    Help me with these pictures

    Hello everybody, this is my first post here, i hope this is the right place to ask. Also sorry form my english.

    The story, i have a Panasonic SC-AK78 and after a power cut off the stereo stopped working. When i'm trying to power the unit i receive an error F61. After some research i found out that the common thing is a defective power regulator (ic STK-470-040), i changed the thing but no luck. So i was thinking that some caps are dead.

    Please take a look at these pictures:

    The only caps i see something wrong with are the ones from the pictures. Do you think the red stuff around the caps is from cap leaking or is some kind of adhesive to hold the caps?

    Thanks.

      Just like you said, adhesive.

      I'd take the caps off of the board and check them on a cap meter if you have one. Sometimes a fluke meter will have this capability.

          I thought so, it was too easy lol. Unfortunately i don't have a cap meter, i saw there is a method to test the cap with an ohmmeter, i'll try that.

          Thanks.

              Heathkit IO-4205 Power Supply Caps
              by eryjus
              Hello,

              First, I am a complete noob with high voltage stuff. I'm learning, but I need help by someone looking over my shoulder.

              I recently came into posession of a Heathkit IO-4205 5MHz Dual Trace Oscilloscope. The documentation is copyright 1978. I'm told it works.

              I opened it up to check the caps before I applied power, and found the following black caps and wanted to know what they were. They are on the power supply board. I was able to read the name and model and came up with, "Nytronics 162J-1, 0.1uF, 20% tolerance, 2000VDC."

              Identifying caps on an old Zoom 9000
              by Paxman_Swede
              Hello!

              I have two projects on my work bench. One is a friends dead JBL Xtreme speaker with a blown voltage regulator and corresponding bulged and shorted cap. That cap has clear markings so I know what replacement I need for it.

              The other project however is a whole different deal. It's a Zoom 9000 guitar effect from the 90th that has developed a devil hound howl when there is no input from the guitar. I'm guessing caps problem. So, since I don't really use this effect anymore I thought it would be a perfect project to learn on.

              I have studied the board and...

              HannStar Hanns-G HC194d LCD monitor repair
              by momaka
              Normally, I never post repairs this quick after I do them, because… I am usually very slow. But today, I’m making an exception here. Why? No idea. Perhaps only because the repair details are still “fresh” in my head… which is ironic, given this is a 16 year old monitor that hardly anyone will care about today. It is new to me, though. I picked it up last November from someone on my local Craigslist. It wasn’t very close to where I live, but was close to a family friend that I had to go visit anyways. So after watching the posting on Craigslist for a few weeks and seeing it getting...

              Help with switching power supply caps
              by captain150
              I'm trying to repair two old VCRs, they both have bad caps. One has leaky ones, the other would barely run until I subbed in some caps from another power supply I had laying around (though they are the wrong values). This vcr works for an hour or two, but then the power supply starts whining and the picture gets lines in it. I didn't replace all the secondary caps, so another voltage might still be problematic, or the values I used are too far off.
              I've been on mouser and digikey but the options are a bit overwhelming. I just need some new ones that will work. They don't need to be top quality,...

              Gigabyte GA-6OXT :: caps question
              by Foetuss
              Good evening

              I recently aquired a rev 1.1 Gigabyte 60XT, and was suprised of the amount of leaking caps for a motherboard of the P3 era. Especially the way the 330µf caps seems like the housing discolored even.
              Now, there are some 3300µF 6.3V KZG series around the CPU. Would it be OK to replace them with something like EEUFR1A332 ? (Panasonic FR 3300µF 10V). Or was this board designed around very low ESR caps?

              But I was also suprised about the bigger boys, which are 330µF 25V.
              Could it be they used 25V caps because they were cheaper / available at that time?...
