    Need some help now that I screwed the pooch!!!!

    Ok the deal is this I got a free 42" toshiba rear projection TV with the Hyper Module(scan converter) problem. Thought I could fix it and would have by now if I had'nt made the mistake of pulling a solder pad off the board. Any way I replace the 11 10uf 16v caps couldnt find the little ones that are on the board so I replaced with wire legged caps. Plugged in set look like it was going to work image fluctuated TV shut off and I noticed smoke comming from the module I quickly unpluged it heard what I thought was the TV speakers but that sound could have been a cap on power board blowing. Well looking at the board there's either what is called a transistor or a power regulator that got fried and damaged the board itself. My question is could the wrong caps have caused the surge? Tv operated before this Module work but now the power light just blinks. In addition to help with this question can anyone point me to where the power short might be? I am currently replacing legged caps with identical ones I believe are rated the same.

      Your expectations for an answer in less than 3 hours are unrealistic.

      It doesn't help that you posted this TV question in the FAQ section. Using a descriptive title of your problem would also help.

          Identifying a 3-legged device
          by Nevillet
          Hi All,

          I have a small Sony CD player (CMT-X3CD) where the PSU board has died but i'm having trouble identifining a fried 3 legged component labled as Q501 on the schematic. The marking on the device itself is terrible and all I can decifer is:
          25216
          SMK

          Can anyone suggest what it can be replaced with?

          I've attached the service manual and the PSU board can be found on page 36/7.

          Many thanks.

          Screwed onto the board. Thoughts?
          by moheat
          Hardware Details - Samsung LC24FG70FQWXXL (C24FG70​) Monitor with the board model (BN91-18169A) perhaps aka (BN41-02548A)

          While wall mounting, I mistakenly picked a screw 0.5cm too big than the clearance and damaged the trace and one of the part (a capacitor, I think) on the board. Images attached.

          Is this repairable or will I just have to get the entire board replaced? Please guide about this....

          Need help identifying a 14 legged chip with no marking
          by rddube
          Hello everyone,

          I need help trying to diagnose the problem with this little board which controls the activation of a motor for a mini Liion powered chopping apparatus. The motor is rated 7.4 volts and should start when you power the power switch twice, but I only get a led flashing.

          The chip I think may be at fault is the one pointed by the yellow arrow, but there no markings on it at all, nothing!

          Any help would be appreciated. Many thanks!...

          Dell G3 3579 BIOS chip ID

          Hello,

          I bought a Dell G3 3579 eBay. The fault was not mentioned and it did not come with charger. Before trying to power off battery, I did some basic checks on the coils (in resistance mode) to see if there was any short. None were reading short. Decided to power the board to see if anything happened. The keyboard backlight came on. About 5 seconds later, the fans begin spinning at max speed. The white LED comes on at this time, stays solid for a bit and goes off. Fans continue to spin at max. Display is black (no backlight). If I hold down power button, board goes off. I did give...

          Please help to identify the components on Surface Laptop GO3, model 2013, i5-1230U
          by User2025
          Hi,

          I am working on a Surface Laptop GO 3, which is the new release 2024 with a i5-1230U processor. Originally, it had a 256GB SSD, then the owner attempted to upgrade it to 1TB SSD by himself. "Surprisingly", it did not boot afterwards, then changed back to the original SSD, did not boot either.

          It turned out to be that just a couple of components had been knocked off when the owner was trying to get off the SSD cover with his beloved screw driver.

          I do not have another board of same model. Although I have a Laptop Go 2, the layout of that bit...
