Re: New Members - please post your introductions here

Hello everyone!

I'm an electronics engineer and love to repair electronics in my free time. I have spent most of my time doing board repair on burnt laptops.

I always come here for high-quality posts and repair advice.

I've stumbled upon a dead-end in my search for a fix and will post my first question here.

Hi, I'm Fiona.

Can someone please help me with a query?
I am trying to fix an electronic keyboard (Pitchmaster DU090463) which has a blown capacitor.
I have armed myself with a new box of various sizes of capacitors and a soldering iron kit. BUT, the capacitor which has blown is unidentifiable due to it blowing to smithereens.
I guessed which size it might be based on the size of the base (all that was left of it) and the other sizes of capacitors on the pcb, but every time I replace it...boom!
How do I figure this out??
Thanks in advance.
Fiona

Re: New Members - please post your introductions here

Hello,
I am a recent electrical engineering graduate, and I enjoy designing and repairing electronics. Lately I have been repairing various electronic modules for Dodge Stealth and Mitsubishi 3000GT cars, such as engine control units, transmission control units etc. The units from the 1990s have issues with electrolytic capacitors that leak electrolyte out of the bottom seal, causing all kinds of problems. I have a hard time finding info about which capacitor series leak electrolyte, so I would like to share my findings here.

Re: New Members - please post your introductions here

Hi - I'm here because apparently products sold these days don't come with schematics or any assistance whatsoever in helping you fix them should something go wrong. I'm willing to go way beyond what an average person is willing to do to fix something, including de-soldering and soldering components for replacement. I have a collection of specialty tools, however I am by no means an expert and look for directions and instructions! So glad I found this place.

Hi, everyone

Re: New Members - please post your introductions here

Hey Everyone,

I'm Zilla, from Leeds in West Yorkshire in the UK.

I have loved computers since age 7 and worked in and with them for the best part of 25 years. It is not until fairly recently I developed a serious interest in electronics but now the rabbit is out of the hat, let's see where it goes

My first computer was an Acorn Electron, which fortunately, my parents bought me (age 7) rather than the SEGA Master System I begged them for. If I was going to get something so expensive for Christmas. I would NOT just be for playing games! . . . And the rest is History, Electron, Spectrum, C64, Amiga and eventually PC and Mac.

I am still a huge Amiga Geek now and always swore blind it had the greatest Demo Scene there ever was. I have a good handle on the use of most types of software from, some programming, C, C++, Asm, to Video Editing and Encoding, After Effects, Vdub, Vegas, to Graphics PS, Paintshop Pro, Illustrator, Audio, Fruity Loops, Goldwave, Soundtracker, Hex editors, Office etc. . I'm mucked around with almost every bit of software I've managed to get my grubby mits on over the years.

I guess it was only a matter of time before I became a little more interested with exactly what was going on under the hood. So here I am.
