Mine had a rubber sleeve over it which lifts off, then you can remove the fuse by either hooking a fingernail under it, or gently prying it out from the sides with a small screwdriver. The main fuse is easily visible on a small circuit board by the main transformer. Put the back\base aside, and rest the unit back onto the lid. You will also need to feed the RCA cables up through the hole as you lift it off. Once the screws are removed, put the unit onto its feet and life the top off from the front as the USB & phono\line switch protrude through the case. Remove the screws from the back, there are 8 screws total, each screw has a small brass spacer on the bottom of it which will almost certainly fall into the case when you remove the back, be VERY sure you retrieve them all!
Take the lid off & lay it on a table top-down and rest the main unit on the lid. The hinges from the lid.Įnsure the voltage selector is set correctly (230V and not 115V), that the power switch is turned OFF and that the power cable is definitely not plugged in. Pleased that a few cents of parts and a couple of hours of time was all that was needed to fix it rather than lots of money for a service agent!īefore starting - remove The cartridge. Really best to replace it properly however, although surface-mount components tend to be hard to come by in anything less than packs of 10 or so. Not particularly difficult to desolder & remove, the hardest part is getting the board off to work on as there's a fair few screws & cables to come off it. If you're brave you can just solder a jumper in instead, or use a solder-bridge. The surface-mount fuse itself is behind where the 2-wire blue power connector from the transformer connects to the board. Nevermind, the fuse is on the top side of the central PCB which has the motor on it. I'm taking photos as I'm doing this so can provide a guide given that this looks to be a not entirely uncommon people for those such as myself who were too impatient to follow the instructions properly during the initial setup. Same problem here, pretty angry with myself! If someone could email me the circuit diagram, I'd be very appreciative!įailing that, anyone know the component number of the problem microfuse (printed beside it on the PCB) and which of the boards it's on? Hope it's not on the top of the central board as that doesn't look like much fun to remove.
