Hello. I'm new in the forum and I would like to ask your help.
I've got a Samsung 172n monitor at a thrift store and I'm trying to fix it. The symptom is this - I turn it on the power LED turns on, keeps on a little bit, and turns off. There is no signal of any activity whatsoever. The power board looks ok, there is no signs of overheating or burned parts. The electrolytic capacitors were not bulging, but I changed them all anyway. That made no difference. I checked the voltages at the cable that goes to the main board and the 13v and 5v are there and are steady. So, I got to the conclusion that the power source part of the board is ok and the problem is in the inverter part. Then I checked the voltages on the inverter main IC and everything is almost at zero v. I've changed the IC and 2 transistors in the line that provides the DC to the IC, as well as a diode. That made no difference either.
The part number of the power board is BN44-00092A. Does any of you have the schematics? l've searched a lot for it, but I could not find it on the internet so far. What I found is the schematics of the model BN44-00082A, which is somewhat similar, but not totally. So, without the right schematics I am trying some things, but I'm not totally sure about what I'm doing.
Another doubt I have is this - what is the voltage I would have to expect on the on/off pin? That comes from the main board and seems to be almost zero as well. Does that indicate the problem may be in the main PCB?
I understand a little bit of electronics, but I'm not familiar with this type of power source.
Any ideas? Help would be appreciated..
