Product Description
The GE Power Supply Board DS200EXPSG1ACB features one reset button, 3 fuses, and 1 LED. The GE Power Supply Board DS200EXPSG1ACB also is populated with 3 9-pin connectors, multiple capacitors, and test points. The 1 LED on the board is green in color and is lit when the board has passed all startup diagnostic tests and is operating as designed. When the LED is not lit, it indicates that a problem has been encountered. To troubleshoot the condition, the test points are a valuable means of testing the individual circuits in the board. The printed information provided with the board from the manufacturer will describe each test point and how a servicer can test the various circuits on the board.
The testing device must be equipped with probes that are compatible with the tester and are in good condition. Look for insulation that is worn or missing and use another probe if they are inadequate or unsafe. The testing equipment must also be calibrated for the testing being performed on the board and all controls must be set properly for the testing. The equipment sends a small amount of current through the circuit and records the response the circuit has to the voltage.
If the circuit testing does not uncover the problem, another troubleshooting step is to run the drive diagnostic application available from the control panel on the drive. The control panel is comprised of a small display panel and a keypad. The user interface is a menu-driven design that you can use to select the diagnostic application.
