    HP flatscreen HPvs17x

    I have an HP 17v flatpanel monitor. I bought a monitor from an auction and at first nothing, so I let it stay plugged in and it finally I started getting a blinking blue power light. Thats it.
    I looked up that symptom and determined it was bad caps. I opened up the case and saw right away 2 caps that needed replacing. Please review the included picture. I can see they are 10v Electrolytic 1000MFD caps with the words KF105c and P628 Vent on the side. Please help. If you need a better picture let me know and I can post.

    It looks like you've already diagnosed the problem -- what did you want help with? If it's help selecting replacements, post a catalog of all of your caps (yes, ALL) with the following information: make, model, uF, Volts, diameter, height, series (2 or 3 characters) and put your location in your profile. Alternately, there are a few topics in the Frequently Asked Questions forum that provides lots of great information to start with (what to buy, where to buy, what brand caps to avoid, etc.).

      The cap ordering instructions that I normally suggest people use come from PlainBill. Ironically, the URL that I cut & paste is for this HP vs17x.

        Holy Smokes.. Thanks I will look over the ordering instructions and read through the FAQ.
        I will come back and give a catalog of the caps I see.
        Thanks in advance.

          Ok, I went in and found the caps but I don't have sizes. I couldn't find anything to measure with.

          I only see two of them buldging, but I assume if they are marked bad they will all soon go, once I fire it up and start using it.

            The 2 bulging are definitely bad. Others may be equally bad, but not bulging, and some may be good.

            You could replace just the obviously bad, or buy some test gear and test, and replace all the bad, or just replace them all.

            Most of us here would agree to replace them all except the big one.
            Even the good ones may eventually fail since they're all probably the same age and from the same couple of manufacturers.
            Since you have it open, you've done the hard work (I find opening up the monitor the hardest part) And...caps are cheap

                    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."

                    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,...

                    Gigabyte GA-6OXT :: caps question
                    by Foetuss
                    Good evening

                    I recently aquired a rev 1.1 Gigabyte 60XT, and was suprised of the amount of leaking caps for a motherboard of the P3 era. Especially the way the 330µf caps seems like the housing discolored even.
                    Now, there are some 3300µF 6.3V KZG series around the CPU. Would it be OK to replace them with something like EEUFR1A332 ? (Panasonic FR 3300µF 10V). Or was this board designed around very low ESR caps?

                    But I was also suprised about the bigger boys, which are 330µF 25V.
                    Could it be they used 25V caps because they were cheaper / available at that time?...
