    Need help identifying solid(?) caps

    I have a friend who was trying to repair his own TV and brought me a cap he has failed to identify. I have pulled my hair out trying myself and decided to come to the experts.

    I have attached an image of the cap. It is 10mm in diameter and 10mm tall. It has a 5mm spacing between the leads. It appears to be polarized as well. The markings on the top are:

    33

      look like it is 33uF 2.5V

          I see where you would get the 33uF, but not the 2.5v?

              I don't think it is a solid cap, solid caps does not have vent marks.

              Lets asumme that the "33" marking is the value in uf, then by the size/height i think we could break the "2AT" marking as follows: 2A could be voltage code for 100V and the T may be the series code as "some" manufacturers use that kind of voltage and series codes, so maybe a 33uf/100V SMD cap?

              Also it looks a lot like a Samwha smd cap and the X shaped vent match to the Samwha, they even use "2A" as voltage code for 100V however i couldn't find any series code that match the "T".

              I have searched for some smd caps images just to see if caps with those values match the diameter/height and they did but all this is just an "educated guess" so it may be totally wrong as well.

                  It isn't an SMD capacitor since it had radial leads. Does anyone else have any helpful info?

                      Sorry about that, you're right it isn't an SMD capacitor, i didn't noticed that there is no plastic base in the capacitor.

                          Hi! I have the same situation. I have three caps with the following #'s.
                          74199
                          33 2AT

                              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...

                              Seasonic B12 BC-550 – barely 2 years old and with BAD CAPS already!

                              I know I've been a little scarce lately (like the last 2-3 years), but I'm still here and still doing my thing with fixing PSUs.

                              For today's considerations, I have a Seasonic B12 BC-550 [A551bcafh] 550 Watt ATX power supply for you (click on links for full size images).

                              It's a modern ATX unit with fixed (non-modular) cables and an 80-plus bronze certificate. Here's the label:

                              Assistance with identifying replacement caps on ASUS P5VDZ-MX
                              by crosswinds
                              Hello,

                              So, pulled a motherboard out from storage, was working when put away, wont post when I took it out of storage today.
                              Since it was working, and it looks to be essentially time that killed it I figured its a good idea to replace the caps before digging further.
                              Looks to be only good quality caps on this board, so might not be the issue. But it is closing in on 20 years now so, wont hurt i guess

                              Its a ASUS P5VDZ-MX board.

                              I would really appreciate some assistance on what the best replacement caps would be for these:

                              Panasonic(M)...

                              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."
                              ...

                              GeForce 6800GT recap, need help identifying caps and finding replacements
                              by fl0w
                              Hi,

                              I just noticed that my Asus V9999GT (GeForce 6800 GT) had some swelling capacitors. I managed to identify the brown ones, which are Nippon Chemi-Con KZG series, 6.3V 820µF, which I plan to replace with this.
                              But for the yellow ones, I guess these are Fujitsu caps, without being able to identify which series... A picture of the video card is attached to the topic.

                              I need to replace:
                              • 2x 2.5V 1500µF => I plan to use this
                              • 2x 16V 330µF=> I plan to use this
                              • 1x 6.3V 680µF=> I plan to use this
                              Am I correct with the cap choices?

                              Thanks for...
