I have a malfunctioning Viewsonic VX922. I opened it up and was looking around for any obvious problems. It has 2 caps that have bulging tops on the PSU board, they are 10v 1000mf Capxon, but no other signs of problem, as well as 2 caps that have some rust looking stuff under them, it flowed out from one of the caps. They are 25volt 22mf Teapo caps. They are between the DVI port and a Realtec chip.
Could this be the cause of the problems?
I am thinking they can't cost more then a few bucks and should be within my skill to replace. So should I even try it? Is there a way to test caps to see if they are still working?
I know a while back there was Caps that had problems and they caused malfunctions. i believe one of the problems was leaking Electrolite.
