| Yamaha M-70 massive damage |
| (1/1) |

Not quite sure what happened here! For sure the fuse did not have a chance to say a word. Have you ever seen parts (PCBs) for M-70? Those PCBs are so damaged that I would have to make them from scratch. |

Well.... thanks to some material regulations the house did not burn down. The other good news is that the PCB's still seem to be in a good enough shape that you can copy them. Hope you have a schematic, because whatever that black blob was before it is not going to be easy to identify. |

Lightning strike? Schematics, service manual are easily found online. It's not a complex circuit. Whether it's worth repairing (restoring?) and parts availability is a different question. |

It looks as if it's a big PIO (Paper In Oil) capacitor in the power supply mains filter... and they have a reputation for blowing up in 230/240V supply regions... https://www.audiokarma.org/forums/index.php?threads/yamaha-a-760-a-760ii-a-960-a-960ii-a-1060-m-50-m-70-and-b-6-220-240v-warning.154682/ It sounds a bit like a massive Rifa PME on steroids - with added oil and probably not hermetic. EDIT: From the service manual, it looks like C607, 470nF 250V, across the line, maybe it is an ordinary Rifa PME X Cap, difficult to judge the size and shape now. It looks as if that whole assembly is a Triac phase control regulator feeding the mains transformer primary. Yuk! |
