This unit had a power supply issue which looked to be a common failure via complaints on reviews via Amazon. Searching on the internet all I found was board swapping and no real repair to the original power supply. A lot of bad info too from people that don’t seem to understand how power supplies work. Component level repairs seem to be a lost art these days so I thought I’d show how to fix this simple issue and hopefully others could benefit from this info to practice component repairs themselves.
Caps I installed were high temp / high frequency to assure long life:
(1) 10uf @ 50v
(1) 100uf @ 250v
(2) 1000uf @ 50v
Fixing the original components yourself makes the drinks in the unit taste so much better! ;)
Here are some parts links. Took awhile to get them as they were coming straight from China but they showed up within a couple weeks:

At the link above I ordered the 50v @ 10uf and the 5v @ 1000uf in their options menu.

I ordered the 250v @ 100uf from their options menu.
Make sure you have a power supply issue before ordering. If the power supply seems weak then it’s definitely caps. Nothing else really goes wrong with the power supply other than that. Solder joints are usually not great and could use a reflow in some spots.
Easy way to verify if it’s power supply is to detach the output 12v wires from the power supply and then attach the 12v car adapter and see if it works. If it does then the power supply needs attention. If it still doesn’t work then something else is a problem.
The switches on the back can be finicky and cause intermittent power issues too.
Good luck!
