    maytag 8507p240-60 oven control

    You know, I don't go out searching for the bad caps... they just find me.

    Oven has acted semi strangely once or twice a year for a while. It's only 3 years old though. I didn't think much of it until almost all the segments on the display lit up and the oven was unusable. Pulled the control unit, visual inspection yielded no obvious signs. Replaced all the caps anyway, works great now.

    Old caps, 33uf 16v.


    Nichicon polymer caps. Overkill? Of course! Hoping they can take the heat better though. There were two other caps on the other board, they were replaced too.


    Working again!

      Great repair job.
      It can get a bit hot inside, even when there is separation between heat sources.
      My first choice in quality Japanese electrolytics is Nippon Chemi-Con, which has been in business since 1931... the quality of electronics is dependent on the quality of the electrolytics.

          clearchris - any chance you can offer an update on your oven repair? I've got the same model seemingly doing what you describe, so I'm going to give my first component repair a whirl. Are these suitable capacitors?

              no, those caps you linked are surface-mount.
              the board clearly uses caps with leads on them.

                  Seasonic B12 BC-550 – barely 2 years old and with BAD CAPS already!
                  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).

                  https://www.badcaps.net/filedata/fetch?id=3591772

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

                  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."
                  ...

                  Need Help Identifying This DIODE mounted on a Frigidaire oven control PN:316131600
                  by DennisH
                  This diode is mounted on a Frigidaire electronic oven control PN:316131600. This diode runs hot enough that the PCB is showing slight burn marks (black soot looking area on PCB above the diode). It looks to me to be coming from the body of the diode.

                  The oven control is 22 years old and still works, but I can't get a new replacement, so I'm doing preventative maintenance and replacing a few parts on it that I think could fail - and this is one of them.

                  Can any of you identify this diode (see pic) and suggest a replacement that can handle more heat - or if not, can...

                  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...

                  Help with switching power supply caps
                  by captain150
                  I'm trying to repair two old VCRs, they both have bad caps. One has leaky ones, the other would barely run until I subbed in some caps from another power supply I had laying around (though they are the wrong values). This vcr works for an hour or two, but then the power supply starts whining and the picture gets lines in it. I didn't replace all the secondary caps, so another voltage might still be problematic, or the values I used are too far off.
                  I've been on mouser and digikey but the options are a bit overwhelming. I just need some new ones that will work. They don't need to be top quality,...
