    What do you mean saying: 'It's a shame you have a 8050 for parts, since I assume most of the boards aren't compatible.'?
    I replaced some parts, but it didn't help, so maybe they were wrong?

    When I first wrote that, I had no time to check the parts catalog, but now I have some spare time.

    After a quick looksee, I was apparently wrong: the C500 and the 8050 share all of the parts (at least the parts catalog is the same for both machines, and it doesn't mention separate parts for each one).

    But it doesn't mean you can just swap boards with them, since I believe the firmware is different for both (I have no means of verifying that, if someone knows for sure, please chime in), so I believe you need to reflash the C500 boards with the 8050 firmware in order for it to work.

    But, even without firmware, if you swap a board and the machine wakes up (even if it wakes up with an error code) it will probably mean the board you just swapped was the one malfunctioning.

    Of course, if you have more than one board dead, you got a long way to go swapping and testing.

    Hello again!
    I've made my c500 working!
    I had to replace every logic board. I've tried many combinations, and only exchange of a few boards gave results. Now copier starts, but shows bad firmware and incomability of parts (KM says that you can replace only two parts at time - I replaced these two behind integrated controler, with USB port, and these logic boards on the right looking from behind).
    Now I'm trying to restore firmware from c500 to 8050 boards .
    Regards,
    Bartek

    same thing happened here after some electrical work was done to the building and only had 110 (one leg of the 220) at the outlet ...just the green light and nothing else
