Got this one from work, No backlight at all. Aside from two bloaded 220uf/25V OST caps, there's also this very well done (probably past overdone) R1. Anyone that worked on one of these monitors know the value of this resistor?

Green fuse tests out alright.
Haven't removed it from circuit yet, but in-circuit I am getting 8.2k. Page you linked lists that as a 10 ohm resistor, so safe to say it's open since I'm getting 8.2k across itLast edited by Hemingray; 04-19-2015, 05:08 PM.

That I think is X1 that cooked.Don't buy those $10 PSU "specials". They fail, and they have taken whole computers with them.
My computer doubles as a space heater.

At least that resistor cooked and cut the circuit power before anything else got cooked. Just be glad that was the only thing besides those caps that went.Don't buy those $10 PSU "specials". They fail, and they have taken whole computers with them.
