The other day I noticed one of my trackspots not working. I cheked the power supply fuse and, sure enough, it was blown. When I replaced it and plugged the fixture in, the new fuse blew within 2 seconds. Just to be certain I tried it one more time (fuses are cheap), with the same result. I opened the fixture up to see if there were any obvious dead shorts, but everything looked good - no burn marks or bare wire. I don't think the problem is the board, but I could be wrong. The fuse blows so quickly, I think something must be wrong with either the voltage selector or the transformer. The problem is I'm not sure which. The selector looks ok, but I know that doesn't mean much. To visually inspect the transformer I'll have to unwrap it - not something I really want to do. I was wondering if anyone out there knows of an easy way to determine which is my culprit?
Transformer is blown. Replace it and the voltage selector (comes as 1 unit already wired. 4 bolts and your good to go. I do about 15 of these a year on client fixtures.
