All You Need To Know About CAPACITORS To Fix Stuff! LER #182

LER #182 This is the 2st video in a new series looking at common components and circuits, from the perspective of a repair hobbyist / technician. All you need to know about CAPACITORS to fix stuff. In each video I hope to teach you all you need to know about the most common way in which components and circuits fail, and how to test and diagnose these faults. I try to keep each video to around 30 mins or less , but capacitors is a bigger topic than most so the essentials ran to about 1 hour. Of course I will still be making the regular repair videos this channel is getting well known for.
