Re: control 24 psu repair for $40!
I know it's an old thread but...
My C24 PSU just took a dump yesterday (of course at the start of an important TV mix that airs globally at 6:00 AM Monday). I called Skynet, their price is $50 now. I sent the PSU out 2nd day air which cost me as much as the repair. I hope to get it back quickly. Mixing with the mouse is no fun.

I changed "ALL" the Electrolitics capacitors and one Bridge Rectifier(the bigger square form black bridge rectifier), but the problem continue until!....maybe any IC or DIODE will be the problem. Thanks again! Opacheco. Last edited by opacheco; 01-04-2014 at 10:04 PM. |

Re: control 24 psu repair for $40!
My first post with avid the topic C24 power supply. c20 is very near a very hot transformer - so cap goes out. The correct repair is mount cap on bottom of board away from transformer. 24/7 use typical is 3-6 months depending on cap quality, Proper repaired bottom of board is on second year, Note: leave enough lead to fold over about 1/8 from board add a silicone glue to insulate . AVID I am looking for tech work I ask did any of your guys catch this. A repair is good, ah finding the problem, then reparing the whole problem is correct. Sorry any of you needed repairs more than once. Next sugested add on is molex plugs to secondary wiring area needs of console, then PS just unplugs for simple repair and leaves away to have a second PS that can swap in minutes, I have a happy client now. Steven Brown looking for military grade cap set [ all caps on board] will list if I find source[s]

I got the exchanged PSU back from them almost a year ago. It's been turned on a few hours almost every day since then with no issues. Unfortunately, I think Skynet has disappeared. I tried to find them recently for a friend. The phone number I had is no longer working and their website is gone. I guess I'll hit up SDBSDB if I have any issues in the future.
