Hello everyone. I'm a newbie trying to resurrect an old Sears battery charger that has quit working. Sears Model No. 608-718200. My buddy who has some electronics knowledge says the rectifier is gone. I also think the transformer might be kaput too. All needs to fit within the existing case that's 5-7/8 in. wide, 9-7/8 lg. & 5-1/2 in. dp. Output taps are at 2 A & 10A. The original control module naturally is no longer available from Sears parts as item 16 on parts list as SC-1-134210. Output of 2 A works to recharge neighbor's lawnmower while the 10A works for my 23YO car.
Can anybody on this forum help me out?
I'm an older guy on a fixed income.
I can drill, fab sheet metal, and possibly anything else it may take.
Figure that mounting something, not counting a transformer as another item, itself should work.
Please bear in mind mind that I'm also a novice solderer.
Ideas appreciated. Thanks
