Re: LG LCD TV Model 47LB5D Bad Caps
I replaced all 4 capacitors and gave it a try. It is working as a brand new one.
Too bad I forgot to take a picture before replacing the back cover.
It seems I have a new television and it cost me 15$ (most of it shipping and taxes) instead of 1000$. Yes!!

LG LCD TV Model 47LB5D Bad Caps
My friend has an LG TV that simply stopped working. I had a look at the main board and found 4 popped capacitors. All four are SAMWHA 2200 uF 10V capacitors so I supposed they are the source of the problem. My question is: what are my chances to fix the TV if I replace those 4 capacitors?
I know almost nothing in electronics but I repaired with success a computer with bad caps a few years ago and it is still working :-)... -
Re: Advice needed
Thanks for the info but I think that as long as it works... This computer is mostly for the kids to play with.
I do have another problem though...
This mobo has an old Radeon Xpress 1250 integrated in it so I inserted a better graphic card in the PCIe slot but the computer failed to restart :-( Could this problem be related to bad caps too?
Goodpsusearch was talking about a toasted mosfet near the PCIe slot, I have no idea what a mosfet is doing or if it is linked to the PCIe slot.Leave a comment:

Re: Advice needed
I had to give it a try but since it was possible to buy a brand new mobo from the internet at around 35$ I needed a cheap and fast way to fix these caps.
Luckily I found a dead graphic card with TMZ caps showing the same uF and V values. I salvaged all the caps (I know it is not recommended but...) and I replaced all 3 bulging capacitors. I didn't even have to remove the mobo from the computer as I had access to the pins from behind.

The computer is working.

Re: Advice needed
Before starting to invest my time and money on this, what do you think my chances are that replacing the caps will fix the computer? I mean, when a capacitor fails, is there a good chance that it will damage other parts of the mobo?
Also, these KZG caps are 1000uF 6,3V. I found Nichicon HZ, HM, HN??? Which ones are the right ones?Leave a comment:

Advice needed
I do not speak english on a regular basis so let's keep it simple.
When I start my computer (ACER Aspire T671 AST671-FP820A) the fans are turning but that's all. After trying many things (other PSU, new graphics card, new CR2032 battery on the mobo(It was testing less than 1V)) I finally started looking closely at the caps and I found 3 bulging caps(see picture). When I measure resistance, one is showing around 0,35 ohm while the others are at 0.
Do you think the my problem is the caps and should I test other things before starting to replace them?
