    Faulty cTc in Enermax PSU, need help

    Hello guys, I've been lurking around the forums to scavenge some info about these cTc caps i found in my Enermax PSU. Thanks to some of the fine users here i was able to identify the brand and eventually check their website as well as different databases. Unfortunately, i was unlucky in my effort to find the ones i got out (leaking) of my PSU. Since we all know that there is no reliable data(sheet/s) out there, my last hope is in you guys. I thought that maybe some of you, having had experience with this company and its (wrong)doings, would have stumbled upon the same caps.

    There are 2 faulty types i got with markers as follows:

    -cTc VENT 6016 3300uF 10V !! LFKM !! 105c

    -cTc VENT 6016 1500uF 10V !! LFFM !! 105c

    Now, the main problem i am having, is to make difference between LFKM and LFFM. Anyone knows what these markings stand for? I would easily replace them with any brand of electrolytic caps, but since they are actually 2 different types i will need your help guys.

    Thanks in advance and keep up the good stuff
    p.s. i'd be really grateful for ANY info you could pass my way.

    edit. This may not be the right place for this topic, if so, i am sorry; still new around here, plus - i figured since i need to identify caps it will belong here

        EDIT

        The PSU in question is an Enermax Liberty ELT500AWT. I saw some topics aobut that psu, seems that many people are having problems with the CEC(cTc) caps. I am wondering how to find out exactly what caps i need to do the recapping. I think i am gonna use Panasonic low impedance series. but that different marking on the original ones still bothers me :<

        EDIT2

        I think i found what i need in this topic:

        Anyway, i will be looking into it, but if someone has the right information, please do not hesitate to post. Thanks

          Why doesn't current just bypass faulty capacitors.
          by Spudgun
          Hello esteemed members. I appreciate that my question will strike some as being somewhat childishly simple, but it genuine perplexes me! I have repaired several laptops before by removing a faulty capacitor that was short-circuiting the motherboard, whereupon the laptop would then work. For me, it begs the question that, if the current can bypass where the capcitor was when it has been removed, why didn't it just bypass it when it was present and faulty,? I can't get my head round the premise that if the other side of the capacitor is connected to ground, then why doesn't the current simply bypass...

          Acer A317-53 need help to disable faulty onboard ram
          by b-slayer
          Hello.
          I have an Acer Aspire A317-53 laptop with faulty onboard ram modules, after online searches, I have only found two options to get it working :
          - first one is to modify le bios to disable the onboard ram.
          - second one is to disable the onboard ram by desoldering some components on the mainboard.

          so after some hours google-ing, i have to give-up the modified bios option, main reason is I couldn't find anywhere a such modified Bios, alternate reason is that if windows update makes a bios update, the problem is always here...

          so i found that my motherboard...

          Ryobi 36V (aka 40V) 6Ah Faulty Battery Pack
          by brispuss
          Purchased a Ryobi 36V 6Ah battery pack maybe just over a year ago.

          Battery pack had been used on about 3 or 4 occasions for powering a cordless lawnmower. I was wanting to use this battery pack again recently, but on checking the battery charge state via the battery pack test button, there was no LED indication at all of charge state which suggested the pack was fully discharged.

          I found this to be odd as I usually fully recharge battery packs shortly after use. So either the pack developed some sort of fault which completely discharged the pack cells (after recharging),...

          Lenovo Yoga X1 Gen4 - Faulty Bios or what is going on?
          by AYsys
          Hello dear forum members,

          I own two Lenovo Yoga X1 Gen 4 laptops. One of them had a touchscreen problem, and I tried to fix it by externally flashing the BIOS. Unfortunately, I didn’t save the original BIOS and accidentally flashed it with a faulty one. After that, the device stopped working completely.

          I then had the idea to make a BIOS backup from the other Yoga X1 Gen 4 (same hardware) and flash it onto the non-working device.
          Nothing was flashed here — the BIOS was only backed up.

          I created the backup using a CH341A Black programmer and NeoProgrammer....
