I have NO
idea what the voltages present should be. :) I would disconnect and insulate the capacitor
leads and retest. BTW all the OEM capacitors I have encountered DO contain PCBs, so keep
that in mind.

So the old charger on my E15 (wreck-trak) stopped
working this summer, and this fall I figured I would check it.
Symptom was no charging, 110 on primary, transformer was very hot
after being on all night.
Power to 36 volt molex line into charger: Check and ok.
Voltage across diodes: .6 volts, check
Voltage across secondary BOOM shorted a diode by mistake.
Raw AC from secondary: 8-10 volts or so. Odd.
So on a lark (and since I blew a diode) I replaced both diodes,
cleaned up the connectors, and tried it this evening.
Fail. No charging at all.
Did I actually have the transformer fail? What kind of voltage AC
should I see between the transformer secondary poles and what DC
should I see on output with the charger disconnected from the
pack?
Drat.
