Voltage Rail Quick Check#
| Rail | Test Point | Expected | If Wrong |
|---|
| +B | Battery terminal | 12-14.4V | Check fuses |
| +25V | After D802 | +25V | Check DC/DC |
| -25V | After D803 | -25V | Check DC/DC |
| +14V | At op-amp pin 8 | +14V | Check Q801 |
| -14V | At op-amp pin 4 | -14V | Check Q802 |
| Vref | IC920 pin 14 | +5V | Check IC920 |
Current Limits for Testing#
| Test Phase | Current Limit | Notes |
|---|
| Initial power-up | 100mA | Just control circuits |
| IC920 check | 200mA | Verify PWM |
| FETs installed, no load | 500mA | DC/DC running |
| Light load test | 2A | With dummy load |
| Full test | 5A+ | Monitor temperature |
Resistance to GND (FETs Removed)#
| Point | Normal | Indicates Short |
|---|
| +25V rail | >100Ω (rises) | <10Ω |
| -25V rail | >100Ω (rises) | <10Ω |
| FET drain pads | >100Ω | <10Ω |
