Not sure if this is the right place or if there is another location in the forum this should go. But here goes.
I have a Klipsch ipod speaker unit that a friend asked me to look at. It would play for about 5 to 10min and then "shut off". Once it shut off it would not play again for at least an hour.
I opened up the unit (took a LONG time to do that) and i found what i think the problem is. Its either the cap or the inductor (see enclosed pic). There is the "gunk" which looked like it ozzed from either the cap or the inductor.
Any ideas from the pic which its from?
Also, the caps are "surface mount" caps ..........how to remove the caps to measure?
The inductors are the black looking things with the "150" on top. Any idea what inductors are these.......ie...if i wanted to replace them what do i replace them with.
