all!!
Anyway!
Ive troubleshooted on a photocopier m/c and have come 2 the conclusion that the Main pcb is the cause of the fault.
Photocopier- Minolta/Dialta Di 181 125v 3a
The fault code appearing is- co510.........Abnormal low fusing temp
I've tested thefusing thermoswitch and its ok
Also done fault finding chart & all pointing to Main pcb
SOOooooo!!!!!!!!!!! the qestion is Where the hell do i start, on the board?
Theres about 1000 smd's on board
30 IC's+, and about 10 very daunting Square jobby IC's, with about 100 connections on them
Ive got all the kit inc. logic probe, m.meter etc etc. But no Oscillascope or the like!
I know its alot to askof a mear mortal but PLEASE HELP
I can hook it up to power, as ive got bench supply. Just need afew pointers of where to start?
Testing smd's on board, i know u can come into problems regarding false readings ? Is there anyway i can test all these components without leading myself up the garden path?
Most grateful
Paul
