IIe monitor started smoking today...
It gave into social pressures and lit up.
:-)
I opened it up. diode in the ?bridge rectifier? is split in half,
burnt.... 4 diodes in a row
right next to AC input on the circuit board.
Is this just the diode failing, or something in the DC circuit drawing
too much
power?
