Re: New Members - please post your introductions here

Hello everyone,
I'm here in Sydney, Australia and I'm essentially an electronic tech trained in the UK. I was a field tech for year but these days I'm in marketing but I still love electronics as a hobby and I'll have a crack at fixing anything!
Tonight I've found Badcaps whilst looking for information to help me fault find a DSE GE6880 55" LED TV with no picture (but I've got power). I'm fairly conversant with PSUs but the whole concept of this LED is a new challenge. Backlights...hmmm, where to start?!
Heaps on info on this site by the look of it.
Oh, I'm a pilot too

Re: New Members - please post your introductions here

Hello
Dave here from Clear-View TV.
Thanks for having this forum. My early experience was with R&D at Sperry Univac(now Unisys) custom Systems working with engineers on limited production modifications. This was back in the day of 8080A 2mhz processors of which I knew assembly language level programming as well as building from scratch hardware.
After taking a 10 plus years from electronics, in 96, I took over a local TV repair shop from a wonderful man(Joe) who loved to solve problems.
Looking forward to learning and sharing information that may be beneficial to those in this forum.
Thanks again for being here!

Re: New Members - please post your introductions here

Hi all! I'm a programmer from the Netherlands, currently living in Germany, and recently started to get into electronics thanks to the Youtube channels of Big Clive and, later on, Louis Rossman.

I signed up to download the schematics for a mid-2010 Macbook Pro 7,1 (A1278), because I have one here with a battery that's not charging. A couple of years ago, it suddenly stopped working (according to the previous owner). I'm looking whether this is a problem of the board or the battery, to see if a replacement battery could fix the problem. Cheers!

estuber here.

I do electronics, software and am a DYI repairman. Hate to throw anything away that I can fix.

Most of my work is computers, I have been doing that since PCs were invented.

I connect my wire in Oregon USA but once plugged in am global.

Currently I am trying to fix a LG 47LE5500 TV that went dark and quiet. The power supply module is OK so I think the problem is in the LVDS power supply on the main processor board.

Thanks

Hello Badcaps community,
I'm chicagojc. I occasionally dabble in gadget repair. A couple of days ago, the picture went out on my one year old Samsung LED tv. I'm interested to see if this has happened to any other Samsung owners.

Wish me luck!

Hey y'all. I am a freelance web developer by day and an electronics hobbyist by night. I have been hooked by that goddamn newyorker Loius Rossman and his youtube channel https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCl2...jw_ELax4Yisf6w

Thanks Loius.

Being in the electronic repair business for over 25 years would eventually land me here. It was only a matter of time. With today's LCD/LED and plasma TV's troubleshooting has gotten a little more interesting and very challenging at times. Therefore, I have found that a collective of problem solving minds involved with locating and repairing some of these issues has been very helpful. While there are times that I am very busy and cannot contribute, there will be many times that I will help when I can. Hopefully, there will be times that some of you will have an answer for me when I get stuck . Together, we make the forum what it is . "Badcaps" is a good name for a good reason. However, lately is looks as though "Badleds" might be appropriate :-)

Hi there, found this forum while searching for how to identify a certain capacitor on a Mini Cooper climate control unit. Good at working on cars, not so much on electronics.
