    Technics SU-V9 recap

    Hello,

    My Technics SU-V9 would run perfectly then when i used it again the relay would not kick in, replaced the thyristors, and noticed one of two of the caps had green fungus on one of their legs.

    pre drive board has a few caps as does the main board

    Ive used Nichicon PW, Wima for values under 1uf, and Panasonic SU for the one bi-polar? maybe i should have used Nichicon EP?

    Pre drive board not sure, the VCC/GND caps. I am thinking low esr over Audiograde caps but fear to change the sound. The V9 was sounding a bit on the bright side so maybe something was wrong with it

    The large main capacitors are 18000uf 56v and look fine and flat, not sure to change them or not. If so maybe CDE 380LX or UCC SHM or KMH?




    pre drive board i had to seperate the image as it was long



    thank you
    Sam

    Yep, these caps are toasted. They leaked all over the place. You have to get that cap juice off the board, so clean that really good. In which position were those caps in? BTW, if I'd had that for repair, I'd be doing a full recap

      Thank you Capleaker for the reply

      Yes they are on the main board, the top one is the V9, the pre drive is fine the caps but i would expect since i am doing the mainboard have to see what to use there?

      mainboard mix of PW and FR ( maybe should have gone all PW and Wima) Main caps look nice and flat not sure if they have any issues



      pre drive board caps fine here going by my eye. Again if I did the main had some bad caps, maybe is wise a full recap , very few caps with the V9

        Get few out of the board and measure them.. if they read good, leave them ( at lease this is what I'd do ). Pay more attention to caps from the power supply circuits and near to heatsinks.

          Thanks Madan1
          The pre-drive board the topside faces the heatsink
          recap power ciricuit with FR. and PW. Not sure if I should have it all PW

          image from the net from the front of the V9, the pre drive board faces the heatsink, space between cap top and heatsink would be about 1cm - 2cm

            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."

            HannStar Hanns-G HC194d LCD monitor repair
            by momaka
            Normally, I never post repairs this quick after I do them, because… I am usually very slow. But today, I’m making an exception here. Why? No idea. Perhaps only because the repair details are still “fresh” in my head… which is ironic, given this is a 16 year old monitor that hardly anyone will care about today. It is new to me, though. I picked it up last November from someone on my local Craigslist. It wasn’t very close to where I live, but was close to a family friend that I had to go visit anyways. So after watching the posting on Craigslist for a few weeks and seeing it getting...

            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...

            GeForce 6800GT recap, need help identifying caps and finding replacements
            by fl0w
            Hi,

            I just noticed that my Asus V9999GT (GeForce 6800 GT) had some swelling capacitors. I managed to identify the brown ones, which are Nippon Chemi-Con KZG series, 6.3V 820µF, which I plan to replace with this.
            But for the yellow ones, I guess these are Fujitsu caps, without being able to identify which series... A picture of the video card is attached to the topic.

            I need to replace:
            • 2x 2.5V 1500µF => I plan to use this
            • 2x 16V 330µF=> I plan to use this
            • 1x 6.3V 680µF=> I plan to use this
            Am I correct with the cap choices?

            Thanks for...
