I went off the fact that my symptom was the same as this, turn on, less than a second turn off. When I opened the unit it wasn't easy to tell if the capacitor was defective. Looked slightly bulged but nothing obvious. Regardless I went off to the electronics store and a few hours later I had removed the old one, replaced with a 0.6c part and to my amazement, it worked first go when I stitched it all back together.
Just dropping by to say thanks to the poster in this thread that gave the instructions. Saved me a couple of hundred having to buy a new soundbar. I also learned about soldering at the same time. #winning.
Hey, I’ve just done it and it worked!
Thanks for sharing!
This definitely works, my sound bar would switch on only after several attempts and stayed on ok. I gave this a try and swapped out the C914 capacitor which looked in good condition with no bulging on the top.
Once I had replaced it and put it all back together, the sound bar turns on straight away and no issues.
Thanks for the excellent solution to this problem, another sound bar is saved 👍
I have the same problem I see c914 is bulging but also at C619 and C626 also would you have the values for them Tnx
