Fernand, Usually checking the ESR of the caps and replacing the high ones will repair these. If you don't have an ESR meter, replace C09, C14, C04 and the 1µf cap, if it has these.C09 may be non-polar. If you have that other power supply, compare measurements.

It will not turn off with the remote or the front on/off switch. The VCR light also stays on. I measure 5.2v, about 14v, and23v. I tried another power supply from another machine and and it works ok with the replacement. I find about 6 electrolytics. Is this one of those that you have to replace all the caps? Don,t have a schematic. Any help would be appreciated. > Fernand Goguen > Goguen TV Service > Cocagne, N.B., CANADA > email: fgoguen@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > > ------------------------------------------ > To REMOVE your email address, click here: > http://www.tech-assist.org/unsubb.html > To CHANGE your email address, click here: > http://www.tech-assist.org/change.html > ------------------------------------------ > ***NEW*** Tips Added Instantly!!!*** > Submit Repair Tips here: > http://www.tech-assist.org/secure/tip/ > > ------------------------------------------ To REMOVE your email address, click here: http://www.tech-assist.org/unsubb.html To CHANGE your email address, click here: http://www.tech-assist.org/change.html ------------------------------------------ ***NEW*** Tips Added Instantly!!!*** Submit Repair Tips here: http://www.tech-assist.org/secure/tip/
