if that's a plug top, is this a socket plug bottom?

Yes, you put plugs into the bottoms.

 

[Mr.C]

Is that what you call a "butt plug" ………. anyway just one final post about this charger, I`ve taken a couple of close up pics both sides of the board showing the note and the reverse side ……

F1 is the fuse. It's a wire ended PCBmount type. Check it for continuity.

 

[Mr.C]

Just checked, def. has continuity.

 

[DPG]

Was worth a try. Have you tried any of the other things previously mentioned

 

[freddo]

As above it will likely be either the small electrolytic capacitor by the heatsink or the device on the heatsink.

 

[Mr.C]

Guess I`ll have to start trying to eliminate the suspects myself, my friend ain`t available to do it. Beginning to wish I`d binned it but it`s got to me now...……………..
DPG- in answer to your ? no your suggestion was the first, thanks.
FREDDO- I`ll try that next, thanks.
And thanks to all the other posters, can`t give up now.

 

[DPG]

So you've measured the DC voltage across the reservoir cap and tried changing the small electrolytic next to the heat sink?
