    Replacement cap help nvidia mx4000

    Hey guys awesome forum. Found this site looking for info on a tv that died and figure why not ask about my card also.

    I have a apollo mx4000 that stopped working long ago that had swollen caps. I don't remember exactly what it would do but i'm thinking it wouldn't even show up or would give an error at post.
    After reading here i see there are more to caps than i thought. I never even knew they were made of different materials. I was wondering if you guys/gals could help me chose what caps to buy as replacements since i have to order some for my tv today?

    Here are the ones i took off of it.

    Rifeking 1000uf 6.3v other side says vent -40-105°C
    leg space is ~3mm and can is 8mm wide x 12mm long

    Rifeking 470uf 16v other side says vent -40-105°C
    leg space is ~3mm and can is 8mm wide x 12mm long

    FZ 10v 680uf other side says 105°C R6A
    leg space is ~3mm and can is 8mm wide x 12mm long

    R.K. 220uf 6.3v other side says -40-105°C
    leg space is ~2.5mm and can is 6mm wide x 8mm long

    Sorry for the bad pic.

    Re: Replacement cap help nvidia mx4000

    For the 1000uF Rifeking Caps, use these
    For the 680uF FZ Caps, use these(note that they are a bit longer but they will work, you may not be able to use the next PCI slot)
    For the 470uF Rifeking Caps, use these
    For the 220uF RK Caps, use these

    Yes, it is OK to change the voltage as the rating is simply the maximum the cap can handle.
    I love putting bad caps and flat batteries in fire and watching them explode!!

    No wonder it doesn't work! You installed the jumper wires backwards

      Well i replaced all but the 220uf caps and nothing. PC won't even try to boot with the card in. I think it may be a lost cause.

            Ya they are bad as all get out but it's an old fuji a200 and these kind of pics are not really in it's range. Really close it does great and far away not so bad. If you can tell me how to fix my phone after the OS crashed and burned i could try with it. Since it's not recognized by usb it seems bricked though.

            I could borrow a better cam if it would help but visually i don't see any thing wrong.

              What phone?
              Your camera has a macro function! Use it and make sure the lense is clean.

                I have and it does great at really close but this cam sucks for these kind of pics. The 3-4th pics are close macro and second is macro. https://www.badcaps.net/forum/showpo...5&postcount=26

                I've had this cam for years and it's just how it is. I have tried all lighting and do use a tripod and timer because it blurs easy if you use the 2mp setting instead of the 1. No shutter speed settings.

                Nokia 5610 rm-359. I have firmware files just can't get it recognized through usb. Thought about buying a new phone but i only use it to call and took pics with it since it was better than my camera.
                I take that back i have the rm-242 files

                  can you take close up pics of your solder job?

                    I can but i would rather show one of other ones. This one is ugly with a bit of over solder. Using solder that measures .039" and it has tiny ports(?).

                    Batteries are charging so will be in the morning but i'll post them.

                      Here is a pic of the soldering. I'm not a pro as you can see but do better on on bigger boards.

                        Macbook Air M2 A2681 Kernel panics after screen replacement
                        by reformatt
                        Just had a customer bring in a M2 MBA A2681 that had had a screen replacement in April at another repairer. Since then, she has been getting intermittent kernel panics. It's an aftermarket screen, and of course it fails in diagnostics as the calibration hasn't been done. The error in the panic log is "No device added after powering on the rails".

                        It seems the original repairer has swapped the board and the screen to other MAC's, and said that it isn't a screen issue. From what I understand, by doing a quick search on Google, this is in fact a screen issue. The panic relates...

                        Unknown transformer : how to find a good replacement part ?
                        by the_rem
                        Hello guys,

                        I would like a quite old but still good 800 W ATX PSU to be repaired. The problem was an extremely heavy coil whine coming from the small secondary transfomer on the PCB.

                        I desoldered it hoping the references on the upper side would allow me to find a adequate replacement part. Sadly the written references drove me nowhere but to the manufacturer (I-MAG). I sent them a message like a bottle in the see asking them to send me a datasheet of the transformer. And... They responded ! I received a kind of datasheet (see attachment) but my competencies do not allow...

                        PS4 controller left stick potentiometer replacement issue
                        by ezenia
                        Hello,

                        Not sure if this is the correct section, but I have a PS4 controller that I am trying to fix. It developed stick drift on the left stick and the usual simpler methods did not fix the problem.

                        So I went on eBay and ordered some replacement potentiometers. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/174967976757 is where I got them from.

                        I took the green potentiometers off the replacement sticks and soldered them onto the PCB. Assembled the controller and ran some tests. The drifting was somewhat fixed (not fully in center, but way better than before). However,...

                        i have a 2020 macbook pro 13" A2251 with 820-09149 logic board so i found an issue with chip labeled U6903 according to schem. boardview using flexBV software, so i removed it from the board and the issue im having is that the chip says "07A08FI ELC180​" on top of it but when searching for a replacement chip, i can find tons of identical looking chips that also have "ELC180" printed on them but the first set of digits is never the same so im trying to find out if i need this exact chip with these same numbers as mine and if not which ones are compatible as a replacement?...

                        klipsch kda-500 amplifier suitable power supply capacitor replacement ?
                        by r2digital
                        I have a klipsch kda-500 that would turn on and allow me to get into the web management but it was picking up a lot of noise from audio sources so i decided to replace the smd caps on the power supply along with radial one. Some one was in here before me and they basically burned the bottom side of the traces off for the radial cap but i was able to repair it without any real problem. I thought i did a good job sourcing out replacement caps but apparently not and now i can't get the power supply to turn on it just constantly try's to keep turning on. Attached is a picture of the power supply before...
