Could be rectifier, diodes, transformer, the list goes on.
YAH166B Snap-On Battery Charger Parts List
Toss it. It's junk. I've had three or four of those units go bad and the Snap-On dealer just laughed when I asked about warranty.
Not knocking Snap-On, I'm definitely a Snap-On kind of guy but their electronics stuff just doesn't hold up. |
I have heard this same story over the years. At least twice.
And both times the final answer was it was too expensive to repair.
But all is not lost! You can rip out the insides and install a battery charger inside the case. With a little wiring work you can hook it up through the existing cables.
Then you will have a charger that is easy to move. You would just have to open the case to turn it off or on.
