Won't turn on. Power supply OK

Hi, My IP90 won't turn on. I tested the power supply with a meter & output seems fine. What do you suggest I do next?

  • rwarrior484 Feb 11, 2008

    No lights at all. Actually when I twist the unit & wave it around, for no apparent reason it comes on. Any ideas how to take it apart & look for sloppy connections? It's got to be simple. Ha!

    Thanks!

Do you get light of any sort? What is the switch set to at the back for voltage if you have this? Post back please lilacgerry xxx

    Obviously as you have noted when the unit is moved it does turn on, and yes this would seem to suggest a piece of hardware or a connection that has come loose or is only just making contact when you move the unit. Does the unit stay on permanently when it does go on or just go off agian? It can also suggest the actiual power supply is on the way out. Personally, i have never taken apart one of your units, but if you deside to, i would first contact a printer repairer, tell them the issue, and if they agree it is the power supply, ask for a free quote on a repalcement, and while on the phone, ask for their input on other issues it could be if it is not the power supply. Most printers have a plate over the power supply area with screws but yours may be different. Be advised it is at your own risk when you open a unit as sometimes you may not find what you wish or a part may inadvertantly come off or also cease to function. I did open my friends canon and we tightened her power supply on the inside but this may not be your issue. If youare not confident, take it to a repairer and get a free quote. lilacgerry xxx

    Hi, as an added afterthought actually, did you cheack the usb connection cable to the pc, or to the unit itself if it is attached to a pc (this will not help if it is a standalone unit). bye for now lilacgerry xxx

My Samsung TV has been clicking when I turn the power and then it won’t turn on. I unscrewed the back cover and tested both the X main in the Y main boards. I unplugged the Y main from the power supply and...

Id guess the power board is ok and the x board is bad as they use a voltage loop from the X to Y board, Ive seen this before but don't remember what I did to fix it, seems there were some bad MOSFET's on the x board. If you have a multi meter test those for shorts and see if you find any bad

MIne Whirlpool duet is having probloms please help me with it!

see this causes and fix it. God bless you
User Control and Display Board If the washer won't start, the user control and display board may be defective. Check for power to the washer first.

Timer If the washer won't start the timer might be defective. This part is often misdiagnosed, check other components before replacing this timer.

Line Fuse If the washer won't start the line fuse might have blown.

Thermal Fuse If the washer won't start the thermal fuse may have blown. It can be tested for continuity. Watch our fuse testing video for more information.

Line Fuse and Holder If the washer won't start the line fuse might have blown, or the line fuse holder might be damaged and need to be replaced.

Main Control Board If the washer won't start the main control board might be defective. This is not common. Check other parts and causes first.

Door or Lid Latch Assembly If the washer won't start the lid switch assembly might be defective. This is a very common problem. The lid switch assembly can fail either mechanically or electrically. Test any electrical switches with an Ohm meter for continuity. The switches should have continuity according to their design.

Door Lock Motor and Switch Assembly If the washer won't start the door lock assembly should be checked. The door lock can fail either mechanically or electrically. Test any switches on the door lock with an Ohm meter. The switches should have continuity according to their design.

Incoming Power Problem If the washer won't start check to see if there is power at the electrical outlet which the washer is plugged into. Plug a lamp or radio into the outlet to check it. If the outlet is dead, check the circuit breakers or fuses for the home.

Power Cord If the washer won't start, check to be sure there is power to the electrical outlet for the home. If that is OK, the power cord itself might be defective. This is rare. You can check the power cord with an Ohm meter for continuity.

I have a yth20k46 and when I turn the switch it won't turn over. I replaced the battery and spark plugs. what might be the problem

I also have a YTH20K46. During last mow (last week), I tried to turn off mower and would not turn off by key. I had to put it down to choke and then stand up. It created a backfire. Today I went to start it, now won't start. It does not turn over. Hour meter has no power. Tested battery & solenoid. Power to both. Key switch works fine. Any suggestions? Just had it serviced a few months ago. Oil, gas and all other things seem fine. Checked wiring, seems fine. Nothing melted or cut. Please help!

Won't turn on

If a portable, could be no charge or bad battery---output voltage is marked on the charger and can be tested with a meter---if voltage and battery are good (most units will work with the charger hooked even if battery is bad) then the unit has either a damaged jack where charger connects or has a power supply problem inside it.

Turned off receiver in a storm now it won't turn back on

Hi,

if it does not power up, then it means its having a power problem. it might have worked fine in the past, but that's electronics for you. Power surge, irregular power supply, excess power supply, etc can affect the unit thereby not making it to power on.

This unit must have a power supply board in it where power enters from the mains. A capacitor, fuse, diode, etc may have been defective on the power board and maybe that's why its not making the unit turn on. There might also be some disconnection or something, inside the unit which is not making it to power on.

To actually find out what's wrong, you need to disassemble the unit with a screw driver and check what's wrong. You will be needing a meter in order to test the components on the power board, once you detect any bad component, you can make necessary replacement at any electronics accessories store withing our vicinity. This is the only way by which you can detect the problem.

Of course, testing the power board with a meter will require someone that has the ability. So it you can't, then you might be needing the help of a repairman or you can call a friend that has the ability to help you out.

Yours sincerely.

Won't power up. Fuse not blown. Q5101 was blown, but I have replaced it. No joy.

Hi,

when you say won't power up, does it mean there is no indication of light whatsoever on the unit? If yes, then it means its having a power problem. it might have worked fine in the past, but that's electronics for you.

Sylvania SSL2006 dead, won't turn on. fuse is ok,

Hi larry
Since you know electronics that will make the explanation simpler;
On your tv model there is a very common problem that you may want to look at;
There is a small board on the right hand side(backlight inverter board),
Look for a shorted D309 , it is a 9.1volts 1watt zener diode.
As i said it is a common problem for your model.
But there is also the power supply;
All lcd tv`s nowadays it seems end up with bad capacitors in the power supply,
You can recognize them by their rounded tops and you`ll find them at the output of the power supply along the 5/12 and 24volts line.
But especially on the 5 volts line.
If your not sure which ones then replace them all (there might be 6 or 7 of them) it won`t hurt and eventually they will go anyway.
Hope this help good luck
