In article , says... Tom: The hot cap has two likely possibilities: either the cap is shorted internally (an ohmeter check will show leakage) or you have bad diode(s) so AC is being applied to the cap. An ohmeter will show the diodes as bad. a backward diode will supply AC to the cap, also No, it won't. It will however supply the wrong polarity of DC, which could indeed cause these symptoms. I would think some other semiconductors might be running rather hot too if that were the case. -- Doug Smith W9WI Pleasant View (Nashville), TN EM66 http://www.w9wi.com |
