Hey team,

I'm ecstatic to see that the last post on this page was a mere four months ago. I'm working on a Shield TV unit and I have very little idea what I'm doing but I thought maybe you could give me some guidance. I've watched a number of videos and read widely and it seems that the issue is often capacitors on these things but I'm not seeing any short circuits in the likely spots. What I have noticed though, is that he little black capacitors (?) shown in the image below at the foot of the power connector are showing an open circuit. If this is normal behavior please let me know...

Good Morning,

I'm Rephlection and I'm from New Zealand. I'm probably too old for this but sometimes I get hold of broken electronics and try to fix them with varying degrees of success. Today is one of those "sometimes" and I'm having some trouble and this seems the place to be to get some help. Who knows, maybe I can help someone too .

Cheers,
Simeon
