Re: Oh dear... Smoke + IIe = bad




Your's is a 0.1 mf bypass capacitor--not too hard to find.  Just
make sure that the voltage rating is adequate.  A more typical
failure mode for these is a short, accompanied by a blown fuse.

You've already done the hard part--opening the power supply.  ;-)

Good luck!

There's more to it, it seems. There's some melting of the plastic on the very large ?transformer 3/4 to the left, and probably obscured in those photos by the edge of the picture.


I am already looking into sourcing a replacement power supply. It's too soon for my IIe to bite the dust I think.
