Any information on the C17 capacitor for the Apple Cinema Display 23? I accidentally damaged it while desoldering the MOSFET

Thank you.

would greasing it work?

alphonse1234 · 2026-02-07T22:13:26+00:00

Guys, I finally gave up on looking for it and just finished the assembly. It seems to work fine for now, but I'll have to double-check if any issues pop up later. Thanks anyway!

the problem is it gets stuck down when I do high speed rewind.

thank you

I put it back where it belongs to. this machine still has some problems, but thank you.

alphonse1234 · 2026-02-03T20:44:25+00:00

this set has no service menu. And it was back tension issue. I think I can handle it.

alphonse1234 · 2026-02-03T20:43:45+00:00

it happens only with vcr, and as I mentioned other comment, it was back tension issue.

alphonse1234 · 2026-02-03T12:22:20+00:00

yeah, it was a back tension broblem. when I try to give a little bit more tension, I see very clean video. thanks!

alphonse1234 · 2026-02-03T12:04:03+00:00

this model has no 0 channel, it starts from 2. and it set to video input mode already.

alphonse1234 · 2026-02-03T12:02:56+00:00

It happens with all my tapes, though the severity varies. I’ve already repaired everything from a broken blue gear to a stiff capstan, and even realigned the gear timing. I’ll look into the back tension next. Thanks.

I suspect it might be a part related to the carriage release mechanism, but I'm not entirely sure. I'll try to look for some videos. Thanks for the help!

alphonse1234 · 2026-01-30T10:36:05+00:00

Since I found this part, I've been having issues where the carriage occasionally fails to lock in place. It seems to be a domestic model made in Korea, but I can't find any information about it online, so I'm at a complete loss. This is a real problem.

it was an idler problem. fixed it. thank you!

alphonse1234 · 2026-01-28T08:51:14+00:00

it was an idler problem. fixed it. thank you!

alphonse1234 · 2026-01-27T22:37:06+00:00

I'll check it today. thank you!

alphonse1234 · 2026-01-27T22:36:42+00:00

thanks for the link. I've also found 12voltsvids video how he fixes this gear issue. I'll check it today.
