Mactronics Power supply/charger unit
Messages 1 to 5 of 5.
A circuit diagram would help enormously. Alternatively whether anyone is scrapping a caravan with a similar unit in good working condition. Finally suggestions for a good replacement. I am anxious to keep the use of the Abbey Computer controlled electrical management system . Or is that asking too much. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Skidlid
Big trouble is everything goes in and then back out the box, to replace it although possible is a nightmare of rewiring. What can I say? not really an option to replace it, it might be something very simple wrong with the box or just the opposite!, perhaps you have a local TV repair man or the like who could take a look at it? ___________________ website: http://www.arcsystems.biz email: [Log in to view email] If you want to join the 'CARVER QUESTIONS' discussion and ask a new question, click on any 'reply to this message' within that discussion and your question will then appear on the last page.
Many thanks - that is what I was afraid of. I have a neighbour who has had a look inside the mactronics box but without a circuit diagram he is unable to help. He is an electronics engineer and I suppose if it is defeating him then what chance have I got ! I shall keep looking and hoping but eventually I think that I might have to give up and simply replace with a new transformer/charger. At least time is on my side since I am unlikely to use the caravan before next season. Thanks again Skidlid

I shall contact a TV repair guy as you suggest. In fairness to my neighbour, he had a look at it before you suggested a TV repair man. He also said that he would have a further look once I brought the caravan home. I simply took off the supply/transformer and brought it home leaving the van at a relatives house some distance away. The neighbour is a retired marine radar electronics expert so perhaps I have been a bit unfair on him. He did say that it would make a difference to his examination if he could put it under load. Funnily enough, in conversatio with a former TV man in Helmsley, he said that he used to repair these and that it was usually a burnt out transitor (?). Thanks again Skidlid
