Sorry for posting on such an old thread, but i have a power problem on my FW800. Started months ago, and i have swapped the power button board assembly and cable, then the machine started. But that didn't last long. After a short while same thing, and i swapped the second button board with the original, and surprisingly it all went ok for a little while again.
Current status is, pressing the button light comes on instantly, and that's all. My understanding is that all MDDs carry the same PSU? A tech guy suggested measuring amperage of the power supply. How do y'all measure voltages by the way? Is it correct that the psu needs to be plugged on the mobo?
Thanks in advance!
