Hi EEVBloggers!
I'm currently looking at a switch mode PSU... I'm not sure how common this is, but there appears to be a small, separate supply using a VIPer22a chip driving the fans and also the control circuit for the main PSU... and it is this which appears to have failed... there's precious few components in this thing, but my attention is focussed on the shunt regulator in the feedback circuit... See attached image... I believe this is something not to far from a TL432, but can anyone explain the marking to me?

PS, Also, if it's a TL432, i wonder why they didn't use the TL431, it seems identical apart from the pinout, but much more common.
