Hi, we have a number of Streamax X5-E0804 vehicle CCTV recorders that are dead - they all have a power supply PCB with 5 10F 2.7v super capacitors which have leaked and buckled, but replacing them doesn't fix the fault. Digging deeper it seems that there short circuit somewhere, but so far I have been unable to locate the faulty component. its a long shot but has anyone come across these DVR's or better still have a schematic?

thats very clean - anoyingly.
it looks like you struggled slightly with the new soldering - big groundplane or something.
check the new caps arent shorted,
then see if they are in parallel - hopefully they are because it simplifies things.
and see what they connect to - incase they used a resistor as a fuse.

I see on the back side MLCC caps that are in parallel. It’s going to be a pain to find the short, but if it ends up being in the parallel MLCC grouped.capacitor, exchange the whole group and not just one. Also measure these MLCC while taken out on the Ohms scale and you can find out which ones are gonna short next,
I am not saying the problem is this, but could be. I suggest you find out on where the short is, then start depopulating. Oh yes… and don’t forget to take some pictures…Comment

by sam_sam_samWhen I originally started with my DVR recorder it had 4 individual switching switching power supply’s that were sh*t so I bought a 7 amp 12 volt switching power supply and modified the output plug and put a four output power supply cable to match the input power supply cable inputs
Which worked for over 14 years until a few days ago when the cameras went dark no picture anymore well it turns out now the switching power supply has stopped working altogether now so I have to troubleshoot what has happened to this power supply more later on today what I found

by double_DDHi all,
As the title suggests, how can I be sure that my EC chip is really dead?
I've recently gotten into this hobby of laptop repairs, and have successfully brought back to life a couple with some easy fixes, mostly shorted caps.
Now I'm working on HP Probook 455 G8, that had some "devil" run around on 3V line, burning a bunch of stuff. Luckily I have a dead 455G7 (for spare parts) so I managed to fix it (swapped burned parts) to a point that it will charge (both on barrel jack and usb-c), but it doesn't want to turn on. There is a 3V3 on a keyboard... -
by disorderhello guys,
i need help to repair a edm-033 ps2
history : as always hdmi port and usb ports destroyed after unplugged
after change them, ps5 dead too : 1 beep, no blue light. after inspection 1.8v power was shorted, and because of dead panasonic chip. after remove it : no short anymore
so i changed it
now i have got 5v stby,, 3.3v stby, 3.3v power, 1.8v power and no short on them
but the ps5 is dead again : 1 beep, near 10 seconds with power lines and then off, no blue light ...
i don't see any projection of liquid metal on pcb.

by BetonHi guys!
I searched for the term "dead short" in the forum but no specific thread came up however if I'm just blind and couldn't see the thread talking about this please forward me to that direction.
So my problem is I don't know how to find the source of a dead shorted voltage rail. Dead short = ~0 ohm resistance.
I have two VGAs (HD 4850 and HD 4870), both dead shorted to ground on the memory rail. I have the boardview file for the 4870 and the memory rail consists around ~7892346 capacitors...
I have a bench PSU and if I try to inject voltage the voltage... -
Hello everyone hope all doing well!
I have this PSU (GPS450-AA delta oem) around for like 4-5 years and I had it recapped early 2020 or 2021 with mostly UCC KY and Nichicon PW's. The bulk was and still is fine, the original Ltec's were bloated and empty. The previous issue was some major coil whine noise and at times random shutdowns when going idle. Today it started tripping the mains breaker and I think I have dead APFC mosfets (20N60C3). Right now upon checking I have the Q1 and Q3 FETs dead so far and I guess those are responsible for the PFC circuit. The only thing I care is If there...3 Photos - Loading...
