OK thanks for the info. I will take a photo tonight when I get home from work. In the meantime, here is what I found on Google for the same problem on the same TV : I just fixed this very same problem. It is the capacitors that are the problem. I think that if you have some minimal...

If I was lucky, how do i get the processor to run and bring it out of standby ?

Got a 5 year old 42 inch tv with this model number and leave it overnight on standby. Got up this morning and there was no power. Checked mains plug and internal fuse - both fine. 240 volts going into power supply PCB so I suspect this, especially a capacitor that appears to have...

I have one of these in hand from my old boiler (PCB is new) and I cannot remember the model number of the boiler, although I think it was a 15/30 si (manufactured in 1990). Does anybody know what other models of Apollo Fanfare this PCB fits ? Here is the PCB :

Where exactly do you mean when you mention "the vent" ?

I have a house with 1 upstairs bathroom and a detatched garage. The bathroom has a mixer tap on the sink and also a mixer tap on the bath. The bathroom sink tap also has a non return valve fitted to it. The garage has seperate hot and cold water taps fitted. My problem is that I...

I have been using a 2nd virgin media box upstairs in the bedroom but I have now got rid of it as I bought a 22 inch digital tv with integrated channels. I have bought and tried 2 different aerials and put them the loft but none can get all (or even most) of the freeview channels that are...

Hi Guys, Just has one of these boilers fitted. My room stat is 21 degrees and the boiler set for 60 degrees. The timer is set for twice which just now should be off. My problem is the boiler itself. Whilst the rads are cold, the boiler still seems to be running continously. Is...

fan assembly or fan motor ?

Cheers for the info although £100 repair is not what I wanted to hear. Can you please tell me the exact description of the part you think I require ?

My 15/30 Apollo Fanfare boiler has intermittent problems firing up. It seems to be cos the fan wont work/ is stuck. I have removed the housing, cleaned and lubricated the fan but it still works intermittently. Does the fan need changed or is there a pcb that needs changed or is there a...

how do i/know if the jets are clean ?

I have a B&Q 3 year old whirlpool bath. The problem is that the 6 jets are not as powerful as they where. All 6 jets still work but it is just not as powerful. I suspect something silly but even after cleaning out debris from the plughole, still no difference. Any ideas anybody ?

Despite having a fountain fitted with a filter in my pond (which measures 6' x 3' x 2') I cannot seem to keep the water clear enough to see my goldfish. The water is green in colour but does NOT smell at all. Should the filter be on 24hrs a day ? Is there anything I can do to keep the...

I bought 5 of these "palm trees" last summer and left them in the plantpot they came in over the winter. I did however put them in my garage over the winter to prevent them from the bad frost we get here where I live. I took them out last week and whilst they looked dead, since I have...
