PC engine LT capacitor question and LCD mod
« on: December 27, 2019, 04:12:08 PM »
Hi
I tried to replace the capacitor of my LT and I ripped the +pad of the 33µf 10V (surrounded in the pics bellow) #-o
My question: do you know where goes the pad normally , I saw  a trace which has been partially  taken off (yellow on picture) . Do you know if the +pad was connected to another trace or conponent?
thanks in advance;)

I don't have an LT in front of me to check. Kind of hard to tell from the pics. Hold the board up to a bright light to see if you can follow where the trace goes.

Damned! I was counting on your big pcengine knowledge  :-\
I will solder the new capacitor on the yellow trace , hope it has been connected only to this trace :pray:
