Akai S1000 sampler repair part 1 – diagnostics

I am currently repairing a Akai S1000 sampler that has some common faults

1. Won’t turn on – faulty power supply

2. Backlight is dim or will not come on at all – faulty backlight inverter
I am refurbishing this unit by putting in a new modern power supply and a brand-new LCD backlight mod that costs less than 15 pounds

In this video I cover how to spot the faults and remove the equipment for repair

PART 2 IS NOW OUT https://youtu.be/kmThGOpXwqU
