    Hoping someone can help

    Hi!

    Does anyone have an old Minolta DI520 or 620 laying around that still has the HV PWB # 1155-6201-03 in it ? This machine is not supported by any vendor that I can find, and I'd really like to get it running. It recently had the fuser rebuilt and a new drum put in (those parts are still available), but now it looks like the power supply is bad. It's in a church that also has a daycare center for young kids, so as you can imagine they don't have a high budget. The machine was donated to them years ago and has been running relatively cost free for them until the fuser needed rollers and the drum needed changing. If you have the PWB, or can direct me to someone who might, I'd really appreciate it!

    Thanks in advance,
    Don

    That is a really old machine. You would probably find a semi complete machine somewhere instead of the parts for it.
    What is the symptoms of the machine?
    You could try to get the board repaired.
    If you have the circuit diagrams and a tester you could get into it...
    Whatever

      Can you send the board into Hytec for repair? I think I'd go that route. =^..^=
      If you'd like a serious answer to your request:
      1) demonstrate that you've read the manual
      2) demonstrate that you made some attempt to fix it.
      3) if you're going to ask about jams include the jam code.
      4) if you're going to ask about an error code include the error code.
      5) You are the person onsite. Only you can make observations.

        Agree with BC. repair might be the only route. Or maybe Hytec has a surplus board you could buy. Not sure if they are still repairing boards for that old of a machine. Kon/Min end of life date was 2009.

          Thanks for the responses! I checked with Hytec-they no longer support the product and won't repair the board. If I could find a machine to pull the part from that would be awesome, but so far I haven't had any luck even locating one. The unfortunate thing is that other parts were so recently replaced and billing is still pending, so I'd really like to get this thing running right so I can at least feel ok about charging for putting in the other parts that it needed.
