FDPF 3860t for q12, q9, q5, q1 in DIY kit

Post by CSXRT4 »

Putting together this MS3 kit I got from DIYAutoTune. It seems that the q12/q9 tip125 and q1,q5 have been replaced with a FDPF 3860t. Just wanted to make sure this is correct and not a bagging mistake before I solder them on. Also, if they are correct, I assume I would not need a mica on q12/q9 since these have a plastic backing?



Thanks

We sometimes substitute parts for equivalents from other brands, but Q1/Q5 and Q9/Q12 are different transistors. If you got the same thing in both bags, please email us at websales@diyautotune.com with a picture of what you got and we'll get this straightened out.

We'll get a set of new TIP125s in the mail today.

For others following the thread, the FDPF 3860t transistors are being used to replace Q1 and Q5.
