LED6 (TP8) is out and the controlled lamps are dark.
Driver board LED6 off: lamp matrix 18 V missing (WPC-S and earlier)
Cause: Fuse F114, bridge BR1 or capacitors C6 and C7. The 18 V also feeds the 12 V regulator Q2 (LM7812) for the switch matrix.
Checks
- Check F114, BR1, C6 and C7; measure TP8.
Fix
- Replace the failed part.
