    1) Check all your soldering work especially on the main board. Check to make sure the caps have correct polarity and they are seated firmly.

    2) Reseat and clean all your internal cable connections regardless whether you touched them or not.

    3) What brand and series of caps did you use for replacements?

      Hi - can you explain a bit more - wont get bright is a bit relative - what happens when you adjust contrast/brightness.

      Usually when a screen is dull the whole thing shuts down.
      Have you tried it on a different pc /with a different cable
      or another screen on the pc this is on.
      Is the on screen menu display dull as well.

      Pictures are really what we need so we can see what you mean - we also need pictures of the boards

      pictures of each board, front and back and close up of connectors, (max resolution 2000x2000 and 2MB) using the manage attachments button, which is found by clicking "go advanced" under quick reply.

      Please do not post inline and offsite as they slow down the loading of pages.

      It will be useful if you can say what the supposed fault was and a bit about yourself - skills tools etc.
      Please upload pictures using attachment function when ask for help on the repair
