Default Re: JVC VCR PSU problems

When you replace the electrolytics, make sure you use Low ESR types 105 degree. Using cheaper 85 degree types will end in tears or at very least a power supply that won't work at all. Switch mode supplies such as this are very critical of capacitor types. Fitting the wrong type can cause damage to semiconductor devices....
