ISSUE: My Phantom of the Opera left sling switch does not appear working and the coil does not fire
SYMPTOM 1: Left sling coil appears burnt out and warped where arm won't move
SYMPTOM 2: A leaf switch on the left sling was stuck on outside of rubber
SYMPTOM 3: The transistor at CN19 position 6 Q10 has discoloration burn marks and appears to be burnt out
I replaced the coil and fixed the leaf switch position. ❌ I cannot solve for the blown transistor.
TRANSISTOR INFORMATION
- On diagram, CN19 position 6 Q10 transistor, appears to be a 20N10L
- On the transistor label, it appears to actually be a 1L32AC FQP 13N10L
- Transistor testing a good one it says: BJT-NPN 123=ECB hFE=43 Vf=1.73V
TRANSISTOR REPLACEMENT ATTEMPTS
- Closest match appears to be NPN TIP102 TO-220 which transistor tests as BJT-NPN 123=BCE hFE=45 Vf=1.27V
- Issue here appears to be we want "ECB" and not "BCE" <== WHAT IF I PUT IF IN BACKWARDS
