    Recapping Info

    Does anyone know who provides a motherboard recapping service located in the U.K please.

    I have read the FAQ's and note that it is not too difficult to recap a mobo but I am not that good with a soldering iron and would rather leave the DIY option till very last.

    Many thanks for any info provided.

    Cheers

      Guide to transplant MEC1503 EC chip and EEPROM reprogamming for T14s gen 2 and X13 gen 2
      by acedogblast
      This is a guide that I am writing for helping others to replace their MEC1503 EC chip if it breaks (or to get around an inconvenient prompt to the BIOS). This forum has been extremely helpful to me so I would like to contribute to help others. I will tell you right now that this task is very difficult to do. You MUST have experience and tools to do precision micro-soldering, BGA reballing, trace repair, and general laptop repair skills.

      There are some specialty tools needed to do this task. The replacement MEC1503 chips can be acquired from Aliexpress. Do not buy the bare chips as...

      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...

      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:

      Trying to understand how to find best replacement cap for old parts.
      by samoelec
      Disclaimer: This is the first time I step into the realm of analog electronics and my natural language is not English, so please forgive me if I failed to use the correct terms when describing things.


      Recently I purchased a Tektronix TDS1012, a 20 years old product for cheap and I thought it could be a nice opportunity for playing (i.e. recapping) and learn something in the process.
      The power supply board is exactly the same from this post so I'll just steal it for now.

      I'm trying to find replacements for all those Lelon electrolytic caps, but then quickly...

      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...
