Axpert/fivestar fan direction

Featured Replies

Hi all, I have changed the electrolytic caps in 5star inv. at 5,12,-12v psu about 2 years ago due to display cycling on/off. I also turned around the fans to blow up instead of sucking down.

2 years later, error 03 bat. high voltage(120 v on lcd)

Busy sourcing new caps with low esr high ripple current(used for switching psu's) - any idea where to source? Rabtron sent quotation.but not much info, only that it's either Rubycon or Hitano 105deg.

Hopefully new caps will solve error 03, if not I am planning to take inv. to megavolt for quotation.

My question is , if changing fan direction could have pre-maturely dried out the caps - hot air from heat sinks blown upwards over the caps instead.of sucking down.?
