Yeti 6000X the 230VAC is faulty
Does anyone have experience of which electrical components usually fail in a 230 inverter?
I need the 6000X very urgently and there are no spare parts available in Europe?
Can anyone give me a tip? I am able to replace the components myself.

@Stefan,
I see you are in urgent need and are highly motivated to resolve the issue! I really wish we could ship you a replacement PCB but that option is not available.
I would caution you that working on a high voltage inverter board and taking the Yeti apart can be dangerous and is not recommended! You can shock yourself and by standers, start a lithium fire or damage the Yeti more accidentally!
If you are asking these kinds of questions and are past Warranty, I would do a search for "Electronics repair near me" or search theRestartProject.org to find a person or clinic near you for the skills and tools needed to safely examine the PCBs for problems.
They may be able to inspect the board and replace a damaged component or touch up soldering. They will not be able to re-flash a micro-controller or replace it but there may be a bad component like a capacitor or blown fuse they can help with.
If you do find a fix or PCB repair help, please reply here to guide others on solving the issue!
