Re: caps on Dell 250 watt power supply Hipro hp-p2507fwp or HP-p2507f3cp

Well the second one was a bit of a challenge. After testing the fuse and swapping all the caps it would not power up then I started re-swapping all the caps but I noticed it would power up when I bent the bd slightly so I shut the lights out and looked for a spark. I found that the fuse holder had bent open slightly causing a bad connection. I bent it back and all is well with this one. Guess its on to the next one.

Success on the first PSU I swapped all but the 50v caps with salvaged caps and got the 50v at a local store for a buck and it looks good so far. i went with 6.3v on some of the 10s and 16v on one of the 25v

Thanks that cap by the purple wire is a 470uf 16v i will include it also I had to pull it to read it.

I have a few Dell GX260 and GX270 PSU's that are dead and I am wanting to replace the capacitors. Both models Hipro hp-2507fwp or fp2507f3cp have the same value capacitors. I have read on other posts that all the large ARCON caps should be replaced. I made a diagram / picture in hopes that someone could tell me if I am on the right track or if I am swapping to many or to little caps. the hp-p2507fwp psu has a bulging 3300, 4700, and 1000uf 16v and the HP-p2507f3cp only has a visible 1000uf 10v c302 bulging

here is the total list
470uf 25v ARCON QTY-1
4700uf 10v ARCON...
