Wow, I put this project on the shelf for almost 2 years before I pulled it back out. Ok, so I disconnected the coil on the board in question. I hooked it back into power and I am still getting the smell. Also I noticed the diode on the back is warm. Perhaps I need to order a complete set of all the ...

Yes replacing it helped but now when I run it through series to check the amps, I get .7amps and I begin to smell something burning

On my next day off I am going to recheck the backside for any bridges. Any other advice for me?

Sorry about the deal getting back to you. I had to get a new fuse for my multimeter. I did recheck the 2R2 resistor and you are right, it is showing 0 volts.

It is showing 0mV.

The resistor is good and two of the diodes measure 46mV and one is around 60mV. The last one seems to steadily increase while I am reading it where as the first two sit steady.

First of all I am working with the original PCB design. So I successfully completed the three blank board PCBs without issue and then turned my attention to the partially completed board. When it came time to do my initial power test while assembling I got 0.11 mA on the series test. This hasn't hap...
