    Question Neo magic pulsar e4 error every startup

    I have a neo magic pulsar that throws an e4 error code every startup.
    Once I reset the machine it plays fine. From what I've read here it seems like a board issue.
    Does anyone repair these boards or would have a working one to sell?

    the capacitor that saves memory doesn't hold a charge anymore. this becomes a common problem.

    the machines in palours are on 24/7 so they don't use battery backup.

    most will hold a charge for at least a few days,

    It is an easy DIY fix if you are a little handy with electronics.

    Don't need the capacitance tester, already know the supercap is dead.

    Don't have any soldering skills or equipment. Not even sure where the board or bad cap is located.

    "Solved" the problem by leaving the machine on for an extended period of time. That recharged the supercap and now the error is gone. I make sure to turn the machine on every couple of days now.
