L20 Component - Killer instinct 2?

[floodie]

Hi Guys - I have had a KI2 PCB that does an odd boot up, plays 5 frames of animation then repeats over and over. Have had the board with a couple of companies and no joy.

I thought i had personally checked each and every component on the board but it was only when i sent a picture to a chap who specialises in Killer instinct he said i have a dodgy L20 component. Its quite embarassing to not have noticed it sooner but he is right. Its a rectangular shaped piece which looks like there are many of all over the board. It has physically been damaged with a chunk taken out of its corner, and it can be moved a few mm if you touch it. Whether its the root of the problem i dont know but its defo a problem.

The pic shows the L20 that is broken indicated by a pinkish arrow - the green arrows show a similar looking component in its correct solid/not moving state.

Question is, what do i do now?. Where can i get one of these from? who can repair it? (im based near London UK).

Any help much appreciated - however its a big day, im chuffed to bits after having this board for over a year now.

thanks

Dave

Based on the silk screen marking of 'L' the component is an inductor, about all I can help with.

Maybe ask the KI guy who you sent the pictures to if he knows the part number, the replacement would be fairly easy.

Hi there. Ah thank you. Is it a part thats possibly a generic off the shelf part of specific for Ki2?. Hoping i dont need to buy a broken ki2 board to salvage the compont off it!!

Yeh ive asked him but not heard back yet. Ill give him a nudge. Fingers crossed!

I would have though it would just be an off the shelf part.
