Problem with LG Electronics LRM-519 Digital Media Recorder DVR/DVD Recorder with 160GB Hard Drive LRM519

lrm 519 replace capacitors

Hey,

you said you changed out the capacitors c-18, c-36 correct.

I assume then you pulled the whole board out to do this?
I have never done this before.
My C-36(green in color) has a slight bulge on it so assume that one is the culprit.

Please advise on steps used to replace if you do not mind.
This thing is not worth sending out to get fixed (IMO).

I am sure I can do it if I have the steps given.

Thanks,

RJ

    • Unfortunately replacing the capacitors didn't fix mine, it still appears that the power supply is dead (no DC voltage is showing with it plugged into AC power).  Any other components that are known to go bad?

    • I went to record something today and discovered my LRM-519 wouldn't power on.  I found this thread and I must say thank you!


      I watched the youtube video (I had already taken mine apart), but it was reassuring to see it done.


      I placed an order for the 2200uf caps today.  It looks like a simple enough repair.  I also ordered a desolder pump as I don't know where my old one has gone.


      Thanks,
      -Dave

Pull those capacitors out and replace them. I did this and everything is working perfect now.
