    uh oh I messed up.

    I got two caps with the wrong spacing. They are 7.50mm, holes are 5mm.

    Is there any issues if use them?

    Re: uh oh I messed up.

    They'll just sit off the PCB a little. If it's a single sided board and trace path allows, I would think about drilling a new hole 2.5mm further away, but I've done it before so the practice experience, right sized bits, and a drill press are at my disposal. Better to try these things on worthless PCBs before doing it on valuable ones.

      good I can live with them sitting off a bit, they are 1.49 each. I could order the correct ones but I'll never use the ones I have now.

        well that sucks, I still have the same problem, but if I unplug the inverter board the TV set stays on.


        Must be a bad transformer or CCFL.

        It's got 7 bulbs and 7 transformers so one of the two.

          It would be easier if you consolidated all issues about a particular repair to the same topic in the (TV?) repair subforum. Not enough info to know exactly what you're facing, presumably a 32" TV that shuts off or won't turn on?

          Initial guess w/o seeing pics or schematic is a shorted transistor, CCFL tubes are just full of gas and if they fail it's not a short circuit... but they're probably plugged into sockets right? So they can be unplugged.

            I did have a topic, no one answered and that was 3 weeks ago.

            When I plug it in, it works for 2-5 seconds, I see the Phillips logo on the screen then unit goes dead. But if I remove the inverter from the equation the set stays on. So that means something is wrong with the inverter or it's CCFL lamps.

              Bad lamps get dim or won't light, not excess current that shuts down the TV (not the problem). I don't even see pics of the inverter board. This is far too little info and far too fragmented. All needs presented at once in same place at same time or else people get disinterested, probably why you didn't get replies on the previous topic, there wasn't enough info to solve the problem or make suggestions.

                I shall have pictures of the inverter board up in a moment.

                  Hi, trying to troubleshoot some problems with this laptop I just finished repairing which had power issues (Burnt Buck converter - SY8883DFC shorted to ground).

                  After repairing the above issue, I realized the following remaining problem,
                  Sound only comes from bottom speakers, top palmrest speakers don't work. Neither does the headphone jack (static/buzzing).
                  The computer recognizes headphones are connected and displays a popup in windows
                  Sometimes, the computer will boot up and the sound will be working fine. However, if I run intensive programs and the computer...

                  Lenovo IdeaPad Gaming 3 15ACH - Ideapad 3 well known solder joint issues
                  by Nagyesz
                  I have a Lenovo IdeaPad Gaming 3 15ACH, which has started exhibiting the well-known issues of the Lenovo IdeaPad 3.

                  All stress tests run perfectly, and there are no performance issues. However, the solder joints are almost certainly starting to fail. If the top two screws on the back are not screwed in, moving the screen results in a BSOD or, in some cases, a slight artifact and freeze. This is a 2023 notebook..

                  How can I extend its lifespan? Could reflow help?

                  It has ryzen 5 5500h, rtx 2050, no soldered ram.

                  Example of the artifacts:

                  Asus Rog strix g15 g513ih hn0865 and it's having display issues while running on igpu
                  by Skgod
                  Hey I am having Asus Rog strix g15 g513ih hn0865 and it's having display issues while running on igpu. Works fine when I open any game or whatsapp windows application. The issues are :
                  Black screen, freeze
                  The weird thing is that when as long as the laptop is running on igpu the problem keeps happening. But as soon as I open any game or whatsapp windows application, the laptop works completely fine.
                  When the screen freeze or black screen I used to move the display lid up and down and it usually works like that.
                  So can anyone tell me what would be the possible cause?...

                  A2141 (2019 16" MB Pro) Strange macOS install issues. NAND? WIFI? FIRMWARE?
                  by duwane
                  Hi All.

                  Sorry ahead of time for the text wall. This is a strange problem and I have tried to explain it as best I can. I realise this is a hardware forum (mostly), but I am still not sure if this is even a hardware fault! I am hoping that someone more knowledgeable than me in the area of understanding installation logs, or someone that has had a similar issue in the past may have some ideas of what might be causing this.

                  The issue:
                  Unable to do a clean install of any macOS versions supported for this model, even after fully erasing and formatting the internal SSD,...
