Hi,
some of you may be familiar with this all Chinese design badged "Fender".
Odd looking but quite functional with a pair of 80W Hitachi mosfet amplifiers and inside a regulated SMPS in the bottom of main unit.
One arrive last week *dripping water* out the main unit and both speakers - seems it had been caught in a flood about 10 days previously and was immersed up to the line of the XLR sockets.
( Why do people think it OK to let the water remain inside and do its worst for so long ?? )
Got the speakers apart first, removed the four drivers, towelled off the surface water and let the lot sit out in the sun for a couple of days. It had become rather smelly and the only fix I know is sunlight.
Next, the main unit ( also smelly) had to be completely disassembled, a huge number of screws involved, to gain access the SMPS which has its own enclosure right at the bottom - it was still soaking wet.
Pulled out the PCB and fan and gave that a good wash in the sink followed by a half hour in the oven at about 80C. The PCB need scrubbing to remove the white residue of dissolving solder - as did the amp PCB.
Used up plenty of PCB spray cleaner and then applied WD40 with a soft brush to every metal surface and connector. Then left it all out in the sun too.
Tested the SMPS first with a dummy load and blow me down it worked fine. Attached the rest of the electronics and they worked OK too. Re-assembled and tested the speakers and found they had also survived.
Naturally, I let the main unit run for many hours to make sure there were no issues with hidden moisture.
On informing the customer of my success he asked:
" was there much to do" ?
