12V power supply of noname LED moving head

In continuation of Lighting: DMX controller for LED moving head , I’ve bought the third device for 50 PLN.

Not a lot difference with previous 2 devices, also noname. This time gears are made of plastic.

The internal power supply looks not good. The connector is damaged, probably it was a poor contact and it overheated. 2 bulging electrolytic capacitor.

Labels on the PCB: HL-YT60C-001, HS-12298. Label on the transformer: HL-60-12-15.

What do you think. guys: is it worth to fix this power supply or is it defected by design and it is better to get rid of it?





Ok, so @lechu told me the PCB is too damaged by heat and may became conductive.
@kosma told me if this is just a 12V power supply (nothing special), it is better to replace it whole.

You can look at power supplies for embedding, like this one: https://allegro.pl/oferta/eps-65-12-zasilacz-do-zabudowy-65w-12v-5-42a-17347042649 - but first check if the power rating at least matches the device - should be written on a plaque somewhere on the assembly itself.

Greatest difficulty will probably be to get the dimensions to match, so take some measurements of the old PSU.
