Re: Sony shut down

Thanks for reply Jamie. The flyback does tick during start up, but I'm
not sure if this is normal or not. I haven't tried ringing the
windings or anything yet.

also, many units derive low voltage from the flyback when it's
fired up. I have found in some cases where this voltage gets
rectified, the filter caps are bad.. and other times, devices
connected to this source are shorted..
the main PS unit also may monitor this source to know when to
shut down the unit if voltage is gone or never gets there after
a couple of sec's
