Re: Samsung LN-T4065F problems OK, I think i've got a couple pictures to upload of my power supply....the 4 caps that I have circled are the 10 volt ones that I read should be changed to 16 volts..also, they have slightly raised tops (might mean nothing but I thought I'd let you know)... Thanks for trying to help me thru this..... |

I'm going to change them this weekend if Radio Shack has them but usually I go there for something they don't know what I'm talking about (school kids)... no where else in the Hazard Ky. area that I know about that would have them....
Wish me luck, the ol' lady wants her TV back...hahaha..
Thanks very much 3SGTE...appreciate it. |

Just so you know.. that "Slightly raised top" is the "Bulging" that others were talking about earlier.
Also I should point out that is most likely a multilayer board, So solider with care. |

Bulging tops on caps is bad. Typically you see brown goo on the underside of these caps as they have failed. The purpose of the 'peace-sign' or cross shape on the top is so that the cap will explode with less force by splitting open cleanly. If you look at the rubber plug at the bottom of a bulged cap, you typically see it's partly pushed out and the goo is there.
