    need advise

    I have a 50 inch plasma vizzo vp50hdtv10a. Its 5 years old and new had a problem until the other day. Went to turn it on and the screen had a plaid look to it so I turned it off and back on. When I turned it on the screen was blank but had sound and I could hear some crackling noise and smelt something burning (electrical).I couldn't find anything burnt on the boards so I figured it was a capacitor
    Took it apart and replaced 10 capacitors and checked all the fuses restarted it and the same thing.

    Should I look into it deeper or just junk it because I can but a similar tv new for $500. I would love to try to fix it but I have so many projects going on right now I wonder if its worth it. Does it sound like an easy fix?

    Thanks in advance

          My laptop HP 245 AMD 14-FP5-6L -GDDR5X2 has a battery charging circuit error:

          Xbox series x advise
          by Rickkap
          Hi

          I was hoping someone could give me some advise. A friend dropped off an Xbox Series X for repairβ€”normally not something I deal with, but I'm helping out as a favour.

          Currently, the console powers on with a beep and then immediately powers off. On closer inspection, the HDMI port clearly needs replacing, and there's significant liquid damage/ missing components.

          Before I go down the rabbit hole of sourcing a donor board and replacing damaged components, I wanted to ask: based on the area I've marked in the photo, do you think this could be what's causing...

          Thinkpad W541 Works from the mains and charges the battery only when it is turned off
          by bykanovm
          Lenovo Thinkpad W541 Wistron LKM-1 WS MB 12291-2 Works from the network and charges the battery only when it is turned off.
          If you press the power button, the laptop turns on and works from the battery, but does not take power from the power supply.
          If you boot into Windows and close the lid while working, thereby putting the laptop into sleep mode, the laptop begins to charge the battery.
          even checked it this way: I bring a neodymium magnet to the Hall sensor during operation - the screen goes out and the battery starts charging.
          Also, the laptop does not turn on without...

          AHL50/ ABL52 LA-C701P Rev:1.0 Turns on but turned off after few seconds
          by Zilicon
          Hearty greetings to everyone, trust you all are doing excellently well.

          Please, I have the above problem, the laptop turned on after the switch was activated but it will turns off in less than 2 seconds.

          The power stables in very rare case. Once it was stabled, everything works fine.

          Once the power switched is pressed, 5V and 3V were present.

          The things i have done:

          1. I have check for shorts on the board, but nothing. The board is short free

          2. Not a power switch problem, it behaves the same without the switch ...
