The SmartHome Powerlinc 2413S (Also branded under parent company Insteon's name as Insteon Powerlinc 2413S) is a serial modem that allows for Home Automation using a computer - for control of lights, outlets, etc. As the main method of communication with smart devices, the Powerlinc 2413S is a pretty important device for users with SmartHome/Insteon networks and a single point of failure for the entire network. Unfortunately for those users, the unit is built with extremely unreliable capacitors that may go bad in as soon as 2 years, and functional replacement devices have crept into high-3-digit figures in price. Fortunately for those users, the capacitors are through-hole, large, and can be repaired for less than $5 plus shipping.
Known Issues
Symptom or Problem Encountered
Green power LED is not on, or glows very faintly. LED may also briefly flash red when unplugged from power. Device is unresponsive.
Causes
- Aging and cheap capacitors have begun to fail.
Solutions
- Capacitor Replacement
Disassembly notes
The Powerlinc 2413S is constructed quite simply - 4 Phillips-head screws on the back of the unit hold the top shell in place. A daughterboard inside which holds the RJ45 port is screwed into standoffs, which also hold the main board in place with 2 other screws. Mains power is provided to the board with screw-in terminals that attach to wires on the main board.
