    This Viewsonic VA2026W needed one capacitor replaced

    Got it from Freecycle with power and brightness issues when turned on. My Google-fu didn't turn up a specific solution, so I'll post one here to document what I've done.

    I replaced one bulging Samxon capacitor at 1000uF. If it wasn't specified for 10V, then it was specified for 16V.

    I hope this fix will last, but I'm ready to replace more capacitors, too.

      Caps nearby heatsinks have a hard life. Anyway, harder than those in cool well-ventilated spaces.
      If you want to keep the device for a long time, it may worth recapping some other caps like the biggest one.

          With the exception of the large 450V cap, replace ALL the other small caps with low-esr caps such as Panasonic FR, FM or FC series caps.

              Ops, sorry, not the biggest one filtering HV.

                  Dell Latitude 5310 2 in 1 Laptop does not power on, shorted capacitor replaced but not solved
                  by im_trying
                  Laptop does not power on but has a fix white light on power button, when connected to power.

                  I found, while trying to diagnose, a hot spot in the motherboard and found it to be a shorted capacitor (see photo below) on the 2.5v (2D5V_S3 on schematics). After replacing it with one from a donor board, still, the board does not turn on...

                  The usb-c meter reads upon connection 20.1v and 0.00a, with some occasional flashes to 0.03amps. After 10/15 seconds circa, it goes to 5.2v and draws an almost constant 0.07amps. (same behaviour as before)
                  To my fingers, nothing seems...

                  Asus FA507R no power, capacitor needed
                  by veedo
                  Hello
                  I've got an Asus laptop which received with no power, so I found that one capacitor been damaged. I don't have schematics for that board which is DANJMMB11A0 REV:A
                  Without that caps laptop is turning on fine so problem more likely is sorted but I would like to put back the correct one as it should be.
                  If any way could help with sorting out specification somehow, I just know that my meter shows 11,2uF but is it 50V or 10V ?? or any others.
                  See attached photo off the capacitor, maybe someone have same motherboard and can check it for me please.

                  RTX 3080 FE Identifying capacitor
                  by Prolog
                  Hi people, I hope this is the correct spot to post this, I'm new to the forum.

                  I have an RTX 3080 Founders Edition which has a burnt up capacitor (it was in parallel with another capacitor which appears damaged too), so I am hoping to be able to identify the capacitor values and order replacements.

                  I hope these photos make it clear which component I am referring to:
                  (yes, the soldering is a bit botched from removing the blown one, I know)

                  I have found the board schematic (attached), but there does not seem to be a boardview available. I have never...

                  How can I test non-polarized capacitor?
                  by chth96
                  I desoldered samwha NF capacitor(50v 5.6uf) from PCB circuit of 29inch CRT TV which have symptoms of no display after I heard sound of inrush of current to TV whenever I switch on this television.
                  I measured ESR value of this non-polarized capacitor(samwha NF capacitor 50v 5.6uf) by means of MESR-100 ESR meter and It displayed 0.3 ohm

                  And When I measured its capacitance with digital multimeter and LCR-T4 Mega328 meter, It displayed 10uf from DMM and 8uf from LCR-T4 meter.
                  I found catalogue of samwha capacitor(samwha-catalogue_3.pdf file), which is attached to this thread,...

                  Sony PS4 ADP400DR - help needed figuring out shorted pads under capacitor C 31
                  by supravit2000
                  Hi!

                  A friend of mine gave me a dead PS5 to look at. I am totally inexperienced, but when a damage is simple (i.e. failed DAP41 on PS4s, etc.), when replacing just the IC and the other very common failing parts of these consoles, problem is fixed. So I checked the voltage of the PSU - none was present. Model is ADP 400DR. I have a bunch of spare parts around, so first thing I did was to replace the IC DAP 053 (they seem quite expensive, so I put a replacement unit - TEA2016AAT. When plugged to the power outlet, 12V did come present.
                  So I reassembled the PS5 and pressed the power...
