Replaced PSU twice still doesn't power on

crwdns2934249:0crwdne2934249:0:

Hi!

AirPort Extreme Time Capsule A1470-2TB stopped functioning while it was on, all of a sudden, and without any warning.

No light, no noise of HDD spinning, or fan running.

I replaced the PSU (power supply), twice. None of the times Time Capsule worked again. Second PSU was fully tested according to vendor.

Could it be the logic board?

I don't seem to be able to track any logic board to buy for this product…

+No light, no noise of HDD spinning, or fan running.
-I followed your tear down and repair guides.
-
-Thanx by the way. Nice job! Really easy to follow through!!
-
-Imagine my disappointment when the machine did not power up again. Not with the first, nor with the second unit replacement.
-
-Sure it could be both the PSUs were defective, even if the vendor assured the second was fully tested.
-
-What else could it be?

-No light, no sound, other than that sound one hears whenever an absorption is connected to main power, when I connect the power cord to the wall.
-
-It sounds like PSU is intact and working…
-
-How can I test the PSU or how can I go on otherwise?
-
I don't seem to be able to track any logic board to buy for this product…
-
-I read somewhere else in this forum Time Capsule HD cannot be read by my Mac, so there's no point in transferring it into a SATA enclosure.
-
-Do you confirm that?
