I have an 54845B that won't power on. It has a Celestica 0950-4191 power supply which is very different fron the one in the 54845A scope. I am following the Power Supply troubleshooting section of the 54845B service manual. By using the 220 Ohm resistor to override the Remote Inhibit signal, I can get the unit to basically turn on the power supply, front panel, fans, etc. and the voltages on the power supply measure OK. However in addition to the inhibit signal, I have to cycle the connector P9 on the Fan board (remove and reinsert) to get to this state.
I have measured all the resistances for the main power signals to ground and they are OK.
I have determined that the 5 VSB signal is on (LED on PC-MB is lighted) when the AC power is connected and unit is OFF.
The main thing that seems to be missing is the +15 V Bias signal. The service manual does not mention where this is generated and it is missing from the resistance check to ground table.
The unit was working fine last week when it bacame unresponsive to the power button.
I would appreciate it if anybody could help with any information regarding the +15 BIAS signal.
