    TV PSU Repair - Diode replacement

    Hi Griffinballs, Welcome back. First, you don't check diodes with V. You use the continuity or Diode function on the meter. The SB5100 diode is a shottky diode. 5A 100v or similar. Martin

    Where can I get these things

    No, that is solid core. It will break after a few bends. (it will work) but not for a moveable cable. You need flexible stranded wire. ALso you need the connectors first and then go to an electronics shop to find the cable that fits in the connector. Martin

    My apologies. You only need 8 core for using the cable as data and charge. The link I gave you in the first post has the pin outs. Martin

    Hi Andrew, Try looking up 8 core alarm cable or something similar. I have already told you some places to get you started. Martin

    It would have to be very flexible and stranded. And obviously multicore. Martin

    Where can I get these things

    Hi Andrew, The link Here has all the info on the pin-outs etc. I would think, If they keep breaking, the biggest you can fit in the connector. You can buy wire any electronics shop, electrical wholesaler and some places like Maplin, Mouser, Digikey.. USB wont be a problem at all, Ebay or some...

    Radio Helmet Receiver Help

    Hi BRW, If you open the unit, you may find a name or something on the back of the screen. Also, when you open it, does the screen flex cable have a connector? Martin

    Identifying a resistor

    Probably because most resistors are quite tiny, and reading values would be more difficult than coloured bands. Then they would have to print silly codes like on smd. That would be even more confusing... Martin

    Philips TV: no power.

    And here is something I stole another website:) Update: I found a service manual which mentions the power supply in your photo. Connectors CN2 and CN3 bring high voltage from the transformer to the backlights, and the four capacitors appear to bring the HV signal down to several protection...
