    Replacement capacitors wanted - Where can I get them?

    Hello,
    I'm in England and I need to know where I could buy good replacement low ESR capacitors to repair quite a few dead motherboards I have.

    They all show the typical symptom of capacitor failure: bulged and/or leaking capacitors. Some others do not show apparently broken capacitors, but fail to power up as well.

    Where could I get them? What makes/brands would be available here?

    Could you please reply soon?

    ThanX

      www.digikey.com will ship internationally. They have Panasonic FC serioes, which are excellent caps. They're a bit pricey, but will have what you need.

              Google Pixel 5 - Proximity Sensor Issues - Reflow/Replacement procedure tipps wanted
              by groomit
              Hi,
              I just replaced the battery on a Google Pixel 5.
              After that the proximity sensor isn't functioning properly any more. It is constantly activated. So when playing a voice message on Whatsapp, the Screen instantly turns off.
              Checking with a sensor app I can verify weird behavior of the sensor. It is triggered when nothing is near and sometimes works correctly when squeezing the phone next to the sensor hole.
              The rubber seal is on again (as mentioned in various suggestions in other forums).

              This smells like a cold or broken solder joint. So I'd like to reflow...

              AA and AAA battery charger capacitors?
              by slybunda
              hey all, iv got my favourite battery charger here which iv had for many years probably 15 years now or maybe even more. it still works good but thought id open it up to clean the dust out of it, lots of dust inside but now its clean and noticed 4 capacitors inside it and wondered if i should replace them.
              it has inside:
              2 x 47uf 16v caps 105c branded as Su'scon (lol sounds sus to me)
              2 x 470uf 16v LZ105c branded as G.Luxon

              not heard of these brands are they any good?

              iv attached photos of the charger and the board inside for an idea on the type of...

              Panasonic switching power supply daughter board has two 27uf @ 50 volt capacitors which I do not keep in stock
              by sam_sam_sam
              I did not have any 27uf @ 50 volt capacitors but one nice thing is that it has enough room for two capacitors in parallel a 22uf and a 4.7uf @ 50 volts 22 plus 4.7 equals 26.7uf which so very close to 27uf I will show some pictures of it sometime tomorrow

              This is one of the shit est boards I seen in a very long time and it was the daughter board the traces just lifting off the board I had to use the capacitor leads to repair the the traces and the main board is not any better because I had to repair several traces for the daughter board to the main board

              After all of...

              Unknown transformer : how to find a good replacement part ?
              by the_rem
              Hello guys,

              I would like a quite old but still good 800 W ATX PSU to be repaired. The problem was an extremely heavy coil whine coming from the small secondary transfomer on the PCB.

              I desoldered it hoping the references on the upper side would allow me to find a adequate replacement part. Sadly the written references drove me nowhere but to the manufacturer (I-MAG). I sent them a message like a bottle in the see asking them to send me a datasheet of the transformer. And... They responded ! I received a kind of datasheet (see attachment) but my competencies do not allow...

              PS4 controller left stick potentiometer replacement issue
              by ezenia
              Hello,

              Not sure if this is the correct section, but I have a PS4 controller that I am trying to fix. It developed stick drift on the left stick and the usual simpler methods did not fix the problem.

              So I went on eBay and ordered some replacement potentiometers. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/174967976757 is where I got them from.

              I took the green potentiometers off the replacement sticks and soldered them onto the PCB. Assembled the controller and ran some tests. The drifting was somewhat fixed (not fully in center, but way better than before). However,...
