I'm trying to repair a IIc that seems to be dead on arrival. Turn on switch, nothing happens. No lights, nothing.
So far I've determined that the power supply works. It's getting a solid 18V DC out
It's not powering on anyway.... and from the technical manual I find that the internal power switching board will cut the power to the system if something is wrong with the voltage.
So I've taken apart the power switching box, and looked at the board. It looks OK, but I am suspicious of the voltage regulator which is heatsinked onto the inside of the case in an interesting fashion (with the use of a screw and plate).
I'm looking to try replacing that regulator, but I'm not sure what it is exactly, and what a comparable replacement would be.
It's an NEC C3568
I looked at the SAMS guide, but their diagram of the power switching board looks different to the one I have in my possession.
