Open 'em up and look for more fuses. There are modular
parts in many appliances, and the main fuse might be slower
or less sensitive than the fuse in one of the modules.
I've seen three fuses in series, and 'fusible resistors', reset-button
circuit breakers... safety consideration can get excessive.

Hi,
 
The photo here is one of a pair of Eppindorf 5415D centrifuges.
http://easthope.ca/Eppindorf5415D.jpg
 
This morning both machines failed to operate. No response when the
main power switch is flipped on. Empty display. No power indicator
light. Fuses are OK.
 
The machines are in separate rooms. There is power at the receptacles
they connect to. No other equipment is failing.
 
Ideas?
 
Thanks, ... P.

Same age? Close serial numbers?
 
As to power - did you plug in another piece of equipment, or just check with some sort of tester? If the neutral is out, you may have "power", but not usable power.
 
Suggestions in no particular order:
 
a) Find the main panel that feeds those circuits and the individual breaker(s). Cycle them.
b) Move the machines to another known-good receptacle.
c) Check the power cords. If they are not hard-wired, try removing/plugging back in.
d) Check the lid interlock(s). If they are sticking, the machines will not start. In the case of some of the machines here, they will not even light up if the interlock is not either fully open or fully engaged.
e) Replace the fuses anyway. They get tired and may not show as blown, but may still be open.
 
Good Luck!

"Separate rooms"!! That is truly confounding. Ordinarily, the 2 rooms
situation would imply 2 power circuits (breakers). But with identical,
spontaneous failures of both machines, they are _most likely_ on the
same circuit. So the breaker is tripped, or defective.

If mains is truly not to blame, I suggest that the 'failure' is
not simultaneous - just that you noticed both not working for
the first time.
 
Gremlins killed unit #1. Unit #2 was then used till IT failed.
 
... then you came in . . . .

Hi all, when I plug in the aforementioned TV I get no red standby light at
all and the backlight flashes a little longer than a second. Any ideas?

If I were to hazard a guess, that TV got spiked at some point. It may be as simple as a frozen relay in the starting circuit, a fusible link or similar.
Repeat: S.W.A.G. Guess.

I've stopped taking in all TU series Samsungs because most have bad display screens. Symptoms are from random shutdown and restart (with tell-tale very fine horiz lines in the pic as viewed up close) to no picture, just constant rebooting on plug in.
 
If the TV cycles the back lights every 15-20 seconds or so by itself, it's probably a bad display. Unplug the ribbon to the display and see if the back lights stay on.

I unplugged the ribbons, same thing - backlight flash at 1 second
intervals.

Unplug the harness from the main board to the power supply and plug in the AC. If the backlights come on and stay on with the main disconnected, your main is probably bad.

At least gparted recognizes the drive.
 
If you want to try the software recovery method, there are plenty of
programs to choose from:
<https://www.google.com/search?q=flash+drive+recovery+software>
Most of these include a "trial" version of the program to test if
there is a chance at fixing the drive or recovering the data.

My 2335 has been reliable for so many years and has now become faulty. The horizontal trace will only extend to about halfway of the scale and then folds backon itself. I have checked all the voltages on circuit board A12 and they are all good. I would appreciate any tips on how to diagnose this fault.

Horizontal deflection is usually pretty simple circuitry.
 
Could be drive transistors going flakey.

I printed stuff from USB at FedEx than transfered some files
from phone to USB then USB went blank. Took it home, same.
Is there any quick way to fix this?
 
Once my phone (same mfg but not this one) lost an entire SD card I never
recovered and that seemed to be because it went to zero power. I tried all
sorts of gparted utilities to no luck. (I had allowed the phone to partitin
the SD). I don't think I blanked an entire USB before.

Go to $store of choice, and buy a new one. You mentioned gparted, so I
assume you have a Linux box -- what happens in dmesg when you plug it
in?

I got tons of free usb drives from trade shows
 
I got lotsa boxes.. I forgot dmesg - please remind me
there is also a partition fixer that comes with windows
it comes up but it doesn't tell me what params to use
 
the partitionson (DOS/XP/CAELinux) the system am using took a lot of work to
set up and I don't want to mess them.
 
there was a lot of things I tried last time this happened - nothing worked
gparted says unrecognisable drive format
but I see this as prolly lost cause
 
The goon ghules at android run rough shod on a lot of standards

Well, dmesg would show kernel-level logging when you plug in the device,
that is "does the machine even recognize what you've plugged in?".
 
Might not show partition details (in fact, it probably doesn't, beyond
"found 1 partition"), but it'll at least show things like the
manufacturer / serial number / etc. that will at least point towards
"what has failed" (e.g. if it gets the vendor data, but can't talk to
the flash ... might be a case of an "unsafe ejection" broke the
formatting on the flash).

We have replaced the floppy disk drive with a USB drive. Now sometimes, but
not always, the output file is only 1-byte big!
 
I use two methods:
1: key DISK, display to disk, to save a .78d-format file I have to convert.
2: key Output, ASCII, Ascii dump, enter, print screen, to save a simple text
file.
 
Am I the only one with this trouble? Of course I formated the new USB key.
