Re: Heres the deal.
Hey guys.. real quick.. I placed the order a couple days ago.. then today i noticed on one of the caps i bought its a radiall cap.. the other two were FC SMD's this one is FC Radial... Did I order the wrong one....?Comment

Re: Heres the deal.
Those should have all been radial, thru hole (as they go through the board). The SMD's mount on the surface.Comment

Re: Heres the deal.
I talked to a classmate in my Computer Science Class about soldering, he said something about demagnetizing the caps.. and I think I'm way over my head here.. In the videos I watch about soldering and desoldering I never heard or seen anything about what he was talking about..Comment

Re: Heres the deal.
He probably meant discharging caps. The big main filter capacitor could hold a charge and you want to discharge it first.
Most modern lcd/tvs have a bleeder resistor and that discharges the big main capacitor after the power has been removed and unplugged in about 1 or 2 minutes.
You can verify if the big cap has been discharged by measuring its DC voltage with a multimeter.--- begin sig file ---

Re: Heres the deal.
Hey guys, like I mentioned before... I ordered the wrong one.. then just yesterday ordered the correct ones.. Anyways.. I desolder and soldered 4 of them I needed to replace... I must say its not all that hard (had I better experience and tools I wouldnt have been as sloppy im sure) Other then getting random drops of solder on the board..... it went pretty seemlessly. Now, it is a bit sloppy and if request is needed i can upload pics of it, but will some solder on the board in spots that serve no purpose mess things up.. its not globs of solder but kinda a smeared type of deal.... Thanks again guys for making this possible.Comment

How to deal with huge LCD screen when we are replacing the TV LED backlight?
Does anyone have a better way to deal with 70-inch TV or above LCD screens which are very easy to break when we change the LED backlight?
I'd broken 10 TV screens already.
One of my friend has 75 inch edge TV with one LED not working. I said : just leave it alone.
Is there a better way to ensure that the LED TV screen will not break? I need 100%. I can't afford the Robot either. -
Aftermarket screen prices have jumped for all Apple laptop display assemblies recently. I got something in Chinglish from a supplier on Whatsapp:

Hi, I have a problem with a Lenovo IdeaPad Gaming 3 15ACH6 laptop. My nephew asked me to replace the charging port because the laptop wasn't charging. This issue had happened in the past, so I knew that replacing the port was only a matter of time. Until now, my nephew managed to deal with the problem using a temporary solution: bending the positive metal tabs inside the port with a thin tool. However, this had stopped helping for a while. Today, I replaced the port – and to my surprise, after the replacement, nothing happens when I plug in the charger: the power LED doesn't light up, the laptop... -
Hello, I currently have a Dell XPS 8940 in our office for repair.
Service Tag: HG1Y673
The most recent BIOS is pictured below -- being available as an .exe on Dell website.
