There is no such thing as a simple offline SMPS. I spent quite a few years fixing the things and even when you have the schematic and you are familiar with the particular model they are still not a breeze to fix. And that's not counting their ability to fire mortars at you or electrocute you.I'm not even able to repair a simple power supply.
A resistor cannot be shorted. The fact that you can't reason this means you need to be more cautious.Yes i checked continuity of everything on the board and found one resistor to be shorted.
At the output I'm getting 173.2 ohms between positive and negative terminals.
Picture of faulty board is posted above and the good working one is in it's enclosure and it's for CCTV cameras so i can't turn it off.
Clicking sound doesn't mean anything is wrong. Transformers do this as their core plates shift and respond to the eddy currents and em flux. If the power-supply is working okay otherwise, ignore it. Whomever told you this could be a problem was misinformed.No it isn't working. Everything is as it is. Clicking sound still there.
I've already watched this. Mine is bit different than thisA resistor cannot be shorted. The fact that you can't reason this means you need to be more cautious.
This will probably help you more than anything (he reverse engineers this power-supply):
Here's the schematic:

R14 in your images has at least 4 color-bands showing. You cannot accurately measure a resistor in a circuit with an ohm-meter because your meter is putting power into the circuit.
Did you remove D3 like i said in#26,and see if it kicks up??I've already watched this. Mine is bit different than this
Yeah buddy this only...you sure your resistor with missing cover and "one black ring"
isn't this:

Yes i removed and connected it to mains and nothing was there on output and no ticking.Did you remove D3 like i said in#26,and see if it kicks up??
I've replaced D3 with another diode from other power supply and ticking is still there.Yes there wont be any output voltage, So if it stops ticking then the fault is on the output side, sounds like D3 could be faulty,...
When D3 was removed nothing happened on the board, like no ticking and no output.you're sure it kicks up when D3 was removed.??..
Which means output capacitors or feedback?the fault is on the output side..
