fuckin hell, cully! how did you learn how to fix this stuff?


Re: whats wrong????!!!! - cully - 14-03-2012

self taught mostly but google is king Wink
basic knowledge of how stuff works and hours of ripping broken stuff apart to see how it works


Re: whats wrong????!!!! - Toms306 - 14-03-2012

Argh, lots of wires! Confusedhock: looks like the stereo wires in my old 1.8 tbh lol! lmao


Re: whats wrong????!!!! - cully - 14-03-2012

you cannot beat self taught! i did repair our house alarm twice. once me dad decided to f*ck about with cable trunking and cut a main wire. told me mum "oh the alarms gone off" after he decided to gaffer tap the wires back together. so while he was at work, and my mum going off in a one about the alarm. as she saw his bit repair. i said i will solder the wires back and ask the fourm if any sparkys are on there. did a post and i was told what fuses to check and change. with in an hr we had a working alarm. also he blew a senor too so i swopped that for a new one too. not bad for someone whos never even played with stuff like that.
also i sorted the internal battary too as that died, my mum had replaced it but the system was still down. i told her to switch the power off in the house and i budged the ends of the battary. full system came to life again.
saved a fare few quid again Smile

Everything these days is made with cheap, shit capacitors wherever possible.

Fucks me right off. The amount of DECENT equipment chucked away due to failed caps is unreal.


whats wrong????!!!! - kentiiboii - 15-03-2012

That's why I'm doing laptops ATM. The amount in buying just because it needs new keyboards, a screen inverter or just dead memory. I bought 4 ylod ps3 for £30 from a lad that thought he knew what he was doing. And I've fixed them and sold them £80 each. And still have plenty I'd parts for them.


Re: whats wrong????!!!! - cully - 20-03-2012

ow oow guess what Smile

no i havenot got a MX5!

i have got the telly working though!!

he he haha!

im still waiting for some components to attempt a repair on the powersupply
as its not a simple capacitor replacement job
but ive found a working PSU on ebay ! bonus!!!!!

Re: whats wrong????!!!! - 3DHDi - 21-03-2012

Paul, you sir are a very clever chap! Even self teaching myself to do something like that I know full well I would get mighty pissed off and bored with it lol!


Re: whats wrong????!!!! - Bananalad - 21-03-2012

Well done cully iv done this a few times, quite easy once you know what your looking for and can make a fair few quid, but doing it all day does get boring sometimes lol


Re: whats wrong????!!!! - cully - 21-03-2012

just a little update
the tv is working now on its original power supply!
as ive repaired that to component level

replaced 2 mosfet chips and it burst into life Smile
for anyone interested the mosfets are a fast switch which turn 350vdc back into rough AC before being converted into the many rail voltages in a TV

price break down
faulty tv £25
capacitors £4.80
Mosfets £6.30
Replacment power supply £29.99

i should be able to sell the PSU i bought from ebay
to recoupe some of that money
