    Bush LCD37TV016HD Rant

    I just fixed this TV. Two bad CapXon 1000u 10V (replaced with Panasonic FC) and one 1000u 35V (not yet replaced will do shortly.) Before, it would not power on - now it will power on fine with no issues.

    The power supply is a pretty good layout, apart from a few things. One thing is the fact that several electrolytic capacitors have been placed under the heatsink. That will quickly kill the capacitors. That's bad, but anyway... After choosing a power supply with heatsinks pointing vertically, to allow for confection cooling, they then place the power supply in a cage, preventing proper ventilation!!

    The power supply is full of CapXon, we all know about them...

    Whoever OEM'd this for Bush were complete incompetent idiots.

    Okay, I just fixed this TV completely. New 1000u/35V Chemicon KY.

    Anyway, the design of this thing really takes the biscuit (to put it politely.) It turns out all the electronics slide out in a tray and a connector, much like a parallel LPT port, connects to the rest of the chassis.

    The TV worked great for a while, but it began to give problems. It wasn't doing anything - I thought I had broken something. No, all I had done was disconnect the connector just slightly. I only discovered this after I pushed the tray in slightly, and the TV worked perfectly.

    Assembled it and the connector is actually pushed in by the case itself. WTF???

    Now it works.

    Another TV saved from the dump.
