Hi, I have a problem with my S750 set too. Please help smile.gif

I removed almost all the glue from the main power board (biggest board), but still have following issues:
1. Plug-in all three ribbon cable and the green light is blinking continuesly
2. Remove those 2 green ribbon cables the green light blinking like 3 times and steady, I can even use the remote to power it on, but of course no sound.
3. Plug the gray and one of green ribbon cables SOMETIME (you may call it luck) the green light blinking like 8-10 times and then steady.
4. No visible physical damage can be seen with my noobs eyes.

Each time the green light steady I can use the remote.

Based on that symptoms, what to do with the set?

Very appreciate for your help.

In addition, but before you replace the caps, check each connector, including the main power connector for a bad connection. That may solve the problem, but you will also need to replace the caps

Thanks for the answer, I'll repace those bad caps soon as possible. Sadly for the caps digikey part no: P11613-ND is no longer available, which is the best alternative for it? Including the exact part no if possible. Thank you.

Guys, I'm on a short budget to repair my S750. Buying those caps from Mouser/Digi too expensive for me for its $70+ shipping fare. Do you know a good seller which selling those genuine branded caps on AliExpress? I can't distinguish it at all. Any advice? Thank You!
