Well my second power supply on my Phillips dsr6000 Directivo has now died, it worked great for months and then all of a sudden the unit started rebooting at the 'Powering Up' screen and now the unit won't even turn on (although the fan still works).
After going through the forum I see that the part # for the P/S is #146855911, not that it did me any good since Sony is no longer selling this power supply. I know I have the option of purchasing another one at $99, but my local Electronic shop told me that the problem was 99% the switching control board (he actually said switching chip, but I'm assuming that's the same thing and I would like to try that route before shelling out for a whole new power supply.
I saw from some schematics on this board that the part # for that component is 553-1467, but when I called Sony they did not recognize that part # and said they needed a location # to locate the part that I'm requesting.
Can anyone please tell me what information I need to give Sony in order to get this component off them (if it's even still available), and if it's not available are there any other places that I could just order this specific part from?
Thanks so much.
