When       I after ten years in storage first time started my 8595 it powers on with some       checkpoint displays but it after few second went power off and never startet       again.

If the PSU doesn't power on, there can't be any other voltages       than the pin 1 pull up voltage of ~5 V.              Are you sure you had the connector oriented correctly? It seems to me       that you were shorting out pins 20-21 (nothing when OFF, +5 V when ON)       and measuring pins 1-2 (PS-ON, which is floating at ~5 V when OFF, and       must be pulled down to turn the rest of the PSU ON).              Make sure you are working with the correct pins and try the procedure again.              I don't think I ever encountered a Schrack PSU in a Model 95. No clue       about it's internal construction. Is it really a single range 200-220 V       unit?              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
