Aside from all the suggestioins like 'just get another one!' and 'Call Schumberger'
I already did that, nothing's avaliable for this model any longer. I wanted to understand this battery charger. I may have a use for the 'intelligent' part of the Charger.
The Charger is just plumb dead. No hum from the transformer. I have not taken the meter to it yet. It's cold in my Barn. Too cold for monkeying around where my hands are shaking.
Two top photos are the Charger itself, and the heat sink inside the back of the Charger that two Diodes (I think) set into. I think you can see the sockets which are a Spring loaded tab, holding the diode to the heat sink.
Then the two photos of the Diodes that came out of the Holders in the Heat sink. I dont know if they are Diodes. I havent looked at them with a meter yet.

The Diode sitting on the transformer kinda looks like there might have been some flames coming away from the connection. It's a red colored ash I think.
Have any of you worked with this kind of an intelligent Charger? And if you did, have you replaced the 'intelligent' (voltage sensing part) with another circuit from the archives of millions of inventors?
