Been going around and around trying to get this Toy Chest crane machine working. Came to me dead. The top lights turn on, but that is it.
Pretty sure I tried swapping power supplies and didn't fix it.
Then I thought it was the PCB so swapped with another one just now, didn't fix it.
There definitely has to be something wrong with the power supply as unplugged from the PCB, it rarely turns on. Unplugged from the PCB, sometimes the power supply turns on and the fan spins, most times not. But it never turns on when connected to crane's PCB.
Questions:
Is this the right replacement? https://twistedquarter.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=521_337&products_id=3910
Or would this one work? Looks like it would plug right into the PCB. https://www.ebay.com/itm/231136707349?hash=item35d0d24315:g:cJAAAOSwWQBiBBws
What is the purpose of the hacked in resistor installed on top of the power supply? Is it needed?
