[QUOTE="totalacedude, post: 684201, member: 304160"] hi. yea ive done that! all in if u get the parts from rs or farnell it will cost less than maplins if ur lucky it will just be the caps, if ur unlucky the switch mode controller ic and proberbly the chopper might have gone! if the 5620 is trying to power up ie not totally dead. then a cap bash in the psu will proberbly revive it! when i bought mine from ebay it was not running! i replaced caps (cap bashed ) the psu but to give me reliability i did the whole main pcb to! (about an hours job but totally worth it) its like a new unit now and runs lots colder than 500's etc i did that ages ago and it now sits at work either on or in standby 24/7 and has not missed a beat,i very much doubt that a 500 would last that long! now thinking of putting pli jade on it ;) ian [/QUOTE]
