Namaste, I have two power supplies for external harddrives, one is marked FLY36-5-12 and the other Fy-Q10/24 and are rated at Input 100-240, 50/60/, .5a and the other 100-240, 50/60, .2a respectively.
The FY-q10/12 was powering an external enclosure but failed. The FLY36 is working. the leads on both powersupplys are different, so to use the FLY36 on the enclosure I thought that I could just chop off the plug from the FY-Q10/24 and swap. BUT the pinout is not the same. The FY-Q10/24 has a red, brown, yellow, black, and green wires and the other just yellow, red and white.
So what goes to what? Its probably apparent that I am not an electronics tech but a hack, and I do own a soldering gun and must repair lots of things here, as going to get a new part is impossible and there are no radio shacks one every corner. just water buffalo and rice paddies and momo shops. So your help is appreciated very much!
