Hey guys, this is my first time posting so sorry for any inconvenience related to that.
So i have this old coffee machine, brought to me by a friend. Doesn't work, doesn't light up, does nothing. I suspected a transformator issue so i stripped it down(was a painful proccess) then i gave 12vdc to machine via an external source. It lighted up.
I was sure then so I disassembled it, took the transforming circuit out. Found a faulty(checked with a make-shift Arduino capacitor checker which i made myself) 220 uf capacitor, changed it. Found a dead resistor(2.2 ohm 1w metal film) acting as a fuse. Changed it too. Then i was pretty sure it was going to light up. Plugged it in and boom. There goes my resistor(fuse) again. So I'm all out of ideas. Please don't hesitate to ask further questions and recommend stuff. Thanks in advance.
