Subject: Re: Commodore 16 Power Supply
Hi,
Can someone please help me.
I have a Commodore 16 computer without Power Supply.
I understan it requires 9VDC source at 1A.
What is the polarity of the connector? Is plus (+) on the center pin or on the sleeve?
Thanks

ISTR it was center negative, barrel positive. Open up the unit and check
the connections off the jack. Negative should go to the large PC trace on
the board. Also double check electrolytic caps polarity too. I think there
should be a fixed 5V regulator inside like the old VIC-20's.
I happen to have one in the basement here, somewhere . . . buried.
