Hi Don, I wonder if you have any information about the different between G4PC40UD (Q30 on SR inverter board) and G4PC40UD-E (i couldn't find data sheet )

thanks,

Sorry but they never gave us any kind of information about discrete components on any of the Avanti circuit boards.  In fact, within very specific guidelines, we were only allowed to replace those boards and retrun them for circuit board exchange parts pool.  The biggest issue with many of the later circuit boards were that in many cases they were multi layer circuit boards so even if you could replace a component you could not be sure that all of the connections were good throughout the different layers of the boards.

Good for you! That's the kind of repair work that I like to hear about. As I said, back in the day, BCI tied our hands as to what boards we were actually "allowed" to repair in the field. Again, great job. Don
