Standby Lamp repair (#002)

We take a look at the charging circuit of a AKAI RL-KL710 standby lamp and identify the failure mode using a Brymen multimeter (which can measure the AC component on a DC voltage) and an oscilloscope. Finally, we trace the faulty component using an oscilloscope and do a repair.

Here's an earlier article showing how I tuned the charging voltage of this particular standby light:
