Just to mention guys, I didn't have any high wattage resistors of the right value, so I used a couple of 51K and a 68K resistor in parallel (all 2W resistors) and this gave 17.5K which was close enough. The owner called me back the next day to say the aircon system was working perfectly. I think this is a large one which has four separate outlets (head units, whatever is the correct term) in different rooms

Keep in mind that environmental factors also come to play. I once had an MOV that was mounted close to an 800 degree heat source and that temperature melts solder connections. In this case, most of the solder dropped out of the 120VAC power connection and left the connection intermittent. I wouldn't expect this board to be mounted that close to a high temperature source, but that resistor could have created it's own source.

@kennymanchester I agree that is a good technique. If you watched the video all the way through, I did mention some of the ways I would have moved forward, including powering up the PCB. Purely by chance I had already found the fault before I got to that stage.

as it's the first component out of the live it sounds like a fuse resistor ... and it should be a hi wattage low resistance value ... about1 or 2 ohms and at lease about 2 watts ... so it acts like a fuse ... there are lots of these fuse resistors in circuits ... and also there's way that you can measure a blown resistor is that you can cut it in half and measure them ... one should definitely give a vale .. and that value is just about the half of the whole resistor ... this is a common way to measure blown resistors in repair .. you can even measure both half resistors and add up ... try it on a healthy resistor and se that it works ... these resistors have a simple structure and you can measure them cut in half... if length one half is double the length of the other half the resistance should be about twice the other half also. just try to make a clean cut. first try on another resistor and find the best way to cut clean.

Looks unusually well designed and service friendly with all the silkscreen markings.

Glad you have the wonderful weather. We had a tornado at 2:15 am (Central Florida), just north of my location. Not good weather but rather exciting, I guess (Sever Storm Spotter/Chaser). Thank you for your videos and taking the time to make the fantastic content! Take care!

I've had some success figuring out damaged resistors like this by scraping off the coating and measuring as much of the carbon/metal film or whatever as possible. If you can measure from 1 leg to say half way and you get 10k , then you have an idea that it's probably in the 18-22K range. The resistance will be linear across the length of the resistor so it will scale linearly.

just found this vid Richard, so using your expertise to try & fix my external General Air Con Unit problem of not communicating with the internal ones, wish me luck:-)

Field techs dont fix board issues. For an AC unit the should be HVAC certified, at least thats how it is here in the US. So they would recharge or replace compressors, condensers, motors, the control board, and anything that can be repaired gets sent back to a manufacturing facility for rework and what cant get they probably have a contract with some company that handles E waste and then that company probably sells what can most likely has some value to salvage off it to grey markets in places like Mexico, or somewhere like Viet Nam for component stripping and salvage.

Good call breaking the unit down into 'modules'. The fact this particular resistor had its markings gone was also another clue ( usually a sign of heavy duty ) and then all the other stuff about how much it was likely dropping. I am curious tho, if it was an intermittent or continuous load that done for it. As you've hinted it is possibly down to a design/ specification issue, but it could also be something at the load end that is out of spec.

Apparently this is a common fault on these PCBs as some others who are more familiar with them have mentioned. Thinking about it, one end of that resistor is connected directly to 220V AC, and the other end connects via a rectifier diode to a DC rail somewhere in the region of 'less than 100V'. So there is quite a high voltage across it and it clearly passes some current. I expect it was underrated by the circuit designer.

Please can you lecture more on this power supply because I want to know how fix electronics

Look at the Voltage rating of the zener diode. (Vz) Look at the wattage of the zener diode (Pz). Calculate the maximum current in the zener diode (wattage/voltage) Iz = Pz/Vz. This current (Iz) is the RMS current. The current in the zener might flow in pulses exceeding the RMS current (Iz). The same RMS current (Iz) flows through the resistor(Ir=Iz) (if you ignore the load parellel on the zener). The supply (240V) is a half sine. It's RMS voltage is 120V (240V/2). Substract the RMS voltage of 120V and the zener voltage(Vz). The result of this substraction is the RMS voltage over the resistor Vr. Now divide Vr by Ir (R=Vr/Ir). This is the resistor value you need. Take R 30% higher for safety. I assume the load parallel to the zener is around 1/10th of the load of the actual zener itself (which is typical).

@kriswillems5661

For instance : Pz=0.5W Vz=50V -> Iz = 10 mA -> Ir=10 mA Now Vr = 120V -Vz = 70V -> R = 70/0.01 = 7 KOhm Take + 30% -> At least 10KOhm.

Zeners aren't resistors (well, duh!) They are rated for *average* power, from which you can calculate the average current rating. They aren't rated for RMS power because it makes no sense. The power in the resistor is indeed a function of the RMS current, however the resistor current and the zener current are not equal. The instantaneous resistor current is equal to the sum of the the instantaneous load current and the instantaneous zener current. If the load is resistive and that resistance is known, then its current will be equal to the zener voltage divided by that resistance. You simply can't ignore the load current in design of a zener regulator circuit. Matters are further complicated when capacitive filtering is used. If the capacitor is directly across the zener it will do nothing of value unless you allow the voltage to drop below the point where the zener is conducting. That means that when the instantaneous input voltage rises above the capacitor voltage the current through the resistor will have to charge the capacitor. That cam make the overall RMS resistor current higher than predicted by "rule of thumb" esitmates. The RMS value of a half-wave rectified sinusoid is not half the RMS value of the full sinewave, it half of the _peak_ value of the sinewave, taken over the full cycle period.

@kriswillems5661

10 ай бұрын

First of all, yes, I should have talked about average zener current. ​In typical zener design the load current is about 10 times smaller than the zener current. I am aware of that error. We're trying to get an idea of the range of the resistor. The capacitor just acts as an energy reservoir. It does not consume any active power. That is the reason why I only use RMS values. During normal operation the voltage over the cap is the zener voltage. The amplitude of a 240V AC signal is 240*sqrt(2) volt. To get the RMS of the half sine wave you've to divide this amplitude by (2*sqrt(2)) which gives you 120. The voltage over the resistor is actually not a half sine wave, it's more like a half sine wave cut off from below. And you would need to calculate some integrals to get he RMS voltage. I know I make an error here too. I know I cut many corners. If you want to have an more accurate estimate you can run a simulation in SPICE, using a load current of 10% of the zener current. @@d614gakadoug9

Thanks great vid you are good at reverse engineering.

If you use the continuity tester, it would not be advisable to connect the - pole to ground, because the multimeter injects up to 5 volts and this can destroy components. Plaese measure the volts at the test terminals of your multimeter! Tip: Only use multimeters that inject 1 volt!

About the unknown resistor: could You take away the outer coat with a Dremel (I assume that´s a wire wound) and measure from the fault to the ends to add up the results? Could it be that rather simple? Well, this isn´t my idea, I stumbled upon it in here somewhere in time. I´d try- the part is already broken.

Crude capacitive dropper running those poor SSR's. Cut the trace going down to SSR's and current limit your bench supply to under 25ma and move it up slowly to find out if the Zener diode still exhibit's the typical "knee" current behavior. Your FNIRSI DSO-TC3 tester could be handy.

Great Video...

The black transformer at the end of the board is a current sense transformer with a full-wave bridge rectifier on the output. After the bridge will be a low-value loading resistor - likely in the range of a few ohms to 100 ohms or so. The switcher control IC is intended for use in a quasi-resonant circuit where a snubber is not required, hence none is shown on the typical ap circuit on the datasheet. Note the cap from the FET drain to ground. There is no evidence of such a cap on the PCB (typically would be a moderately large type with polypropylene or "better" dielectric. It looks to like the circuit on the PCB is a conventional flyback.

@@LearnElectronicsRepair A current sense transformer like that designed to operated at AC mains frequency will very likely have a single turn primary and a secondary of perhaps a thousand turns.With all CTs you try to run the secondary so that its load is close to a short circuit. That way the current in the secondary is determined by the current in the primary divided by the turns ratio. The resistor used as the secondary load of course converts that to a useful voltage. On that circuit board I would guess it is being used to monitor current in the compressor.

Expecting current limit sufficient to protect "sensitive" circuits by setting the current limit on a bench supply is folly! You will get current limiting ... eventually - after the output capacitors in the supply have sufficiently discharged. In the mean time you could get a current transient that could be tens of amperes even with a fairly small supply. If you must use this method, the leads from the supply should be kept short circuited until it is time to apply current to the thing being tested.

Fair comment, probably better to add an LM317 to the output of the bench PSU to set a current limit using that.

PMSL. But no it's not PMS at night LOL 🤣 it's at the wrong end of the bed to start with

This is supposed to be a story about fixing a circuit board without a diagram, instead we get all this crap about the weather!! Are you so desperate for KZread time that you waffle about trying to stretch the video to falsly get money from KZread. I hope others read this and realise they are being conned. RUNAWAY!!!!!

I am a regular viewer and subscriber Richard but my concentration has been ruined here by the amount of adverts. Instead of following the topic I now spend my time anticipating when the next will come. Regretfully I am likely to de-subscribe and avoid in future.

I don't choose how many ads KZread place in my videos. Some viewers also see more ads than others while watching the same video, possibly due to their location, and two viewers in the same location will often see different ads. I'm sorry to hear you are getting so many it has become a distraction. Really there is no simple answer to this. KZread have to cover the costs of providing the streaming service, Creators have to earn a living doing what is for a lot of them a full time job making this content, and viewers need to have an acceptable viewing experience. I don't think myself that there are anywhere near as many ads on KZread as there are for example on UK TV channels like Sky News or ITV which seem to carry about 15-20min advertising per hour of viewing. I believe US TV has even more advertising per hour. Where do you think the best compromise is regards ads vs viewing time? Another option is YT Premium, the viewer gets an ad free experience and the content creator gets paid for their work. It would be great to think of another business model that works for KZread, creator, and viewer alike but unfortunately I can't imagine what that would be. Maybe it is unfair but I do feel that their are 'some' viewers who want to watch for free without being annoyed by ads and they think KZread should provide a free storage and streaming service, using unpaid employees to run their business operation, so they can watch the content they like, made by creators who are getting no payment for their work. I honestly don't believe you personally are one of those people, though I believe that there are many who do fit that description, so maybe you could come up with some idea that would work better than the current situation.
