thanks kind sir. and waiting on the last few to come in got most of them now ordered bags/boxes of 5 and 10's just incase plus for the dash and future to help others in need.

you don't need bags of them, just those brands listed above and make sure they are the low ESR type that yamae specified in post #8 of this thread and that they are 105C temp rated, and at least as high of a voltage as the originals.
examples: Rubycon type ZLH Nippon Chemi-con type KZE Panasonic type FR Attachment 501425Attachment 501695Attachment 501426Attachment 501427Attachment 501695Attachment 501428Attachment 501695Attachment 501429 |
It would be really nice if someone sold these capacitors as a kit.

I'm thinking solid state capacitors this way no liquid to leak. Also higher temp rating
http://www.avx.com/docs/Catalogs/tap.pdf http://www.digikey.com/scripts/dksearch/dksus.dll http://www.digikey.com/scripts/dksearch/dksus.dll They cost a lot more which is why manufactures do not use them |

The defect ratio has dropped but we still we had market failures time to time.:mad: We ended up not to use them anymore. |
I like to save up tantalum capacitors & lithium batteries for New's Years celebrations, cheaper than conventional fireworks - very good BANG! - lol

Ok guys....i have my work cut out for me, but nothing beats a failure but a good try. I will keep you all posted on my progress....

I found that due to it being a multi-layer board, I had to solder the caps on both sides of the board, just "get in and get out" on the soldering, these caps do not like high heat from the soldering iron for an extended time period, and keep the leads long for the same reason (maximize lead length from board to cap) - you can always fold the cap down when you are done to make it fit back inside ECU case. I also gave the board and ECU casing a blow of gentle compressed air when I was done to ensure no clipped leads or stray solder remained, but be gentle! |
I'm not buying the exploding capacitors since those types are used all over inside cell phones. Unless they are not used on the power circuits.
I looked it up and I guess you are correct if incorrectly applied. From wikipidea The low leakage and high capacity of tantalum capacitors favor their use in sample and hold circuits to achieve long hold duration, and some long duration timing circuits where precise timing is not critical. They are also often used for power supply rail decoupling in parallel with film or ceramic capacitors which provide low ESR and low reactance at high frequency. Tantalum capacitors can replace aluminum electrolytic capacitors in situations where the external environment or dense component packing results in a sustained hot internal environment and where high reliability is important. Equipment such as medical electronics and space equipment that require high quality and reliability makes use of tantalum capacitors. An especially common application for low-voltage tantalum capacitors is power supply filtering on computer motherboards and in peripherals, due to their small size and long-term reliability.[2][3] When applying tantalum capacitors, the possibility of thermal runaway (see above) or spontaneous short-circuiting must be considered. In many cases, a failed capacitor will only make the circuit stop functioning normally. However, if sufficient power is available, catastrophic thermal runaway may cause a fire or small explosion. A design can prevent this by using external current limiting (e.g. thermal fuse, circuit breaker). |
Ok there were some questions for me...
I am sorry to resopnd so late: The ECU is from my LS400 build 1991 ufc10 The thing laying on the circuitboard is problably a hair from the white dog i have. I really do not know anything about values or transistors on my ECU. These pictrues were taken to show to the experts to see if i have ECU issues. Do i have ECU issues ? Greetings from the Dam |

Greetings from the Dam if you have it open or what not can you get a better look or pic under/around C715 and the one next to it and like every one else says if you dont now you, you will later so might as well fix em. Oh what are your symptoms that you are having? |
I have seen capacitors look OK at a glance. But the ESR shows too big and the capacitance too low. It would be better for old LS400/Celcior owners to replace those capacitors as a preventive maintenance. They only cost 10 dollars+ or so.

Nichicon, Nippon and Rubycon are on amazon very easy for 1 payment and it was cheaper to get more in a bag for the shipping plus i got more to play with now
