    Help Salvaging Speakers from LCD Monitor

    My LCD went out on my old (2002) monitor. The speakers still function. I hooked up sound to it & was delighted to see that I could still use it, but that was short lived. Evidently, it senses that no monitor is connected, and it powers the board down.

    Is there a clever (or not clever) way that I can trick it into staying on permanently?

    I've found the speakers on pretty much all monitors suck...

    Anyway, take a better photograph of the lower left hand corner with the audio circuitry, you'll have to either override power to the amplifier somehow...

      The IC is TDA7496L: https://www.alldatasheet.com/datashe.../TDA7496L.html

      When I press the power button, the monitor turns on. It turns off after roughly 5 seconds since no active VGA signal is detected. I can not figure out how to tell the audio portion not to go into standby mode.

        AOC AG493UCX 49-inch monitor - Firmware request
        by wattage
        Hello Badcaps Community,

        I purchased a preowned AOC monitor that is not working and out of warranty. It was sold as not working. I am looking for guidance on self-repair. In particular, I am after the firmware for the monitor. At the end, I have included monitor model information and links to pics and vids of the issue.

        The problem is that it will not display a picture on any of its inputs. And the on-screen menu does not appear. The power button works properly. It powers on with the remote as well. But the on-screen menu does not appear, even when not connected to any...

        Hi Everyone

        The monitor will randomly blackout and display no signal and will recover again.

        LG 23MP55HQ LED Monitor turns off after a few seconds or flickers.
        by Rick_1234
        Good evening, gentlemen.

        I have a problem with my monitor. It turns off after a few seconds or flickers. Shining a flashlight on the screen doesn't show any image, so I guess it's not the "2 seconds to dark" I read in the forum.

        To turn it back on, I have to press the power button twice. Then after a few seconds it turns off again or flickers. See video.

        Philips F9217L-50R speakers – build quality impressions and DIY surround repair
        by momaka
        More Lo-Fi speakers and another DIY surround repair. The patient this time: a pair of Philips F9217L-50R speakers from a budget Philips rack/component system from the '80's. The system belongs to my brother in-law… or actually his parents. However, they didn't want it when they moved houses and he liked it anyways, so he ended up keeping it. It's a pretty cool-looking vintage system with a wood/veneer cabinet and shelves for records and cassettes. Unfortunately, I didn't get a chance to take a picture of it or get the model #'s (but maybe next time I visit, if anyone is curious?)

        Wise Wing F199 19'' LCD monitor - recapped
        by momaka
        Looking through my repair pictures and notes, it's been a long time since I posted anything in the LCD monitors section. So here goes that.

        I'm dedicating this thread to one of the very first LCD monitors I repaired (if not the first one), which was more than 10 years ago now. The monitor is a Wise Wing, model F199. It's a 19” CFL-backlit LCD. I got it for free off of Craigslist in 2009 from a guy, who said he bought it for cheap from Wallmart and the monitor worked only for a little less than 2 years before quitting.

        When I saw the Craigslist post, I wasn't...
