Hi,

First time openning up my TV and I think I can change some capacitors. There is a lot of information out there, but I figured I wanted to ask the experts.

Model: CF2662B
Chasis: 9215
Manuf. Date: March 1993

The picture shows 4 or 5 horizontal lines (white colored) at the top of the screen. The width of all the lines is about 4 inches.

Could you please advice on which capacitors I need to change?

I was able to find C305, but I can't find C301 in case I need to change it.

How do I change the capacitors? Do I just pull out the old ones and insert the new ones?

Thanks for you help.

I found C301 and C305. I need a confirmation on which capacitors need to be changed.

Any input would be appreciated.

Thanks

Mario, Also check C308 220uf@35volts. If you have a soldering iron just heat solder on each leg and gently remove. Observe the black or white stripe on the side of the capacitor, that points to the negative leg. That leg most go back in the same direction the orginal one came out. Or, look for a plus + mark on the circuit, the stripe points opposite of that +mark.
