I got this mixer for free and is trying to see if I can fix it.
The problem is when it is switched on, the lights just turn on for half a second and then nothing.
Instead of asking directly how to fix it, I would like to first try using my limited knowledge to fix it myself. Of course, I need your helps in some ways.
I suspect it is the power supply problem. Visually, there is nothing wrong on the power supply board. I am trying to find out which component is causing the problem. From the incoming AC power, I found that there is a component (as shown on photo) connecting between the black line and the line to the input of the transformer. According to the service manual, it is "Z001, CR, 0.033uF+120 125V". What exactly is this component? Can it be tested with a multimeter?
