    cap juice+high voltage=fire

    this is a monitor from a swi prototrak .
    2 caps spilled their guts and the juice ran down under the flyback.
    these units are well sealed when the mounting arm bolts are in.still stunk up the customers van and i could smell it when i came in.it was still closed up and it stunk up the store and warehouse!

      How old is it, and what are the brands of electrolytic capacitors?
      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.

          Al El cap electrolyte is very conductive.

              the worst leaker was a teapo.
              the rest are eci?
              these were made in 86 and run 24/7 in a sealed up hot box so its not if but when they will die.
              i get a ton of these units in for total rebuild.machine shops run them till the smoke comes out.

                  TV Model: Hitachi 40HYC42
                  Power Supply: 17IPS71
                  MainBoard: 17MB95M
                  Panel: VES400UNDS-2D-NO3

                  When the set came in it was dead. Fuse was open primary side and the power mosfet was shorted. So I ordered a new power supply. Now it turns on, only displays "Hitachi" and then power off red and blue led flashing.

                  I had to modify the 0ohm resistors in the led backlight of the new PS like the original power supply.
                  Is there any variants on 17IPS71 power supply's?

                  Lenovo S6000 won't turn on. Data recovery needed.

                  Hello,

                  Here I have the mentioned tablet with motherboard s6000-mb-h401. The tablet won't turn on, no display, charging normally. I manage to connect to UART port and got this output when I try to start it:

                  Code:
                  [PWRAP] pwrap_init_preloader
[PWRAP] pwrap_init
[PWRAP] _pwrap_init_sidly [Read Test] pass,SIDLY=0 rdata=5AA5
[PWRAP] _pwrap_init_sidly [Read Test] pass,SIDLY=1 rdata=5AA5
[PWRAP] _pwrap_init_sidly [Read Test] pass,SIDLY=2 rdata=5AA5
[PWRAP] _pwrap_init_sidly [Read Test] pass,SIDLY=3 rdata=5AA5

                  Macbook Air A1370 820-3024 CPU init and VCore missing
                  by EdwardGeo
                  All voltages are okay, even a thunderbolt boost is reacting on power request by cortex. Spi rom is read by pch, All_system_is_okay (mean the signal 3.3v by smc is present). But CPU won't request voltage from Max buck converter to power up VCore voltages to start the CPU. CPU and pch is getting warm. So there is no SVID and SVCLK data exchange. A lot of info on the web declare the TON signal failure on 2 pin of Max controller, and it has 90.2K, the voltage drop on power on, down to 0.35v. whrlen the system is off, then voltage on pin 2 is 8.4 volts.

                  Btw forgot to say, all voltages...

                  Aya A39FHD3901/2 - Vestel 17MB82 mainboard - LED blinking
                  by KevinWysocki
                  Hi there,

                  My mother in law gave me an Aya TV, to take a look if I could do something to repair it.

                  At startup, LED constantly blinks and no image is shown (even if I light the screen, broken backlight is not the problem), also +12V power rail is fine.

                  After some research, it seems that NOR flash often fails on this mainboard, I have found the procedure to force flash upgrading with a USB key connected to mainboard USB port, pressing "OK" button on the remote and plugging the TV power cord.

                  Flash upgrade didn't seem to work,...
