    Identify Flawed Motherboards

    So I notice this forum has a whole section for recap'ing motherboards, and I was wondering how do you know a motherboard has bad caps?(Besides looking at the caps that is) Completely dead? Doesn't boot to bios?

    Since I have been repairing monitors (Up to 10 now) I think it's time to start expanding and learning more stuff to repair.

    Thanks in advance!

    Re: Identify Flawed Motherboards

    1) If the capacitors are off-brand
    2) If the capacitors are HN/HM with a datecode before '05 or '06 (not sure)
    3) If the capacitors are KZG or KZJ
    4) If the capacitors are bulged, even if they're known good series

      by thesame
      Hy guys , i have a DVR board DS-80104 REV 2.2 that was powered wrong, i have some smds on the board that are blown and i can't identify them , maybe if someone has this board somehow and we can identify the smds', i have searched online and i can't find a schematic.
      The smds are SOT-23-6 , one of them i think it has the marking ADJF since i found another one on the board with this marking , but the other one it seems that it starts with AG or it looks like. I would really apreciate if someone could help me identify those IC's .

      by chth96
      I mistakely pluged 100v japanese retro game console to 220v outlet.
      So It seems that glass fuse and varistor have been blew up.
      I can identify that voltage and ampere value of glass fuse(250V LF 1.6A),but It is impossible to identify varistor type in my sega saturn PSU(YAMAHA 35M07U XR258)
      Is there any way to identify varistor type in my sega saturn PSU?
      Any reply would be appreciated.


      EDIT:
      It seems that I finally found out what type this black varistor is. It is Panasonic ERZV05D221 “ZNR” Transient/Surge Absorbers (Type D) Varistor Voltage...
