Mark_McQ Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 I got an XT Live recently for free. I had an AC adaptor here with the same 2A spec as the PX2, and the Pod powered up briefly then died with a burning smell. I was able to track it to the 6800uf cap C31 which I've replaced. I also picked up a proper PX2-G but the unit is still having the same issue. I can see the capacitor starting to smoke. Is it possible the LM1086 voltage reg next to it could be the issue, as it looks like it feeds the capacitor directly? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
