i have a power supply with issue in -12v rail. after 15seconds of power the diagnostic begins beep and shows LL ON -12V which means undelvoltage .. i have replaced the most of the capacitors due to missing capacitance (checked with capacitometer)..but i have stil the same problem . can anyone help me to find the solution to fix it....the diodes are ok...i have checked..
Thank you to the guys at HEGE supporting Badcaps [ HEGE ] [ HEGE DEX Chart ]

Re: iso p500-spp 400 watt power supply cpu issue
maybe the diode.
diodes can look o.k. on a meter and then fail as they warm up in circuit.
only 2 ways to detect that.
1: blast it with compressed air or freezer spray while running to see if it fixes the problem.
2: meter both the ac input and the dc output to see if the input drops when the output does.

So for the above, I suggest connecting the PSU to a crappy motherboard (something like an old useless Pentium 4 or similar board), turn on the motherboard, and then measure the voltages with a multimeter at the ATX connector. I bet you the -12V will be OK then.
Also, since you mention this is an "ISO" -branded power supply, you may want to post some pictures here. Some of them are built well and worth recapping, like this one:

But some cheap variants of the ISO line can be total crap and very gutless. Here's is a gutless one that probably will need a ton of modifying if meant to be used with a PC again:
