    19" TV/Monitor seems to over heat

    I repalced a bad cap on a 19" Magnavox last year and it has been working OK up till today. I have been monitoring the heat escaping through the vents on the top on the set for weeks, and to me it was too hot, so I was planning on cutting out a 3" hole on the lower back case and installing a 60mm cooling fan on the back to help the caps cooler.
    Several times last night watching the TV system, the picture started to get blurry and started to cut off. I would let it cool for 15 minutes and it would fire right back up but soon it started acting up again. Today it died after 10 minutes on so I took it apart and placed a fan blowing on the curcuit board.
    It's been on now for 60 minutes with a clearer than ever picture so I decided to share the results with this board.
    Badcaps.com on the PC monitor to the left and the backside of the 19" LCD on the right.
    Great picture now!

    Replace all the caps and you won't need the fan...

    In these, it's never just one cap causing issues.

      Whenever starting a thread try to have the model number in the thread title or at least in the post. This makes it searchable for anyone working on the same set.

          Do you have an ESR meter? The similar Dell's share the same style PSU. I recapped the PSU sans the mains filter and they've been solid. I'd start there and move over to the video board if not corrected. The ESR meter would make this easier.

          Ripple getting to the video board would cause overheating.

            LOL Is that your Panasonic cap on the video board?

              Ripple can be read easy on a multimeter - AC mV scale < ~25 mVAC = Good

                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...

                Philips 243v5lhsb00 Monitor Picture too bright
                by Schwoin
                Hey everyone,

                the picture on my philips monitor looks way too bright so that black appears grey and colors also seem too bright.



                While i tried to tilt the screen a little bit while it was displaying a picture, i´ve noticed, that there appeared some purple pixels. In the following picture
                you can see them on the top half of the photo.



                At a certain point during the tilting, the picture looked normal again but as soon as i laid it back down, the purple pixels were gone and the picture was bright again.

                I need help with my friend Sony GDM-FW900 24” CRT
                by matthewmcconaughey
                Hello, Badcaps is my last resort. I am the first owner of the monitor. I reached almost every repair store in my area, but no one even wanted to hear about troubleshooting an old CRT monitor. At this point, I have been trying to figure it out by myself, but I have no idea where to start or look for.

                I wish to know how to think and locate a failing component. I will put all my efforts to learn and contribute.

                ACER BM320 Monitor - Horizonal Flickering Lines After a While
                by reessi
                Hello,

                The monitor started off showing flickering thin (1 pixel) lines horizontally every say 3mm..

                They are black on the right and gradually fade to nothing on the far left.
                They start either after 5 mins or up to 2 hours after so annoying for testing.
                They flicker continuously very fast! With a slight pause milli-second every second.

                Initially I cleaned the LVDS cable and connected to the T-Con and then it worked fine for 3 weeks but not sure if this was just co-incidence.

                I tested each half by removing the first the left flex from...
