    1800uf 16v to 1500uf 16v, work?

    I have been reading and TopCat has said that he has had no problem changing them that were 6.3v. I'm sure it would be same? This is an HP mobo with one bulged 1800uf 16v cap by the gpu. A couple of 6.3v 1000uf caps in the same area are bulged too. I have a new Rubycon 1500uf 16v if it will work or a Nichicon 2200uf 16v and I have the proper 1000uf caps.

      This. I've done it on the VRM high before with no ill effects. As long as you use Rubycon MBZ or MCZ series, you will be fine.
      I love putting bad caps and flat batteries in fire and watching them explode!!

      No wonder it doesn't work! You installed the jumper wires backwards

        3COM OfficeConnect Gigabit Switch 16 (3C1671600)

        The switch has served me for 10+ years (was new when I bought it). It's a nice switch with connections on the back which makes for quite a clean desk. Reason for taking it apart was that the cooling fan was noisy so I expected it to be dirty/dusty inside and the need to order a new fan. What I found was that it was very dirty/dusty and some electrolytic capacitors which needs attention. There are 3 capacitors which needs to be replaced but the ESR on some of the other ones might be bad as well so I think I'll replace them all. Original...

        ASUS ROG Strix G713QR - Keyboard, backlight and side LEDs don't work
        by hollox123
        Hello, I have an "ASUS ROG Strix G713QR" laptop, and for approx. 3 months I have the following problems:

        1. Laptop keyboard doesn't work
        2. The backlight on the laptop keyboard doesn't work
        3. The x2 side LEDs (red) on the laptop don't work

        The power button works, the touchpad works, and all the USB, HDMI, Ethernet, etc. ports work.

        I already tried to reinstall all the drivers and reinstall Windows. So I don't know what to try anymore that is software-related.

        But I am strongly aiming that it is somehow a BIOS-related problem,...

        Abit BE6-II motherboard
        by ziplock
        Greetings,

        I have an Abit BE6-II motherboard that posts sporadically with the bare minimum components installed - CPU, RAM, PSU, and a Keyboard. I know it posts when the speaker beeps. Re-seating the components has no effect.

        I thought the sporadic posting might be capacitor related. Upon inspection, non of the caps are bulged or leaking and they are all original. So, I pulled them ALL. While the ESR is OK, over half of them are leaking current between 1 and 2 mA. The biggest offenders are way out of spec, like a 1500uf / 6.3V measuring 2600uF and many of the 820uF caps...

        lenovo 330s-15ikb, led num lock key always on and numbers don't work
        by resistor83
        hello everyone, I have a particular problem with this lenovo ideapad 330s-15ikb. I had to replace the motherboard due to liquid damage, after replacing it I noticed that some letters on the keyboard do not work. So I bought a new keyboard and now all the keys work except the numeric keypad area. In practice the num lock key LED always remains on and the numbers do not work. Has anything like this ever happened to you? I also tried changing the keyboard again but the same defect remains on the numeric keypad.

        I tried updating the bios but the problem remains

        DYMO Rhino 5200 Industrial Label Maker that the backlight does not work any ideas
        by sam_sam_sam
        I just bought a used one for a decent price for a used device it prints very nicely and clean and clearly so I am not going to complain about it but I would like to get it working again anyone have any suggestions on how to repair this back light

        If I can not get the controller to work properly then I will probably have an external power supply for the backlight because it is difficult to see the screen without out it

        One —>the LEDs might be bad
        Two —> the buck converter or regular might be bad
        Three —> the controller might not...
