    dell se198wfpf repair

    Hello

    I have a monitor that recently blew up when plugged in.
    There was a pop and then then wonderful smell.

    Upon opening the case and removing the board, there is zero visible damage.
    I suspect the fuse blew.
    Does anyone have a quick fix or possible ideas for fixing this.
    I live in a tiny town- and I can guarantee I will not be able to source parts here.
    I will probably need to order parts.
    The search yielded results, but all posts contained boards that had visible damage. I see nothing.
    The monitor is dead - without any sign of life whatsoever.
    Thank you

    1) A good fuse should measure less than 1.0 ohms.
    2) Check your bridge rectifier for shorts.
    3) Check your power mosfet for shorts.
    4) If you don't know what #2 and #3 are, post a picture of your board following the instructions below exactly.

    #2 and #3 are the most likely candidates to take out the fuse.

    If you wrote in that style above, I would not taken the time to answer. Many others here would have done the same and moved onto the next thread. This is not twitter or some phone text forum.

    And NO, I'm not grumpy or an English major, but think, garbage in, garbage out.

          that would have simply been deleted....because not only does it make you look like a tard that shouldn't be working on electronics, it drops the overall IQ of the forum a few points.... Seriously? You type like that? That may be the cool thing to do on facebook or some other teenage hangout....but anywhere else in the world, its just laughable gibberish.
