Hi all

I'm wondering if anyone has had any experience with a Panasonic DMR-EZ47V DVD-VHS recording combo unit.

This was given to me to other day, I was told it was checked by a tech who indicated it has a blown PS....I took the cover off last night to see if there was anything obvious like a blown cap, saw nothing out of the ordinary apart from what looks like a burnt patch on the power supply board although there are no other components near this brown patch.

Has anyone had any experience with these if so is there any known faults?

I connected power cord and the front panel flashed with "Please Wait" message and it did this for what seemed like 5 -10 minutes, when it did stop flashing, the front panel indicated with what I can only assume to be an error code of U99 and one other time of U80 or U88

any ideas...cheers
