The2 red lines at top are the power in from the plug.
The capacitor (not pictured) looks like a lava flow and I reckon it melted on to the top of the resistor and fried it, that being my non electronic view.
Chris58, yes that was my original post.
I will take an image of the bottom and post it.
The fuse gives me continuity on a multi meter.
Yes UK, the item in question is probably cheap chinese, I will add an image of the label.
CBB28 125OV 526J
I wasnt sure if it would be identifiable. It is from the plug-in charger that a torch sits on.
The green line was a capacitor that blew out, I am not in to electronics but thought I would give it a go in trying to repair it.
I am ok with mechanical stuff but electronics baffles me.
This is from a plug that charges a torch. One of the capacitors has blown (see images)
As far as I can make out the blown one is CBB22 400v 224J ,would this be correct? As I need to order a replacement.
The others are:
CBB22 664J 400v
CBB22 474J 400v
CBB28 125 OV 5623
In original state only one charger has a fuse at the output end so there is nothing to swap.
Batteries will definitely need to be replaced unfortunately.
Image of the other charger without fuse:
Unfortunately one charger is not fused at output so cannot swap, it only has a fuse in the mains plug. Something I may have missed is that the scooter has 2 x 12 V in series for a 24V drive output, I know it needs new batteries as one reads 4V and the other 10V, is it possible the charger will...
Les, you are quite correct, my `expertise` is in the mechanical side of things. I am comfortable with house electrics and in electronics at the input & output for checking, all the bits in between I leave to the experts unless very basic. I wont go much beyond getting a replacement fuse/holder...
Many thanks for both replies as they have been very useful explanations for me.
I checked the plug fuse..ok, I checked for output voltage..nil, I tried using to power up...nothing. The other check I tried was as the main power lead is not detachable I checked for where it is attached to the...
Trying to resolve some issues, all similar so posted all three here rather than separate.
1. Charger for mobility scooter, I am trying to source a fuse holder +fuse but none of the mobility companies seem willing to supply one.
Any ides for a source? (image 2)
2. 2nd Mobility charger, fuse...
