          Your pix are not well focused, but if you mean the reddish marks on the PCB, those are probably inspection marks (made by the inspector to show (s)he looked at that part).

              Looks like there is glue holding the caps in place, this is common.

                      It looks like it spreads all the way to the Bridge rectifier, just remove the cap and see.

                          Is it glue or the liquid from leaking capacitors ?

                              That is why you remove the cap to find out, I cannot really tell from the pictures.

                                  by momaka
                                  Normally, I never post repairs this quick after I do them, because… I am usually very slow. But today, I’m making an exception here. Why? No idea. Perhaps only because the repair details are still “fresh” in my head… which is ironic, given this is a 16 year old monitor that hardly anyone will care about today. It is new to me, though. I picked it up last November from someone on my local Craigslist. It wasn’t very close to where I live, but was close to a family friend that I had to go visit anyways. So after watching the posting on Craigslist for a few weeks and seeing it getting...

                                  Casing Power MPT-301 [PCB ATX9806b-p REV: A3]
                                  by momaka
                                  This one should make @Pentium4 smile (if he is still reading BCN forums) – I got a new old stock / open box Casing Power MPT-301 PSU on eBay for $4 total.


                                  Yes, it’s a very generic-looking box, but the manufacturer isn’t (at least not back in the days), which is…

                                  Macron Power Technology Co. LTD.

                                  Let’s look at the PSU itself.



                                  The shell/case also appears quite generic, like many “sold-with-the-PC-case” units. However, the shell is well-formed and has decent steel thickness. In terms of...

                                  Heathkit IO-4205 Power Supply Caps
                                  by eryjus
                                  Hello,

                                  First, I am a complete noob with high voltage stuff. I'm learning, but I need help by someone looking over my shoulder.

                                  I recently came into posession of a Heathkit IO-4205 5MHz Dual Trace Oscilloscope. The documentation is copyright 1978. I'm told it works.

                                  I opened it up to check the caps before I applied power, and found the following black caps and wanted to know what they were. They are on the power supply board. I was able to read the name and model and came up with, "Nytronics 162J-1, 0.1uF, 20% tolerance, 2000VDC."
                                  ...

                                  by momaka
                                  I know I've been a little scarce lately (like the last 2-3 years), but I'm still here and still doing my thing with fixing PSUs.

                                  For today's considerations, I have a Seasonic B12 BC-550 [A551bcafh] 550 Watt ATX power supply for you (click on links for full size images).

                                  It's a modern ATX unit with fixed (non-modular) cables and an 80-plus bronze certificate. Here's the label:

                                  Identifying caps on an old Zoom 9000
                                  by Paxman_Swede
                                  Hello!

                                  I have two projects on my work bench. One is a friends dead JBL Xtreme speaker with a blown voltage regulator and corresponding bulged and shorted cap. That cap has clear markings so I know what replacement I need for it.

                                  The other project however is a whole different deal. It's a Zoom 9000 guitar effect from the 90th that has developed a devil hound howl when there is no input from the guitar. I'm guessing caps problem. So, since I don't really use this effect anymore I thought it would be a perfect project to learn on.

                                  I have studied the board and...
