I'm stumped on what would be the issue with no power, lights & no clicks with a Hitachi L42A403. I tested fuse & caps look good. Thanks

Re: L42A403 Hitachi NO POWER - Fuse Good - Caps Good
Where it's listed 5V it measures 4.98. I didn't get anything on the 12 or 24 v this time. Maybe I did it wrong the last time.Comment

Re: L42A403 Hitachi NO POWER - Fuse Good - Caps Good
OK, the 12v, 24, and the PFC voltage booster are turn on by the main board, so lets see if we do have the PS_ON siganl and the PFC voltage is working or not first by checking the dc voltage right at the two legs of the big 450vdc caps laying on the side. When the TV is off, the voltage should be about 160~170vdc, and it should go up to about 370~390vdc when TV is switched on.
Please also post the voltage label of the connectors on the power supply board.Never stop learning

Re: L42A403 Hitachi NO POWER - Fuse Good - Caps Good
The 450v caps measured .2 on & off. Where are the measurements listed on the power board? Thank youComment

Re: L42A403 Hitachi NO POWER - Fuse Good - Caps Good
That cannot be the correct reading since the 5VDC power supply is also connected to those two caps, if those two caps has no voltage, you will not have the 5V either. What meter setting are you using?Never stop learning

I measured the 450v caps at .2 each on & off I attached a picture of the power board voltages.Attached FilesComment

Re: L42A403 Hitachi NO POWER - Fuse Good - Caps Good
Well I cannot see why you are not getting the 160vdc on the cap at all, from tracing the bottom side of the board, the 5VDC power supply is transformer is connected to those two cap positive legs of the two caps which it is using the power from after the AC is rectified by the bridge.Never stop learning

I found out the tv repair shop had this tv before I did.. He thinks it has a bad main board. Wouldn't there be something lit up? It's dead.. no power light etc..Comment

Correction.. I searched the board number the repair shop thought was bad & it came up with the power board.
Hope to see you on tonight BudmComment

Vizio e601i-A3 - Has Sound and Display, But No Backlight - Bad Power Supply Board or Bad LED Bulbs ?I was given this TV from my great uncle. He said it just wouldn't turn on one day out of nowhere, replaced the TV, and gave it to me to possibly fix and use for myself.
Upon bringing it home and plugging it up, it showed a standby light.
I powered it on and without a flashlight, the display showed the "V" but the lighting is very dim, but visible.
The screen seems to blackout and stay black, but with a flashlight I can see the display.
With my Playstation 4 connected via HDMI, and running a game I can hear sound.

Hello,
First, I am a complete noob with high voltage stuff. I'm learning, but I need help by someone looking over my shoulder.
I recently came into posession of a Heathkit IO-4205 5MHz Dual Trace Oscilloscope. The documentation is copyright 1978. I'm told it works.
I opened it up to check the caps before I applied power, and found the following black caps and wanted to know what they were. They are on the power supply board. I was able to read the name and model and came up with, "Nytronics 162J-1, 0.1uF, 20% tolerance, 2000VDC."

Hi all,
TL;DR - this laptop is driving me nuts with the oddball power-related behaviors. Appreciate any insight you can provide!
I'm experiencing a power issue on an Asus Probook P5440UF-XB74. Although I've worked with electronics and computers for decades, this is my first attempt at getting into motherboard-level component troubleshooting. Any help the community can provide is greatly appreciated!

I gotten a Carver CM-1090 amplifier from a friend who has kept it in storage for decades. Opened it up, thick layer of dust cumulated everywhere. Vacuumed it semi-cleaned, and blown off as much as possible the remaining dust. This is a 220V version.
On initial powered up with nothing connected - it works with all the lights and button indicator lit up as pressed, etc. I then powered off, connected a CD player into the CD RCA input and powered it on. It seemed to work for a short while and when I turned the volume up and down to see the the VUs works, the power started to clicked off...
