I have a 37" RCA LCD that has been dead in my basement for the last couple years. I had planned on taking it for repair but then a loss of employment caused me to put it off and I pretty much forgot about it until recently.
It won't power on, the power led just blinks red in a 5 blink error code.
I mentioned this to a co-worker the other day and he suggested checking the boards for swollen capacitors, as he'd repaired a few computer monitors this way.
So I did this today. I found 7 bad caps on the board that the ac cord plugs into. All of them had domed tops, though none had broken open or were leaking. This may or may not be the problem, but since the tv has been sitting for so long, I figured it would be fun to see if I could get it working again. I removed them.
Which brings me to my question. Sorry for the preamble.. heh.
I found Badcaps store through a search, but I can't seem to figure out what would be good replacements for what I removed.
These are the markings visible on the 3 different caps (measurements done by me):
Samxon 12.5mm x 25 mm (2 ea.)
1000uF 35v
105 C8
W3A
GD(M)
CapXon 10mm x 16mm (3 ea.)
1000uF 16v
LZ 105c
C723 Vent
CapXon 8mm x 16.5mm (2 ea.)
1000uF 10v
LZ 105c
C724 Vent
Does anyone have any recommendations for replacement caps for these bad ones? I've been trying to find spec. sheets for these caps but haven't had any luck. To be honest I'm not even sure what series these caps are or how to find them.
