V4 getting hot after 5-6 minutes
« on: February 04, 2021, 22:55:42 »
Heya all,
 My V4 interface has suddenly started to heat up after about 5-6 minutes
Communication will stop, unplug from OBD & laptop, wait till it cools, then reconnect works again 5-6 minutes
Any ideas??  Should I open?? I use it almost every day........

just unscrew and replace heated up part...
perhaps that is tantalum capacitor in size D or E

what is minor hardware version? - 4.0 or 4.1 etc.

look a like hard broken
recheck all transitors in sot-23 package marked as 6C and 5C and diodes WW1
there is couple of them with crack holes due to breakage
look on ICs MAX4664 for the same damages
one of them can be hot because it is broken
really there are many damages can caused the errors...
