I fixed my broken Turbo Express!

A huge thanks goes out to nat on the pcenginefx.com forums for finding the capacitor that is the cause for no video with backlight problem that has happened to a lot of TurboExpresses that suffer from capacitor plague.

Last night I was able to remove the faulty capacitor and replace it with a new one. My Turbo Express is now working great! I had about a year ago replaced one of the 3 audio circuit capacitors to restore sound, but I will be replacing them too. I have to decide if I am going to replace all of the capacitors in the TurboExpress, or just wait for the next malfunction. It think it is probably best to wait.
