How to go about checking this PCB
Hi, I have this ignition PCB, it opens a valve but does not ignite. I bought a primitive tester for £7.99 and what I checked was the fuse and the output terminals.
The fuse is ok and output terminals show 0.05 (My Ohm meter goes from 1 to 0 and says 200kO on the selector knob dial). But I can't read anything on the input of the grey little box the output terminals are.
I went to the local phone shop and the person there poked around with the meter and spotted a blown capacitor.
He said he would be happy to swap out any faulty part but also said that he had no means of finding which one was which.
Can I find anything conclusive with a multimeter on the board?
I understand that capacitor appears as an open circuit to the 3V multimeter.
If I wanted to order the capacitor, how would I figure out its specs?
Please could anybody check out the photo?
There is a primitive diagram on the box.
