Power socket

edited October 2014 in General
Hi All, my power socket has gone glitchy, rebooting the machine if I so much as tap the machine too hard.
Anyone got a part number of a replacement with the correct footprint from Mouser or similar?

  • Navigate to the Assembly Instructions. You find the part numbers for the DC jack in the BOM.

    I couldn’t understand what you meant by glitchy. I understand that you’d need to replace
    it and you’ll get the part number from BOM easily but could you mention if the
    problem has been resolved. Since there are a lot of other reasons that could
    cause the machine to reboot, like a loose connection in the circuitry. It would
    be easier for others to guess the problem they’re having in the future.

  • it would glitch off and on again if the power cable was touched, as stated sometimes even a few hard button presses would do it.
    power socket has been replaced. All is good again.
    If your machines turns off and on again when the power cable is touched/moved I would recommend replacing the power socket.  
  • I'll try to find another brand of power sockets for the next run.
