    Recapping a TV

    Hi, I'm new to the forum so please be gentle.

    I acquired a 37" Wharfedale LCD Tv a couple of days ago that had no power at all. After opening the TV I noticed a bulging cap on the PSU. I replaced the cap and the tv now powers on but after a few seconds the picture starts bleeding and turning funny colours. Do you think it's a capacitor issue? Would it be worth replacing all the caps on the power supply?

    Thanks for reading.

    Model number might help? - as might pictures. Which cap did you change.

      Hi, thanks for the reply.
      The model number is: LCD37F1080P
      I replaced a 100uf 50v cap for a 100uf 100v one, I'll upload a picture later as I'm in work now on my phone.

      Cheers

          The video is not working. Actually I meant pictures of the power supply. Following is my usual welcome message
          Please post pictures of each board, front and back and close up of connectors, (max resolution 2000x2000 and 2MB) using the manage attachments button, which is found by clicking "go advanced" under quick reply.

          Please do not post inline and offsite as they slow down the loading of pages.

          It will be useful if you can say what the supposed fault was and a bit about yourself - skills tools etc

          Have you checked all the cable/connectors especially the one to the panel

            I think I saw this message before and was resolved when re-uploaded.

            It may be a video format processing failure at YouTube.

            YouTube may be freaking broken again!

              Recapping Sony ICF-SW55 - verifying cap values
              by proxneo
              Dear reader

              I am performing a repair on a Sony ICF-SW55, which includes recapping (some) of the SMD capacitors on the mainboard. I am looking for verification of their values. At the moment, I'm 95% sure I've got the right values, but it is hard to find some official, credible or multiple independant sources on this.

              At the moment, I have selected replacements based on the following list of values:

              3 x 470uF 10VDC
              3 x 4.7uF 35VDC
              4 x 47uF 50VDC
              8 x 22uF 6.3 VDC
              1 x 220uF 6.3VDC
              5 x 100uF 6.3VDC

              Which...

              Problem

              This is an LG edge LED lit LCD Display. The LEDs are on the bottom edge of the display. There are 2 bars (left and right) Each bar has many LEDs and a 6 pin connector. Each pin drive several LEDs thus is the highest current flow / heat junction. The weak lead free solder gradually fails with thermal expansion/contraction cycling and increases resistance. PSU will compensate up to a point, then when the current is too high, PSU just shut down the backlight causing a dark display. I have even seen one which the connector just fell off as solder points became completely detached....

              Wharfedale Movie Star 70+ Schematic Required.
              by hemant_2222
              Hello Friends,

              Greetings!

              I have taken this active subwoofer from Wharfedale for restoration. This is already in a bad shape as far as the connections goes. It has already been worked by local technicians. The most important part that I am looking forward is the schematic diagram, as there is jumper placed and a track has been cut, as if to bypass the actual connection. I am not sure if this is by design or someone has tried something to achieve.

              Another thing is the TDA7294 was badly treated with its legs cut and it had a crack too, so I have replaced it...

              Recapping a Denon AVR X6400h SMPS
              by Green Probe
              (TLDR: It was capacitor C6519 [Koshin KZH 50V22uF] and C6515 [Koshin KZH 25V47uF] on the power supply. I have questions at the end)
              Disclaimer: I'm an amateur hobbyist and will get things wrong.
              Always use caution when working around mains power and high voltage capacitors!

              Hey guys, I'm repairing a Denon AVR X6400h for my brother. It quit powering on after a power outage. It acted like this last time there was an outage, but after letting it sit overnight it started working again for a few years. This time letting it sit did not bring it back.
              SYMPTOMS:

              Recapping KRK VXT6 without original datasheets
              by slerner
              I'm desperate to save my pair of 2007 KRK VXT6 studio monitors, one of which died.
              Hoping for an easy fix, I bought a pair of new-old-stock replacement main boards. I installed one & it was DOA. Tried the other, also DOA. I suspect that 15 years in a Maltese warehouse dried out the electrolytic caps. I tried replacing just the two largest caps, which didn't help. Except to confirm that the old ones wouldn't reach infinite resistance & were a gram underweight.
              Q: How do I match the caps, since there's no series marked on the originals and no circa-2007 catalog or datasheets...
