I have a ceramic decoration that is lit with a small 6 watt lamp inside and a few very small bulbs on the outside of the building and the very small bulbs on the circuit board that is pictured, all are powered via a single AC/DC plug 3VDC 800ma output. The inside bulb and the outside bulbs all work.
I have a Etekcity MU600 Digital Multimeter. From what I have researched and could understand (I have absolutely no idea how these things work, it is honestly very hard to understand for me) I used the settings on the A= side and it showed various reading on the soldered parts of the circuit board. So would the bulbs be the problem? Or do certain numbered readings on the multimeter indicate a problem?
Is there a similar replacement board that I could use? I have a soldering iron (which I have never used). I contacted the company that made the item but it was a limited edition from 2001 and they do not carry any parts or have info on the board used. I know the bulbs on the board dimmed at random somewhat, because they were used to illuminate a campfire.
Any help is appreciated.
