    Need help identifying cap...

    I'm trying to identify a cap that has had the value/voltage information blown off. It is a CapXon, and the only information still readable is:
    KF105 C
    P742
    VENT

    If anyone knows the value/voltage for this cap, it would be greatly appreciated!

        It's a Westinghouse LCD monitor, model # L1975NW.

          And therein lies the problem.

          The value is printed on the other side, which has been pretty much obliterated.

                You are correct.

                Next time, I won't post while something is on the stove potentially boiling over.

                    Post a picture of where it is on the board using manage attachments and not inline. If you have a multimeter, you can test the positive hole (using continuity) to see what voltage rail it sits on. And maybe identify the caps in terms of voltage and capacitance around it so we can make an educated guess.

                    PS. Stove is now off.

                      Will do, but I'll have to get that in the morning. I do have the multimeter, but not the camera.

                          If you can still accurately measure the height and diameter those values may
                          only relate to one cap on the datasheet? or There are references on this site to Capxon KF which give the size and values of some caps.

                            Many manufacturers use the same power board. I found this on ebay.

                            http://www.ebay.com/itm/230710190362

                            If you look at the caps you have, maybe by process of elimination you can deduce the value of the blown cap.

                            Otherwise, you can seach this forum with the part number of the power board as the Delta brand is very common here.

                                Thanks all - I'll check it out in the morning and let you know what I find out!

                                  It turns out I have a different board, the DAC-19M005. But now that I know which of all the numbers printed on the board is the actual part number, I was able to find the correct schematic and identify the cap as a 2200uF/10V.

                                  Now the hard part is done, all that's left is the really hard part - replacing the caps. I've worked on electronics before, but this is my first time at this kind of repair, so wish me luck.

                                      Thanks - been there, saw that. Doesn't make actually *doing* it any easier.

                                      On another note, I placed my order this morning through the Badcaps store. It's not a lot, but I appreciated your help and wanted to show it.

                                        The power board is usually single layer so it should go smoothly.

                                        If you are new to this forum, we can help a lot more if you please post clear focused pictures (max resolution 2000x2000 and 2MB) of your boards using the manage attachments button so they are hosted here. Information and picture clarity compositions should look like this post.

                                        We respectfully ask that you make some time and effort to read some of the guides available for basic troubleshooting. After you have read through them, then ask clarification questions or report your findings.

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