I'm not sure if you had previously thought of this or not, but it's a minor job to open the power supply with the dead fan and simply replace the fan. I've done it a few times on PowerBases, and simply had to splice the black and red wires to accommodate the previous fan's connector.

This little revelation costs $14 or less for a new fan, versus the $50 bucks or more you spent on a power supply which a switch setup that is probably not 100% compatible with your PowerWave.






Hi Folks,

Just got a new power supply for my PowerWave (really just because the
fan quit on my old one).

My problem is that the new power supply is ON when plugged in (i.e. fan
runs and the leads are powered).  When installed, this prevents my PW
from booting.  Of course, the power supply is normally off or idle until
the keyboard power switch is pressed.

Any ideas on how to reset the power supply so i can boot up normally?

Would appreciate any help,
