I'm stoked because I was able to fix my lcd computer monitor - it had been giving me trouble turning on for a few weeks, then the other day it just died completely. I was thisclose to buying a new one on sale at Best Buy, but I though, well, maybe I'll just open it up and take a look (couldn't hurt after all). I kept thinking "check the power supply first", and sure enough, in the ps section there were 3 caps that were bulging at the top. I checked the values and was able to scrounge some replacements out of various monitor cap kits, soldered them in, and the lcd monitor works great once again! So now I can brag that this hobby has actually saved me some money!
Anyone else fix something electronic that wasn't related to arcade games?
