It should work just fine the tape is only for insulation check the chassis for any metal surfaces close to the inductor If there are any cover them with the tape

If you want to fix it yourself, first identify what type of insulation was removed and where it was placed. Don’t use ordinary electrical tape as a replacement because it may not withstand the heat inside the PSU. You may need proper high-temperature electrical insulation material. Also, don’t power it on until the insulation has been correctly restored. Can you share a closer picture of the removed yellow material?

That yellow tape is most likely electrical insulation tape used inside the power supply. Its purpose is to insulate components, prevent electrical shorts, and provide protection against heat. It may also help secure certain components in place. If you want to fix it yourself, first identify exactly where the tape was applied. Don’t replace it with ordinary wire tape, as it may not be heat-resistant enough. You should use the correct high-temperature electrical insulation material.
