Yamaha REV 1 with a broken psu

[dreamix]

Something in the psu died, fuse is alright!

Anyone know who could fix these things, or have a schematic over the psu, please pm me!

All the best / Mattias

If it's anything like a lot of the yamaha reverb/delay processors from that era the first thing I would do is recap the PSU.

PSU is a bit more beefy than some of the other units, but I would still recap the psu.

I had to replace the 2 main switching transistors in one of these a while ago.
They are BJT's and very difficult to find equivalents for at those rated specs.

Thanks for the answers,

Ive taken out the psu, and disconect the switchboard from the psu mainsboard, looks like a nightmare this psu,

Did you found an equivalent that worked and care to share

I believe the originals are 2SC2937.

Mouser sell the BUV48A which I seem to recall are rated the same or better.
