[Electrical] Rebooting clc 3220

[Van Steal]

Hi all

Having an intermittent problem were a 3220 will reboot on its own. Sometimes it takes tree or four goes to come back. The bar will go all the way across the lcd then have another go.
Anybody have this fault or any suggestions before I lob a load of parts in it.

I suspect harddrive/boot rom or main pcb.

Cheers

Swap out the Memory DIMMs (from another machine if available or replace WA7-3859-000 lower DIMM and WA7-3858-000 upper DIMM) on the Main Controller one at a time. This should help you to determine which one is defective. Replace the defective Memory DIMM.


or remove and clean contacts on DIMMS w/alcohol

That's a good place to start.

Are you a tech?
