LED1 on the driver board is out; switches do not work.

Driver board LED1 off (+12 V regulated missing)

Cause: Fuse F115 has blown, often because CPU chip U20 has failed. The supply path is J101 pins 4-5 and 6-7, F114, BR1, C6/C7, diodes D1/D2, regulator Q2, F115, then J114 pins 1-2.

Checks

  • Check F115, then F114.
  • Measure TP3 to TP5 for 12 V.

Fix

  • Replace F115; if it blows again, replace CPU U20 (ULN2803).
