Reel deep thoughts...
Lettering-
So each channel 1-20 or 1-12 in my case has a letter assigned to it? And this letter corresponds to info in the manual that says what type of caps to use?
Yes. Did you look at the chart at the bottom of page 142? Study that.
Won't it be obvious by just counting the caps and referring to your 3 bullet points?
Sure...that's one way to do it. Your helper is trying to get you acclimated to referencing the service manual to generate parts lists. Plus your *helper* needs to know which channel you are recapping so he can tell you which caps to get.
Are you saying my guinea pig count was off and my post #478 was correct?
Your original guinea pig count was 22 which fits into none of the card types A~G. Your list in post #478 is correct, for channels 3 and 4, types B and C which have all 26 electrolytic caps mounted.
I recounted my guinea pig and counted 23 caps, which means it must be a "all other channels" module.
1UF 50V
10UF 16V (all excpt A)...x6
22UF 25V (b, c)............x6
47UF 25V.....................x5
100UF 16V...................x2
470UF 16V
22UF 50V....................x2
Yawp.
Now you get your shopping list:
(1) 1uF/50V (looks like the KT parts are out of stock...might call them to see if it is gonna be awhile and if so this is a perfectly fine alternative in that spot: http://www.mouser.com/ProductDetail/Nichicon/UPW1H010MDD1TD/?qs=sGAEpiMZZMtZ1n0r9vR22UXbiauPutPBbMos4l4iQ1o%3d
(6) 10uF/16V
(6) 22uF/25V
(2) 47uF/25V (C59, 60)
(3) 47uF/25V (C10, C11, C15)
(2) 100uF/16V
(1) 470uF/16V NP
(2) 22uF/50V
Another thing I'm confused about is you say,
"(this count EXcludes caps denoted as "(B, C)", and INcludes caps denoted as "(All except A)"."
So obviously 22UF 25V is noted as "(b,c). What does that mean? That cap is on the circuit board not once but 6 times!
Yes, 22uF/25V is noted as "(b,c)"...ONE OF THEM...C19. Look at the parts list on page 142.
Has my guinea pig been recapped wrong?
No.
hold the boat...
I'm trying...damn current is getting stronger...that's not an electrical pun...
looking at the board it has a section that says "phono. Line, AMP" In this section there are missing caps... ( c16, c17, c18, c19) I'm pretty sure that makes my guinea pig a B & C channel. Which makes sense because you say,
"("B" and "C" boards have ALL the electrolytic caps mounted)."
However 23 plus 4 = 27...
I'll answer your question with two questions:
1. Look at the parts list on page 142. Tell me what kind of caps are specified for C17 and C18?
2. If types B and C are for channels 3 and 4, the ones WITH the phono amps, why do you think your guinea pig is a B and C type when it is missing those caps?
Is the parts link your providing me gonna be for the entire console? the 512 should be like the 520 (-) 8 channels.
No. Just the one guinea pig module so far. Are you planning on ordering caps for an entire console? Because you're going to do the power supply first.
Also, for future recap jobs, is it possible without a manual to look up what caps are on the board and order new caps with the correct values? If we were not talking that's probably what I would have done.
Sure. And you can also play music by ear...a valuable skill just like being able to look at a parts assembly and identify parts. Of equal value is being able to read and write music...or make the service manual your friend. You wanted a shopping list, and I'm giving it to you while being a PITA trying to get you comfy with the service manual.
