Hi,
This is my first post so please educate me if I'm not specifying the capacitors correctly and if my pictures aren't the best quality. The main question I have is whether I should replace the (8) Rubicon 22uF 25V YK capacitors on my motherboard? These capacitor aren't bulging, but they are leaning. I haven't see any threads about the need to replace these capacitors; other than, that leaning capacitors should be replaced. See the attached pictures. More information about my computer is below.
I have a Dell Dimension 8400, Rev. A00, E210882, that doesn't boot. Hitting the power button doesn't do anything. The light in the power button doesn't light; none of the diagnostic lights are on; it acts like it's not getting power. However, I checked the voltages from the power supply and they are within specs and the green led light on the motherboard is on.
Inspecting the motherboard shows bulging caps on the (5) Nichicon 1000uF 10V HN(M) 105C and 2200uF 6.3V KZJ 105C. The Nichicon 2200uF 10V H0448 105C doesn't have a bulging cap but I'm replacing it anyway based upon the advice from several threads. My replacements are shown below.
So my question is should I replace the (8) Rubicon 22uF 25V YK? If so with Samxon 22uF 25v 5mm GK Ultra Low ESR https://www.badcaps.net/store/product_info.php?products_id=102?
Thanks,
