Title: Channel 2 staying on
Post by: kevr on November 27, 2011,

I have one channel that stays on, it was OK to start with but failed after an hour or so. I have changed the MOC3023 for a new one but no change in behaviour, I understand the problem is most likely the triac.

My question is, will this part substitute the mouser part with out any issues, I can source these locally.

I am having similar issues with a couple of my controllers. One of them is a LE v5, and I've tried switching out pics and triacs and checking soldering, but nothing has fixed it. The channel that stays on is channel 8, on my controller, and I'm scared that i won't be able to get it working correctly before my show starts, which is this Thursday (doesn't leave me much time).
