Hi Guys,
I’m in the process of assembling an AWA battery eliminator for an AK 30 and have run into an issue. After putting the B voltage section together there’s a short. When I disconnect either transformer secondary (Triad VPS230-110),the short disappears. The PC has been triple checked for incorrect part placement and solder joints checked for neatness.
After putting together a half dozen AES eliminators I figured this one would be easy. Not so. I’m looking for advice on tracking down the problem. The printed circuit board gets confusing to my 70 year old eyes! Thoughts?
Thanks! - Rob Q.
