PSU Troubleshooting

[deerhunter]

I had one of my Folding rigs die on me.
I have a multimeter.
Does anyone know which pins to check to on the PSU plug after it is removed from the mobo?
Thanks

edit: I can only find voltage on one wire, that is the green wire.
Does anyone know which pins to short to turn the PSU on so I can check other stuff?

i believe it's the green to either black.

Btw, got the shirt, Thanx bro, looks sweet:cool:

yup, green to any of the black pins should do it.

heres a pinout for future reference:

Thanks for the info guys, and linky.
Its official, I have a bad PSU.
Hard to believe a Farmer doesn't have a spare.
Dang it, I should have bought an extra one from TheDude last week when I stopped by.

Now I'm down a rig for at least 24 hours..........
You know how sad that is,
One of my babies is sick.....

Thanks again for the help!

Hmm, I wonder if I should take the PSU apart and mess with it?
Maybe I should unplug it first, ... otherwise :smileysex

damn, $12 for a PSU is a pretty good price. what kind of shipping do they charge?

[Tweaked!]

They've always been fair to me in the past.
