    Need Help Replacing Capacitors - Viewsonic VX2245wm

    Hello - this is my first time replacing caps and I'm wondering if there's an easy way to know where to solder on the back of the board? I don't see the matching numbers on the back as what's on the front next to the caps.

    DAC-19M009

    I'll take some pictures if that helps at all...

    Thanks in advance!!

      Some boards have it marked on the back others don't.

      If you are having problems do what I call spatial mapping, get a bright strong flashlight and shine it directly down on the cap that you want to change. Then look at it from the backside and mark which solder joints they are.

          thanks...I tried earlier to take off one of the caps using the soldering iron, but it's not doing barely anything to melt it. maybe i have the wrong tool. What should I be using? I have a 30watt with like a thin tip.

                  Replacing capacitors on a 12v 5000w Pure Sine Inverter .
                  by Tyran
                  Greetings folks. I darn near blew the heck out of my 12V inverter the other day by connecting it to a 24V battery source. :poof . Well lesson learned...... or maybe not . But in the meantime I have 4 Capacitors that need immediate replacing each rated at 16V 3300uf and 105deg. I saw a break down review You Tube video where the host suggested that the 35V Capacitors were a better choice for manufacturers to use. Another video suggested that replacing capacitors of higher Voltage is fine but that the 3300uf rating should be kept the same. Can someone please clarify what the functional benefits...

                  Help with replacing Capacitors on Altec Lansing ATP 3
                  by yuzupatogik
                  Hello,
                  I have this old (2004?) Altec Lansing ATP3 and i would like to replace the capacitors. I have identified 34 out of the 36 of them as Samxon GR of various capacities and voltages.

                  I can't find datasheets for the Samxon in any of the following variants:

                  10000uF 25 v - this one i really want to replace because i suspect it is what causes a dull hum regardless of the volume knob position or if the source is plugged in. I am eyeballing the Rubycon 25PK10000MEFCGC18X35.5 for this purpose. So if i pay a 10x the price part for shipping i might as well go ahead and...

                  Vizio M60-C3 Replacing 1000uF 16V with 1000uF 35V capacitors?
                  by frannyjunk
                  Hi, my Vizio M60-C3 does not power on. No lights whatsoever. Upon opening up the TV, the power supply board has 4 bulging capacitors. Each is 1000uF 16V. I have read that one can use capacitors of the same uF and higher voltage rating, but is 1000uF 35V capacitor too high of a voltage rating? My local shop only has these higher voltage capacitors so would rather just buy the 35V variety if it is OK to use them.

                  Any thoughts if OK to use these higher voltage capacitors?

                  After updating motherboard capacitors, what to do next (Asrock K7VT2, SOLTEK SL-75FRN2L)
                  by dragon3x
                  Hi, I have some 32 bits computer motherboards that need repair, as they fail to
                  power on.

                  Here are some examples :

                  (N.B. "capacitors" indicated here are electrolytic capacitors located in the onboard
                  switching supply area).
                  (N.B. #2 : I could not find a 3300 microF aluminum-polymer with a higher voltage
                  than 6.3 V.)

                  1 - Motherboard #1 : this is an Asrock K7VT2 (socket A) that still works well. To put it on test
                  I replaced capacitors with aluminum-polymer.
                  3300 microF/6.3 V. x 4 replaced by 3300 microF/6.3 V. (KYOCERA...

                  AA and AAA battery charger capacitors?
                  by slybunda
                  hey all, iv got my favourite battery charger here which iv had for many years probably 15 years now or maybe even more. it still works good but thought id open it up to clean the dust out of it, lots of dust inside but now its clean and noticed 4 capacitors inside it and wondered if i should replace them.
                  it has inside:
                  2 x 47uf 16v caps 105c branded as Su'scon (lol sounds sus to me)
                  2 x 470uf 16v LZ105c branded as G.Luxon

                  not heard of these brands are they any good?

                  iv attached photos of the charger and the board inside for an idea on the type of...
