I have a controller for an electric throw blanket that I would like to repair, but I have no experience soldering on boards
You can see at bottom left a yellow box and a resistor. Something has burnt out in this area, and likely both will need to be replaced at a minimum
I would also need help identifying parts. The yellow box is embossed ‘Tenta’ and has printed on the side ‘TC MEX/TENTAMKP 0.1 uf 275VAC’ with some other markings obscured or damaged
Is this an achievable project?
Thanks, as a learning exercise I am willing to have one good go before I turn the electronics into waste, but if they blow again that may be the end of it
I’ve been given an opportunity to ask ‘genuineparts’ where I should buy parts 😉 (I’m in Australia)
I think DigiKEy and Mouser have Aussy sites where you would probably be able order the parts.
They do!
