As an update, I believe that the BC338 is correctly placed. On the other hand, the A1266 does not seem to work as the datasheet states.
My test gives as result an EBC setup. I think I am not wrong about the base because tracks that end at base legs of both transistors are especially damaged...
Thank you very much SunnySkyguy. Your involvement has motivated me. :thumbsup:
I was finally able to read the ID of the second transistor (A1266) but now I am even more puzzled. The leads work contrary as they should according to the datasheet, and the middle one gives no reading. That means...
Well, I have had some time for testing and I am about to give up. I have put the transistor in place, properly altering the order of the leads. I have tested all the resistors and the diodes and they seem to be ok. The 5.1 zener diode has been in place in both ways several times. All I get is a...
Thank you very much for making me notice the differences... To my understanding (and confort), a replacement part must be some kind of "plug and play", but I see that I cannot take it for granted. The C3202 has an Emitter/Collector/Base schema, while the BC 338 seems to have a...
Thank you for the explanation and the idea, xenos. I have searched for a compatible part and found some references. The shop guy told me he could have some BC 338 for me in a couple of days, so I will give one of them a try. I think the C3202 is far too much corroded to keep it there, and it is...
Well, here is the update. Tested the 5.1 zener on both senses (I am not sure of the polarity... the old one has no markings and acts as shorted according to the multimeter). Much to my dismay, none of the setups worked. Then I noticed something:
The transistor on the picture is damaged too...
:oops: I am sorry... I was too lazy to Google it... Bad guess...
Before learning how to trace a schematic, I will take my chances. I have just bought some 3.9, 5.1 and 5.6 zener diodes. Time for some desoldering work. Hmmm... I will take the middle way...
If on the News you hear about a giant...
The diode is definitely out of order as the bottom lead (not sure yet whether it is the anode or the cathode) has disappeared after cleaning the rust. Anyway I have found this link that might be useful for testing zener diodes, as it seems they are always paired to a resistor...
Wow SunnySkyguy, you left me speechless... I post here a picture of all the components in case it is useful for someone, and a picture of the Hyundai part where you can see the P/N on the sticker. The sticker on mine didn't resist time and water weathering... Luckily the Stone Age folks...
It is my fault: I haven't specified which component is broken (these pictures were taken BEFORE the cleaning process).
The diodes you mention are still in good visual condition and fortunately they do have markings. The supposed diode I am trying to identify is the tiny one, second from the...
Unfortunately this car has only one lock switch actuator in the driver's door. The other doors have only "slave" mechanisms that are different from this one.
I might look in a scrapyard, but it is not common anymore to find cars of this model. It is becoming a classic. ;-)
Hello all. This is my first post. I will try to be as brief as possible:
I am awkward at electronics, but nevertheless I don't give up and try to fix some little things. This time I have found that the door lock switch of my '98 Hyundai Accent has been damaged by water (sealing issues). I used...
