    One-year old Soniq T201-AU - bad Yihcon unit

    In a year old Soniq T201-AU set-top box was a leaking 1000uF 25V Yihcon unit on the +5V rail before the output inductor, which was causing this rail to be low.
    Replacing this capacitor fixed the problem - Typically, such brands of capacitors go bad after at least 3 years of operation, but failure after a year of operation seems a bit unusual to me.
    My first choice in quality Japanese electrolytics is Nippon Chemi-Con, which has been in business since 1931... the quality of electronics is dependent on the quality of the electrolytics.

          Repair of an LG split AC system indoor unit PCB
          by ngml
          I am trying to repair an LG split AC indoor unit, which does not start and gives a CH05 error code.
          This indicates an error in the communication between the outdoor and the indoor unit.
          The outdoor unit is fine, so the problem is the indoor PCB.
          The indoor unit is an LG PC09SQ NSJ (3SNM09JA2FA), and the PCB has the following type number: EAX35907219-1.2 (see photo1)
          I changed optocouplers ICO1X & ICO2X and the NPN transistor S9013 which drives optocoupler ICO2X (see photo2), but this did not remedy the fault.

          Does anybody have the schematics of this board,...

          Bose Companion 5 - Unit Powers On then Cuts Off Shortly After
          by nobbnobb1
          Hi guys,

          Trying to salvage a Bose Companion 5 computer speaker system that powers off shortly after powering on. It's got a primary USB input (built in DAC) and an aux 3.5mm input. The USB appears to be the primarily source that tells the unit to power on (control pod LED goes green) as the unit has no power switch.

          When I first connect power to the unit, plug in the USB, it will play audio nicely for a minute before it drops out and the unit appears to go into standby (control pod LED goes red). It stays in standby and I cannot seem to power it back on without physically...

          Yamaha HTR-3065 No power/No Standby
          by redbaron1007
          I got a Yamaha HTR-3065 on the bench currently that's got a no power/ no standby issue.When I plug it in it draws 0.01A from the wall, the relay for the ac transformer never clicks, there are no standby lights on the front, and pressing the power button does nothing. The fuse was not blown but upon measuring the voltages on the power low voltage power supply board (labeled operation 3 pg 89 in the schematic) they do not match what the schematic says they should be.

          Air-conditioning unit power supply failing to power up
          by Gjackson
          Hi all, I managed to narrow down which PCB was causing my Haier AC to throw out an E7 error code (E7 indicates that the indoor unit and outdoor unit cannot communicate). I found that the outdoor unit power board which gives 5v and 15v to the outdoor unit module board fails to fully power up.. The power Led starts to fade in incredibly slowly and the 5v and 15v power buses jump around like crazy and never reach their required voltage. I unplugged the module board from the power board and the power board powered up fine! It had a steady 5v and 15v out and the power LED came on instantly and Bright....

          Hitachi Power Supply Unit Interchangeability
          by navagator
          I have a Hitachi 57F710E rear projection set with a bad power supply board. I've tried to fix it with help from this forum as well as another one, but without success. Today I found a Hitachi rear projection set for sale on Facebook that looked just like mine. After contacting the seller I found out it was a 51F510. According to the service manuals my set uses a HA01312, POWER UNIT DP4X-DM_24W and the 51F510 uses a HA01313, U901, POWER UNIT DP4X_24W.

          Does anyone know if these 2 power supply boards are interchangeable?

          Thanks.
