Anyone got a UK source for these MG300J2YS50?

How do you know? Is it physically damaged? Just curious.

What caused it to fail? Just replacing it and hoping for the best might be risky!

Looks Expensive

Has it taken any driver circuitry with it?

[ChrisB]

I think someone has replaced these before, cant find the thread currently

I've asked another person as well if they know of a source.

Yes please, some idents on those marked parts would be handy etc, if you want the high res versions of those pics I'll e-mail them over if that helps.

John Kay bought 2 and changed one. He might sell the other, if you asked him nicely.

The IGBT was obviously blown, hole in the side and a trace of black soot on the alluminium housing.

No signs of other damage.

According to John Kay's post about £45 for two new ones.

I suspect the brush fault I had a few months prior probably aged the IGBT

I have PM'd John in hope he still has a spare and is willing to sell it? If not at least find out where he sourced it.

Thanks everyone, I will let you know how I get on....

How did you get on Simon, is it back on the road ??

Hi Chris, it is back on the road...

I sourced a new IGBT from hong kong at a resonable price.

Replaced it and hoped for the best... Still same fault...

Sent the controller off to Evan to rectify the rest of the failure.

Back from Evan and just been road testing over the bank holidays, all looking good.

I assume the driver circuitry had been damaged also.

Good to hear that its back on the road again
