W1209 temperature controller
Can't work out how I fried my circuit board.
-hooked up 12v +/- to mini fuse board (fuse removed), rest of system running.
-blue smoke, zap
-certain I did not short the wiring, or short to any other part of system.
-noticed the fuse board has LED which comes on when fuse is blown/missing
-didn't notice voltage reads 1.9v across +/- fuse board with no fuse
-is it simply because I was, in effect trying to power the board with 1.9v?
Yes I usually turn things off when installing new bits, was kinda in a hurry. If the above was the problem do I need to use a specific type of fuse board for this type of application?
*Just remembered - hooked up a LED bar afterwards, worked fine, pulled the fuse and the led bar still glowing faintly..now i'm thinking that isn't right and my fuse bar is janky?
any thoughts? cheers.
