    Fixed Sceptre U435CV-U Another bad cap from poor cooling

    39uF 160V cap bulging (see pic). Replaced (temporarily with one thats too tall for the space) and fixed.

    But root problem is once again high heat density (18mm between board and back cover). Combined single board main+PSU and no fan.

    While shopping for Nichicon replacement, all 10k hr @ 105C was 17.5mm height which barely clears the rear case. Failed cap was 13mm tall with much fewer choices.

    Seeing so many newer TVs die by heat (BGAs etc) Need to figure out an easy way to mount fans

      Samsung R530 Bremen motherboard cooling
      by Ace Perception
      Hi,
      I'm wondering if anybody out there has much knowledge of Samsung Bremen motherboards.
      I've got a Samsung R530 which is about 10 years old, over the last 12 months it developed a worsening problem where when asked to do much work it would shut itself down. I had a good idea this was due to overheating which was confirmed by a temperature monitor programme which showed little balls of fire next to the various internal temperature readings. I could also prevent it shutting down if I placed a huge fan running at full speed in front of its air intake!
      So I went in pursuit of...

      Samsung UN55NU7300F Curved TV. Half side backlight out. Fixed by just removing the rear snap cover
      by howardc64
      TV was fixed just after removing Samsung's rear snap cover.

      This curved TV's construction is rather interesting. When the snapped on back is removed, rest of the TV will relax the curvature. Top of LCD panel is loose as it wants to straighten out against the slightly curved bezel. Snapped back provide most of the curvature shape. So just simple disassembly of rear cover will allow the rest of the TV frame to relax its curvature. Thats probably what fixed it but no idea which connection. 4x LEDs are edge lit.

      Maybe PSU->backlight connector didn't have a good contact?...

      HannStar Hanns-G HC194d LCD monitor repair
      by momaka
      Normally, I never post repairs this quick after I do them, because… I am usually very slow. But today, I’m making an exception here. Why? No idea. Perhaps only because the repair details are still “fresh” in my head… which is ironic, given this is a 16 year old monitor that hardly anyone will care about today. It is new to me, though. I picked it up last November from someone on my local Craigslist. It wasn’t very close to where I live, but was close to a family friend that I had to go visit anyways. So after watching the posting on Craigslist for a few weeks and seeing it getting...

      Liquid cooling?
      by Hondaman
      I hope my computer does not randomly reboot while typing this. My main system is the AsRock 970A-G/3.1 motherboard with the AMD 8150 chip. I am experiencing FREQUENT and RANDOM reboots once the system is used for a couple of hours (sometimes it reboots before I even get to the Win7/Linux Mint dual-boot screen). The problem MIGHT be the DRAM controller chip (I recently upgraded to the maximum 64 GB RAM). It also might be the VRM chips. I am using a typical aftermarket CPU cooler, which does NOT blow air DOWN onto the VRM heat sink.

      (After previous generation hardware [Gigabyte] didn't...

      Help repair Panasonic fridge not cooling
      by mikey5791
      Hi all forum members,

      Few days ago, i might have forgotten to close my home fridge freezer door completely. The next day, the ice cubes and frozen meat almost melted halfway and the freezer doesn't feel cool. I shut it off, wipe dry and let it air dry for one whole day. The next day i switched on the fridge, the compressor run for a second and it shuts off(no vibration and no sound at all) only the internal freezer compartment fan is running but is not cooling even i switched on a full day.
      After shut off, i dismantle the rear water pan holder and reached to the compressor wiring....
