Broken Sneaky DS

[Charlie1]

I don't suppose there is anything fairly simple I can do to try and fix my Sneaky DS?

I've tried another mains lead and socket but still no light on the front logo, and no lights on the Ethernet socket either.

When I unplug the unit I hear a relay clicking as normal.

Couldn't find an internal fuse like some Linn products.

This doesn't describe the behavior in terms of lights, but reads like it's consistent with what you describe, and what you've tried...

Doesn't sound like there's anything simple, except to leave for 30mins or more, if you haven't already.

Thanks tokenbrit

It had been switched off for about 3 months :(

Probably dead PSU. Send it back to Linn. There is fixed service cost. I did it a couple of years ago with one I had and even got a new box :-)

Sounds like the symptoms one of mine had last year. I had it recapped by a dealer. Problem solved.

Yes, it is most likely one dried out capacitor in the PSU. Very common fault on these and other Linn switch mode supplies. Easy fix by a competent dealer, so you don't have to pay full fixed service price by having the unit returned to Linn.

Sounds promising - thanks gents!
