Hi all,
Latest update.
With some help and phone calls from Bill the fault seems to have been
isolated. I have removed Q11 from inside the oven and it is cactus. Q9
is also very suspect so I'm going to replace that for good measure.
Q9 is a 2N1701 in a T08 package. Thanks to various people I should be
able to track one down. Q11 is marked as 1854-0003 and that's an HP
internal number and all I know. Might have to substitute that one.
After all this I have some quality photos and can knock up some good
descriptions of the repairs and the 106B internals if anyone is
interested. Any websites hanging around that want to take what I have?
Regards and thanks to all!
Jim Palfreyman
Jim, the 1854-0003 is a pretty common HP part in older eqpt. If you have
junked 5245L counter handy, it's full of them, especially in the decade
counter PCBs. If you don't have one handy, I have an assembly here with 8
of them on it. If you like, I can send it right away (if you're outside the
USA, you pay postage).

I went to a bookstore and asked the saleswoman, "Where's the
self-help section?" She said if she told me, it would defeat the
purpose.
Thanks for that! - I do have a number of the 5254L units and one of
them is now being eyed off for organ donation. So thanks to all offers
for the 1854-0003.
The 2N1701 in a T08 is my next quest...

carefully crack open the old to8 can to expose the leads internally, strip
out the old transistor and cobble the to220 on top with appropriate leads.
The to220 should fit under one of the old mounting screws? one direction
will give the base and emitter connections properly.

Well one of my old 5245L devices submitted to organ donation. After
opening it up I found many many transistors.
None of which were the 1854-0003.
Are you sure that's what you have?

Hi all,
The transistor in my unit (not a 4B model!) is 1854-0015. Lots of those.
If someone can confirm this is identical to 1854-0003 I'll use it.
Otherwise I may have to take up one of the very kind offers!
On the 2N1701 - it has to be in a T08 package. This transistor sits in
a special heat sink that is bolted to the oven wall. So unfortunately
I can't substitute.
