Citronic Ppx 450 Amp Fan Broken

[andaliteuk]

hey everyone, first topic ive posted in a while, but i need a bit of help lol

i just bought a citronic ppx 450 second hand, and turned it on for a test, and it works fine except that i noticed that the fan does not switch on

ive opened it all the way up, and given it a looking over, and started continuity testing the wiring starting from the fan, but so far i cant find anything wrong

i also checked for a voltage on the terminals of the fan while the amp was on, and still nothing.

any ideas??

thanks in advance,

will blake

Shouldn't need to be a company to buy from RS, I've done it myself heaps of times.

Farnell is similar, but like RS their prices are fairly steep.

There'd have to be plenty of other options for you locally though? Radioshack? Fans should be easy to get at almost any electronic components retailer.

Other online places you could try that shouldn't cost the earth would be Mouser and Digi-key, both of which allow individuals to buy online.
