Re: HL72A650- no lamp

Happy New Year to You!



Hope you had a nice break!



Yes... FINALLY got ahold of A and he said maybe we can try this direction. I'm surprised these p/u sensors are so hard to find... is it specific to this wheel???



Thanks again!

I really believe one of the sensors at the end of the board are bad. When I test them with a meter I get weird readings.

Re: HL72A650- no lamp

R



Round 12



I unhooked the cw sensor lead from DMD board.



Fired up the unit and checked for any volt reading coming from the sensor... NADA



SO... does that mean the cw pickup is BAD?????.



If the pickup isnt reading the wheel the unit will NEVER fire the lamp!!!!



Need input!
