    bad power supply cap ?

    I have a LG flatscreen tv model 20ls7d-ub. It's got 2 bad caps. one of the caps that's bad is a Samxon 680uf 25v 105°C8 V1A. What does the V1A mean?? What can I cross it out with? The other bad cap is the same value but GF(M)? Thanks in advance!

    Welcome, OrderOfSolve!

    Samxon GF series have been known to go bad after some use; so I recommend replacing all of the Samxon GF Series units with Chemi-Con KY Series.
    The V1A appears to be a date code.
    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.

      Or Nichicon HE, or Rubycon YXG. All have the same specs as Chemi-con KY.
      I love putting bad caps and flat batteries in fire and watching them explode!!

      No wonder it doesn't work! You installed the jumper wires backwards

        Just ordered several Chemi-con caps from Mouser.com. Thanks for your help! I'll get back with the results! Thanks again!
