So, my SDS7 died a few weeks ago. It has 12 modules and runs very hot. The rectifier for the +5V made a noise and the display flickered in and out. I\ufffdve removed all modules and the CPU starts and run with no problem. Reseating modules one at a time works fine but the more modules that are connected, the more there is noise on the +5V rail ( no kidd....lol ). The VCO\ufffds sound garbled and the audio output has hum. I have replaced the capacitor on the +5V rail but there is still around 1V AC half wave noise on it. Both before the regulator and after the regulator. This leads me to believe that I need to replace the rectifier bridge with one that can output more current. Does anyone have any suggestion for a suitable one ? WT
