Possible Causes
Failed auxiliary power supply on control or power board, Short circuit on 5 V or 12 V rail, Damaged electrolytic capacitors, Surge damage from grid transients
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: Internal power supplies are connected to mains; only qualified personnel should service them.
- Observe behavior: If LEDs flicker or the unit repeatedly reboots, suspect the low-voltage supply.
- Inspect visually: With power off, open the charger and look for bulging or leaking capacitors, burnt components, or discoloration near the auxiliary supply section.
- Measure rails: With appropriate caution, measure the low-voltage rails (e.g., 5 V, 12 V) at test points or connectors. Deviations from nominal indicate a failing supply.
- Check for shorts: With power off, measure resistance between low-voltage rails and ground. Very low resistance may indicate a shorted component on the control board.
- Replace board: In most cases, the auxiliary supply is integrated; replace the entire control or power board rather than attempting component-level repair.
