Re: FSP400-60GLN worth fixing?

Maybe i will buy from you next time. This time i just bought material in store which i have almost across street from my office (plus I already have my own stock for another purposes).

But i can confirm, some capacitors really are able bloat in storage even never used. I don't remember which ones exactly it was. But they was not Hitano ESX.

Time will tell and maybe i will write it here :-)...

Re: FSP400-60GLN worth fixing?

So i just replaced all remaining capacitors and guess what? It works just fine. It's kinda boring.

I found one C32 which i forgotten replace in 2016, so i replaced even smallest ones (2.2μF). Now it runs on my desk almost one hour continuously and nothing bad happened yet. No explosion, no overheating, all voltages are how it should be.

My retro PC probably never will exceed 100W of total consumption, so 400W PSU should be adequate. And cold PSU will probably last much longer, i hope.

For fun i tried...

Re: FSP400-60GLN worth fixing?

Hello, i am new here and i found this thread, because i have too this power supply with some weird behavior.

It works without any load, all voltages seems to be in tollerance. Many years ago (2016?) i replaced almost all capacitors, shortly tested it and just put it in my storage. Now PSU can be handy for my retro PC, but with mainboard Asus K8N-E two diodes D36 & D37 (2x HER108) connected in series between 5V and 3.3V outputs going very hot. And i don't know why. I even did not found these diodes on any schema which i was able found....
