    Vizio VW42LFHDTV10.4 ?

    hello,
    One morning my tv had no video ,after paying vizio tech dude to come I got diagnosis that tv inverter boards have bad caps ,on one which I took the cover off you can see oooze coming out of the cap itself.
    The part is marked with tag lg phillipsco lc420wu5(slave) although I suspect master is same board,I believeve bad cap is marked sc43
    bar code reads 8ajzp7811384.
    I am not much of a electronics wizard but know someone who could solder in just the caps or I would replace the boards if it was cheap enough,
    Help me please ,I have been watching my 27 inch tv for weeks now ,any further info needed I would try to provide ,the caps? are blue looking things marked VOA Pet ,Does this make sense can you help me fing caps only ,master and slave boards or make an offer on the screen for parts in northern pa .or thould I just take this out and put about 6 12 ga shotgun shells thru it ,
    I am Bob my handle is chocolate 123 ,am I in the right forum????

      No. The NRA hangs out in the 'dumb macho' forums. We prefer 'gents with brains' here.

      Sorry about that. I have a profound lack of respect for those who feel problems are best solved with a shotgun.

      On the chance that was your attempt at humor, the TV is repairable. The least expensive approach would be to order the proper caps and have your friend install them. I believe the full inverter is also available. Google is your friend for that.

      If you want help here, pictures would give us more information. Note the links in my signature for instructions. The description you gave of the caps would indicate the capacity and voltage is on the other side of the cap.

      For a number of reasons, both health and personal, I will no longer be active on this board. Any PMs asking for assistance will be ignored.

      Never be afraid to try something new. Remember, amateurs built the ark. Professionals built the Titanic.

          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).

          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."
          ...

          Vizio e601i-A3 - Has Sound and Display, But No Backlight - Bad Power Supply Board or Bad LED Bulbs ?
          by Tynan Dill
          I was given this TV from my great uncle. He said it just wouldn't turn on one day out of nowhere, replaced the TV, and gave it to me to possibly fix and use for myself.

          Upon bringing it home and plugging it up, it showed a standby light.

          I powered it on and without a flashlight, the display showed the "V" but the lighting is very dim, but visible.

          The screen seems to blackout and stay black, but with a flashlight I can see the display.

          With my Playstation 4 connected via HDMI, and running a game I can hear sound.

          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?...
