    Hitachi 27 (1991) so many fishy badcaps!

    And rank.

    Nich and Rubyicons; TWSS and SME series, few big ones and about 40 little total ones; 4.7uF, mostly 10uF, some 47uF capacitors. Had to clean out the ooze too.

    Is that because of bad bung seal around the leads? And why did some use electrolyte that is very rank smelling like a ROTTING fish? Not to mention that smell get worse when desoldering them out. Make you feel like need to get repirator mask.

    Reason I did this looong recap job session is CRT is still excellent and high end model: has bass speaker box on top, S-Video and few inputs and one output with choice of internal speakers or external speaker outputs (unampified and ampified). Now excellent pic and audio. And to pocket the pay for the work. I work for TV shop.

    Cheers, Wizard

    I still have a Hitachi from 1975 sitting around here that used to be my grandma's. You'd think it was made yesterday, the picture is that bright and vivid on it. I've had to replace a few capacitors on it, but it's worth replacing a few caps to keep a good Hitachi in service

      Hitachi 32HAE2351 Vestel 17MB171 - Rotate Image
      Mainboard: VESTEL 17MB171 Chassis: VES315WNGB - 2D - N52
      The TV was stuck on the logo and I couldn't access the update menu.
      I couldn't find the firmware for the Hitachi 32HAE2351 and updated it with the Toshiba 32WA2063DG - Vestel 17MB171 firmware.
      The image result was good, but the image is inverted.
      The image rotation/mirror function doesn't exist in the Menu Server. I can't correct the image.
      Do you have the firmware for the Hitachi 32HAE2351 - Vestel 17MB171 motherboard or a solution to rotate the image in...

      Hitachi 40HYC42
      by dragometin
      TV Model: Hitachi 40HYC42
      Power Supply: 17IPS71
      MainBoard: 17MB95M
      Panel: VES400UNDS-2D-NO3

      When the set came in it was dead. Fuse was open primary side and the power mosfet was shorted. So I ordered a new power supply. Now it turns on, only displays "Hitachi" and then power off red and blue led flashing.

      I had to modify the 0ohm resistors in the led backlight of the new PS like the original power supply.
      Is there any variants on 17IPS71 power supply's?

      UART output pins 10 and 12 on scart connector:

      Help finding the correct model of a T-Con board on my Hitachi TV
      by sotodefonk
      Hi, I have a Hitachi tv model L47V651, there is no image, but sound and backlights turn on, so I believe the issue is the tcon board.

      I opened the tv to access the board and took the shared pictures of the T-Con board.

      I saw a video from shopjimmy on how to detect the model number on tcon boards, but this doesn't have a sticker like how that video showed all boards.

      I searched the P/N number and got results with the same marking name and P/N my board has but they list other specific tv models like Vizio and Philips brand but not Hitachi.

      Inspecting...
