Help!
My DDRC-88A doesn't work anymore, so no music.........

Half a year ago untill this afternoon I used my DDRC-88 with power always ON. Now I switched on my streamer and..... No music...checked....no Leds on the DDRC-88 are on........
What can I do? Before I've this posted I checked the powersupply-plug and the output was 12 Volt so that's NOT the problem....
Who can help me?

With kind regards, Wim

On the back of the case there is also a reset point that you can push on with a pen, but this doesn't work either, or maybe I'm doing something wrong....? Wim

Wim,
This is odd indeed, if the power supply is outputing 12V, I wonder if it’s the internal fuse of the DDRC-88A.
Just open the box, remove the fuse and check for continuity. Worth a trial since that’s most likely the case.

You’ll need a 250V 1A Slow blow fuse.

Hello Devteam,
Yes!!!! I can see and I measured with a multimeter: the fuse is broken!!
Thank you for your help!

But I wonder if its not better to unpower the DDRC-88 if it is not in use....?

Thanks again. Now I'm going to buy and replace the fuse.

Glad to hear that you’ve figured out the issue. The fuse might break after a shock (e.g. lightening) that might have happened.. I think that you’re fine with the unit ON at all times.

Keep us updated if you have any questions.

HI,
I replaced the fuse and the Leds are ON!!! Pfffff....
Thank you.
And I'm going to have the unit powered ON all the time as you suggest.
