Hello everyone,
Such a great thread, big thanks to Wayneh for starting back in 2014, a great run so far. Also thanks to 5haggy for the list of parts with links, super helpful and to Jay Miller for the PCB photo with cap specs. And to all who have contributed along the way, I've been having a blast with this.
Now on to business. I have a Frigidaire with 2 fx-101 boards and have the similar issue as stated prior. Plug it in nothing works. Unplug the TEC from the top board and everything turns on. Lights inside, fans and the LED's. Prior visual inspection of the large caps (120uf 200v) showed some melting of the cover so I ordered replacement. Question - the replacement caps have same capacitance but the size is not the same. See picture below. Does anyone see this as an issue over time?
By the way, that didn't resolve the issue. I ordered all replacement caps and will start with the c8 as recommended.
Thanks all
