HK Logic 7 amp capacitor fried




Your last option would be to get another blown amp and replace the chip with one that is not burned for the same reason.

the MY'15 amplifier module in this thread has no available spares ... so far 🤞
We can guess, it's a custom chip by ST. It is recognized to integrate ALL amplifiers (main+woof)
module tag
Overall PCB
But MY'14 and priors with independent woofer module has available ST spares and known to be serviceable.
prior design ✌️
This way you can easily sight chances of repairs without dismantling your W212.

specs are in about the right range for what I'd expect from the HK7 system.
but nothing on the chip we were shown looks like "TDA7801PD" (which is this chip in the SO36 package)

There's also a chance the suspect module is still okay because ST emphasizis on self-protection...
Just clean the brownish PCB and compare values with next similar amp over. Probe at the pins. Expect the PCB via to be "shorted open".
Cost-free 😎

oh fun. Mouser lists the TDA7801PD ... minimum order 310, for $9.87 each, extended price $3057, FIFTY TWO WEEK LEAD TIME.
estore.st.com will sell you 1 for $13, but says "OUT OF STOCK"
