Hello,
I am trying to repair a 2005 27" Sanyo CRT TV with a Samsung tube. None of the caps on the mainboard show any signs of damage but the symptom (TV is very difficult to turn on - but when it does turn on it stays on) is indicative of cap failure and I also know that all the caps that are on this board are generic garbage (If it helps, the main caps are "JIF", and there are FDAI, JM, and "Peace" caps) and that many caps fail without bulging.
I am going to purchase all but the smallest caps because someone here suggested that they need not be replaced (Albeit they are the majority of the caps on the board), and I've already found whatever I could not find at my (relatively) local store on Digikey.
But I need help with two things:
1) This store's cap section was a mix of many junk brands like G-Luxon and other garbage but they also have Nichicons, Rubycons, and UCC (United Chemicon). Is this indicative of fake caps? The store seems to be owned by questionable people so I wouldn't put it past them to try and sell fake caps.
2) Most of the series of the UCCs and Nichicons that I bought seem to be older series that have now been replaced. I've confirmed on their website that these series did exist and they even have reference charts to show what they have been replaced with. So again, does the fact that they are selling older series prove that they're fakes and also if they are legitimate, will these series perform well?
Here is what I bought:
1) Nippon Chemicon 200v 680uF - (M) CF (Snap In)
2) UCC 35v 470uF - "KME" 55(7) Brown/White
3) UCC 50v 470uF - "SME" 2(k) 3B Black/White
4) Nichicon 35v 100uF - KL(M) H0310 Orange/Black (Won't use these, they're too fat and from what I can gather, they're meant for audio. But they look the coolest of all by far)
5) Nichicon 25v 47uF - PV(M) A9611 Brown/White
6) Panasonic 250v 10uF - Color on these is Blue/White and the only unique marker I can see is: "81IIBA" and if it helps the temperature is 85c.
I will try to get pics posted later today. All the bungs on these look like ones you'd find on legit ones but the indentations on the metal vents are shallow which I heard is indicative of fake caps. I want to be sure they're adequate before I place the order with Digikey.
Also, there are two caps on the motherboard that I wonder if they need replacing. They're strange looking ones that are wrapped in black plastic and they're skinny in the middle and fat at the top and bottom. One is labeled at the top "044 NJ" and the other "601 NJ". What are these?
Thanks.
