Soldato
My knowledge of IC's is limited. I have the tools and knowledge to replace individual components though.
Mum has a really old Kenwood food mixer, very strongly made and until yesterday had worked fine.
Apparently it started smoking loads.
So I took it apart and the motor looks fine, had a look at the simple IC and two capacitors look blown, well they are blown. Literally.
One is 0.1 x 10-6 F and one is 0.15 x 10-6 F.
How much would these components cost? How likely is it that other components have been damaged (there are not many of them!)? What is the likely cause of them failing?
Regards,
Chris
