Re: Vestel LCD TV, long shot and long distance challenge
No ESR meter, so was hoping for a bit of luck.
I'll take the board back to the UK, get the repair kit for this fault and fix it there.
Thanks for the tips and help....

Re: Vestel LCD TV, long shot and long distance challenge
I haven't ordered a kit yet, to do that I'll have to wait till I'm back in the UK. I thought it did show symptoms of bad caps, even though they looked OK, and also only became faulty after being left for nearly a year unused, time enough to dry out low quality caps...or so I was hoping.
Seems though as you say, I'll need to replace all the components in the kit to be more sure of a fix....Leave a comment:

Re: Vestel LCD TV, long shot and long distance challenge
I've changed 7 caps, 5 of them CapXons and the other two were on the list in the repair kit, and still have the same symptoms. The 5v standby seems OK at approx 5.12 volts, though the +5v, 12v and 24v are all absent, though as the TV isn't coming out of standby that's probably why.
I couldn't get anything other than general purpose caps from a backstreet repair shop. I was hoping they would be good enough to power it up till I can bring better ones out.
Is it likely that the new caps I bought just...Leave a comment:

Re: Vestel LCD TV, long shot and long distance challenge
Thank you for the replies. The kit I linked to lists a few other components besides the caps as a fix on this board, though being surface mounted I think I'll just try replacing the caps first.
It seems to be the same PSU/Inverter board that's used in the TEVION LCD4202. I'll replace the CapXon ones, though think whatever I get locally will be a temp fix, and I'll bring 'proper' caps back out with me next time.
These two groups are the ones included in the repair kit for this board I...Last edited by btb88; 05-05-2012, 10:39 AM.Leave a comment:

Except now I'm in Turkey! I'll see if I can source those caps and other parts locally before returning to the UK.Re: Vestel LCD TV, long shot and lon...s/KIT118[/url]Leave a comment:

Re: Vestel LCD TV, long shot and long distance challenge
I've now got some pics of the inside of this TV and wondering if anyone can identify it, and help with the bad caps to replace.
Symptoms are still the same, power LED comes on when plugged in, when trying to turn on it will sometimes turn on for a few seconds, then go off by itself, turning on and off at random, though mostly off. During this time power LED, which is also the standy LED flashes constantly.
The PSU board is: FSP294-4M01 AND P/N 38S01 4831 4GP

Re: Vestel LCD TV, long shot and long distance challenge
Thanks again. I've searched for Telestar under LCD and 10 models come, none of them are the one I've got.
Unless I can find more details for you recap experts I'll wait till I go over, I'll have to be patient.Leave a comment:

Re: Vestel LCD TV, long shot and long distance challenge
Thanks for your reply, no it isn't that one, and I couldn't find it listed on that site. I suspect its not a currently for sale model.
I'll have a look and see if I can find it listed, failing that I'll wait till I go over next time and take photos of the insides.Leave a comment:

Vestel LCD TV, long shot and long distance challenge
I've recapped a few devices now, mostly preventative, though now I'm wondering if I can possibly get help with a TV that I have in our holiday apartment that went faulty the last time we were out there.
It exhibits classic bad caps syndrome, a cheap (not cheap to buy though!), Turkish LCD TV that started not coming on (no sound or vision), after being left over the winter months unused. Then when we left it on standby, by accident really, it sprang into life, worked for a few days then went into a cycle of taking a long time to come out of standby and turning itself off and on at... -
Re: Dell 2407 inverter caps
Thanks for looking over the spec. I thought they should be suitable, but looked a bit 'weedy' (ie they are thinner!), next to the originals and I had second thoughts.
I'll go ahead and fit them.
Much appreciated....Leave a comment:

Dell 2407 inverter caps
I just did a search and couldn't find a direct answer to my quandary.
I've replaced the PSU caps on this Dell 2407 wfp monitor, its 5 or so years old and I've noticed the odd flicker so wanted to do some preventative cap changing. So, PSU all done and dusted.
When I came to look at the caps on the inverter board the ones I planned to use didn't look as 'beefy' as the ones in situ and wondered if anyone could confirm my choice is a good one...I've got 220uF 35v Rubycon ZFK series.
On paper they seem up to spec, (I think), but wanted to double check... -
