JVC Model # AV-36980 Chassis # A 70, was at another shop, but in good

Found the SMPS STRF6626 regulator shorted, replaced it, & C926 1000 uf
@ 50 volt
capacitor, everything else checked fine, plug in, & at turn on,
instantly, the fuse blows
....flash, regulator gone again. Didn't even try to start. Anything
common on this unit?
Thanks, Dani.


Checked everything (diodes, resistors, etc). STRF-6626 has lot of
self-protection built in but one thing this IC can't protect against
is bad damping circuit, any shorted diodes in outputs and bad
transformer.
