    Dell E177FPv - Repair / Help

    Hey Guys

    This is my first topic
    I am glad to be here ...

    Right, I got a Dell E177FPv, which did not power up at all.
    In that case, I opened it up and replaced two bad capacitors

    CapXon 1000uF 10v P610 VENT GL 105C replaced with 1000uf 16v

    This is the outcome after replacement:

    (i know it is bad)


    Now, the monitor starts but disturbing images appear.
    See the images below/attached:





    Info - by taking the images ... monitor now showing black only!!


    Question: Is this because of my bad soldering or cos of something else ?!

    UPDATE:

    woooooooooooooohhh!!

    It is working now looooooooool
    I guess, cos the monitor has been off/broken for so long
    and it took bit of time till the transistor to load up properly (I assume)

    Nice one it seems to be working now
    not sure why it was showing bad display before but yeh

        That is the LVDS ribbon cable to the T-CON board on the LCD panel assembly, very fragile connector. You already try re-seating both ends?
        The board you replaced the cap is the combo power supply-inverter board.

          Yeh that ribbon seems to be very very sensitive ...
          it is also bit tricky to get it off and back on lol

            Seeking Advice: Repairing Dell U3425WE Monitor with Faulty USB-C/Thunderbolt Ports
            by Borse2008
            Hi everyone,

            Looking for some advice or opinions on what to do with a monitor issue I’ve run into. Apologies in advance is this crossovers a few forum categories.

            I have a Dell U3425WE, which I've recently replaced with another model. That said, the original unit is still fully functional in terms of the display — it works perfectly over HDMI and DisplayPort. However, the USB-C and Thunderbolt 4 ports have stopped functioning correctly. The Issue:
            • The 90W Thunderbolt 4 port (circled in the photo) no longer charges or powers any device, including laptops or MacBooks.
            • There’s
            ...

            Dell E6400 PT434 type Battery Charging Stuck at 1%. Battery Pinouts?
            by Bowline
            My question pertains to understanding the control circuity inside a Dell PT434 type battery used in Dell E6400, E6410 and other Dell notebooks?

            Does anyone have a circuit diagram for the inside of a Dell PT434 battery and/or a description of how the control lines work to control this battery?

            My reason for asking is I have a battery which I cannot get to charge beyond 1% in a Dell E6410 or E6400.
            The LED bar graph charge indicator on the battery shows one LED lighted when the info button is pressed.
            I have tried multiple different Dell power adapters. My Dell...

            Guide me through repairing a Dell p2210f LCD ccfl backlight monitor
            by DanPoka
            I bought this p2210f dell monitor to fix. Schematic is the same as p2210.
            Behaviour is that monitors comes on but then backlight switches off almost instantly. If I look with flashlight I can still find the "No signal message". So definitely a backlight issue. Trying to advance the issue I proved that the protection circuit is switching off the backlight by shorting out C3 and resistor to disable the INL chip then re enable by removing the short.
            This is where it gets interesting. When I disassembled the monitor to solder leads on c3 capacitor I noticed the backlight flickered...

            HannStar Hanns-G HC194d LCD monitor repair
            by momaka
            Normally, I never post repairs this quick after I do them, because… I am usually very slow. But today, I’m making an exception here. Why? No idea. Perhaps only because the repair details are still “fresh” in my head… which is ironic, given this is a 16 year old monitor that hardly anyone will care about today. It is new to me, though. I picked it up last November from someone on my local Craigslist. It wasn’t very close to where I live, but was close to a family friend that I had to go visit anyways. So after watching the posting on Craigslist for a few weeks and seeing it getting...

            Issues Reviving Old Dell 2408WFPb Monitor
            by Jesus Coder
            Hello everyone,

            I have been having some difficulties reviving an old Dell 2408WFPb PC monitor that I received for free. When I first acquired it, the backlights of the display were on but alas no image was showing. After extensive research on the topic, I went ahead and purchased a new t-con board for the monitor. After installing the board, I was then presented with a new screen that was half black and half green (more so black). I have been unable to figure out what to do next as I have limited knowledge of display electronics. Might anyone on this forum have an idea of what may...
