borisbrain Posted May 10, 2011 Share Posted May 10, 2011 Hi all, My trusty Samson AP1 wireless (with pedal-style receiver) seems to have died after years of trusty service. Here's what happened: At a gig this weekend I powered it up as normal but it didn't work. The (generic) mains adapter was quite hot, but no operating lights were on - either on the adapter or the wireless pedal. I tried a 9V battery, and this didn't work either. I ended up playing the gig with a normal lead. I dug the stuff out today and noticed that the wiring coming out of the mains adapter was frayed and possibly short-circuiting, which explains why it was hot. I've just bought a new adapter from Maplins and the operational lights on the pedal now come on, but there's just no output signal. I've tried opening up the pedal to see if there's any obvious sign of a burnt-out component, but I can only see the underside. Needless to say, the batteries in the transmitter are fine. Any ideas? Many thanks, BB [attachment=79496:photo.JPG] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
