Sir Swampfox . . . . .
So . . .it'sa looka lika' dis :
( I particularly like the heeevee- doodie springy-dingy-thingie . . . and I hope . . .a glazed porcelain or ceramic end cap. )
Do those ree-sistor-es-es visually appear to be bad or is resistance measurement proving them as bad ?
R20 is a 10 ohm @ 1/2 W carbon . . . I would upgrade to metal film.
R3 is a 0 decimal 12 @ 2 watt metal film.
If they HAVE BLOWN, check out all of the the resistance possibilities between the 3 pins
of the . . . unplugged iron hand unit . . . . and then between the 3pins and the outer ground shell.
On the main unit . . . check resistance readings between the Gate to MT1 and MT2 and then between
MT1 and MT2 . of the units power control which utilizes a BT139-600E Triac.
It 'soitanly wouldn't hurt, to have a GOOD SHARP closeup photo of the foil side of the PC board
if any further help is being needed .
BT139-600E TRIAC:
Aside . . .
For pre censorial approval purposes . . . . is OK Chris . . .hmmmm OK hmmmm OK Hmmmm ?
