    Vizio M60-C3 Replacing 1000uF 16V with 1000uF 35V capacitors?

    Hi, my Vizio M60-C3 does not power on. No lights whatsoever. Upon opening up the TV, the power supply board has 4 bulging capacitors. Each is 1000uF 16V. I have read that one can use capacitors of the same uF and higher voltage rating, but is 1000uF 35V capacitor too high of a voltage rating? My local shop only has these higher voltage capacitors so would rather just buy the 35V variety if it is OK to use them.

    Any thoughts if OK to use these higher voltage capacitors?

    Going to higher voltage on caps is typically ok since these are max voltage ratings. However, power supply switching caps need to be low ESR. I would just order from Digikey if you are in US or Canada Rubycon ZLH series capacitors.

    That being said, Vizio M series have lots of BGA failures on the main board.

      Thanks! How can one tell if the capacitor has low ESR? For example, the below link is for a 1000uF 25V capacitor, but says nothing about ESR rating/value.

        Assume not unless it says otherwise.
        NTE has been known to distribute the cheapest possible capacitors that meet the requirements they write and if they don't include ESR/tanδ, it won't be low ESR.

        That being said, these still could work ... for a while.

            Replacing capacitors on a 12v 5000w Pure Sine Inverter .
            by Tyran
            Greetings folks. I darn near blew the heck out of my 12V inverter the other day by connecting it to a 24V battery source. :poof . Well lesson learned...... or maybe not . But in the meantime I have 4 Capacitors that need immediate replacing each rated at 16V 3300uf and 105deg. I saw a break down review You Tube video where the host suggested that the 35V Capacitors were a better choice for manufacturers to use. Another video suggested that replacing capacitors of higher Voltage is fine but that the 3300uf rating should be kept the same. Can someone please clarify what the functional benefits...

            Help with replacing Capacitors on Altec Lansing ATP 3
            by yuzupatogik
            Hello,
            I have this old (2004?) Altec Lansing ATP3 and i would like to replace the capacitors. I have identified 34 out of the 36 of them as Samxon GR of various capacities and voltages.

            I can't find datasheets for the Samxon in any of the following variants:

            10000uF 25 v - this one i really want to replace because i suspect it is what causes a dull hum regardless of the volume knob position or if the source is plugged in. I am eyeballing the Rubycon 25PK10000MEFCGC18X35.5 for this purpose. So if i pay a 10x the price part for shipping i might as well go ahead and...

            Are these 1000uF 10v Topmay capacitors from eBay ok?
            by awdrifter
            I just bought some 1000uF 10v capacitors from eBay to fix my Samsung 2220WM, but it seems like they are already bulging? Are they ok to use? Thanks....

            Replacing backlights in Vizio V755-J04
            by x_orange90_x
            I've had this monster for several months as I've hesitated to order backlights for it. Finally did order them and they are due to arrive tomorrow. Besides having ample space to work, are there any recommendations for working on such a massive screen? Should I remove the panel by myself or would 2 people be a better choice? I bought the double-cup suction cups from Harbor Freight and have been using them for the last few repairs on smaller screens. They are far superior to the single cup orange ones I used previously that would often let go without warning 😱.

            I have not replaced...

            After updating motherboard capacitors, what to do next (Asrock K7VT2, SOLTEK SL-75FRN2L)
            by dragon3x
            Hi, I have some 32 bits computer motherboards that need repair, as they fail to
            power on.

            Here are some examples :

            (N.B. "capacitors" indicated here are electrolytic capacitors located in the onboard
            switching supply area).
            (N.B. #2 : I could not find a 3300 microF aluminum-polymer with a higher voltage
            than 6.3 V.)

            1 - Motherboard #1 : this is an Asrock K7VT2 (socket A) that still works well. To put it on test
            I replaced capacitors with aluminum-polymer.
            3300 microF/6.3 V. x 4 replaced by 3300 microF/6.3 V. (KYOCERA...
