| + | [* black] Identifying bad capacitors is fairly simple. Start with a [http://www.google.com/images?q=bad+capacitor|search for images of bad capacitors] to see what they look like. |
|---|---|
| + | [* black] If one capacitor has failed, there is a good chance the ones around it will fail, or may have partially failed. They were manufactured around the same time. Also, when a component fails, the rest of the circuit can be damaged by the electrical stress. |
| + | [* black] Doing them all at the same time is fairly easy. |
| + | [* black] New capacitors cost a few cents. |
| + | [* black] Each capacitor is coded on the side with: |
| + | [* black] Manufacturer and/or Product (Green box in the image) |
| + | [* black] Red box: Capacity (micro Farads); Blue box: Voltage (V); Yellow circle: Temperature Rating (C) |
| + | [* black] Notice also how the capacitor on the right has obviously "blown out". |
