Hi this is my first foray into fixing a Star Trek: TNG machine I've just bought.
I am replacing the bridge rectifiers (BR1 and BR2) and capacitors (C11/C5).
I've disconnected all of the wiring harness from all the boards in the back box.
My question is: once I have replaced the bridge rectifiers and capacitors, can I test whether the power driver board is working without reconnecting everything?
Can I just connect one or two of the connectors from the wiring harness and look for the LED status lights? Or probe some test points for certain voltages?
Or do I need to reconnect everything back up again to test it?
Thanks
