i was playing thru my beloved axe when suddenly there was a loud popping noise that came from the unit. That was followed by a strange noise in the speakers and the screen going blank with weird lines running thru it, then the AF2 just stopped working. I turned it off, waited a little and turned it on again, nothing happened, at that time I noticed a burning odor emanating from the unit and realized something bad has just happened...
Hi Pauly, yes, your probably right, thank you for the replyHi laserjam,
I’m speculating but I’d suggest the power supply has gone.
You can purchase a power supply from fractal and if you’re handy with a Phillips head, it’s an easy swap.
Thanks
Pauly
Laurke-lux, thanks so much!https://shop.fractalaudio.com/repair-service-misc-parts/ check for power supply at 40USD
You can also call G66 in Germany, they'd be happy to help you https://g66.eu/en/support/contact
I'd say at 99% probability it's the power supply
Yes, sounds like the PSU indeed. A very easy fix.
Here is a viodeo showing how to.
