SME 03

 This page is on the report of the failure of the SME 03 LCD display

The display was more and more unable to be read. At the end, impossible to read.

 

Power supply/interface for the LCD graphic board + optic wheel encoder

(red circle is the area with oxydation, liquid leakage, picture is normal mounted position)

LCD is OPTREX DMF 50161A 

Normal components side

 

 

SMD components side

100uF 50v, 47uF 50v electrolytic capacitors have a leakage of the electolyte, some solder are oxyded. The worst was under the components. Red circle is liquid state of electrolyte.

Capacitors are removed, see also under the bottom diode.

After alcohool cleaning

 

 Coopper pads trouble.

After patterns repair, capacitors and diodes replacement the SME 03 is perfect. May be the CFL backlight is a little at the end of life.

Nota : I don't have exact value under the hand.... 100uF 50v replaced by 220uF 50v, low ESR Panasonic FM serie. 47uF 50v Replaced by 33uF 50v, low ESR Panasonic FM serie. Diode 1N4007 by 1N4004.

LCD is ok 

 

My SME 03 have the same failure, please give details
