 Posted: Sun Jun 13, 2004 1:12 am Post subject: One of my capacitors is bulging AGAIN! |
 |
|
A few months ago I sent my Epox motherboard in to have the capacitors,
which were bulging and leaking, replaced. Today I had the lid off,
and I noticed that the top of one is bulging. I don't know whether it's
one that was obviously in need of replacement the last time, but I
assumed they did them all, since the problem was known to affect all
capacitors of a certain size, manufacture, and vintage.
I'm a bit peeved.

Can you give the type number of that board. |
That gives this newgroup a indication of Epox is still using bad capacitors

I think it's more likely they only replaced the ones that were bulging
or leaking the first time around, so that the one that's bulging now is
one of the originals. But that in itself is pretty disappointing.
Given the nature of the problem, it seems to me the reasonable/prudent
thing to do would have been to replace them all when I sent it in the
first time.
FWIW, it's an 8KTA3+Pro.
