    Re: Hanns-G HG281D, LCD Monitor no power

    OK. I've just found 3 dry caps (C603,606 and 707). Going to buy repair kit and replace all of them. Thanks to every body for your support.

      Make sure your kit includes ALL the caps. I've seen some kits that leave out the small caps.

          Let us know if new caps solve the problem or not.

              Just repaired my Hanns-G HG281D, LCD Monitor. Replacing 3 dry caps (C603,606 and 707 & couple more small one) returned monitor back to normal life. Thanks to every one for help and support. Best regards.

                Good work. Saving a 28 inch monitor from the landfill is a good feeling.

                  Re: Hanns-G HG281D, LCD Monitor no power

                  I have a problem with this monitor where it takes about 50 tries to get it to turn on. Once it is on everything works perfectly. Is there a good way to test the power supply board? I would like to plug in the AC power and turn on the board without using the monitor's power button. I see that in the back there's a printout that says PSON so I wonder if I can use that some how to turn the board on. Let me know of any suggestion. Thanks.

                      Perhaps a little more detail would help. Do you have to hit the power button on the monitor repeatedly to get it to turn on, or does the problem occur when you apply AC power?

                      The power supply in this monitor is a dual design - the standby section of the monitor is always on and takes only a few watts (possibly less than 1 watt). The main section is switched on only when it is active and draws most of the power.

                      The symptoms you describe sound like bad capacitors, and the layout of the power supply looks like it was designed to kill caps!!

                          Yes the switch has been physically checked. It seems to open and close just fine using an ohm meter. According to this post, it seems that the problem is most likely due to the power supply board. If I unplug the AC cord and replug it into the wall, it seems like it has a better chance of turning on than me just repeatedly hitting the power switch. I will take some photos once I am home from work.

                            The monitor can sometime turn itself on right when I plug in the AC power. Then sometimes it can turn on when I try to press the power button repeatedly. Once I can turn it on, I can turn it off and on for about 5 times consecutively before it stops responding.

                              My initial guess is the startup capacitor is acting up. It's under that metal cover. Can you remove it and retake the photo?

                                Like the OP, all his caps looked good (no bloating), but after testing with an ESR meter, he found 3 dry caps and proceeded to switch them all out and save a 28 inch monitor.

                                If you have a multimeter, see if you get stable 5V STB DC (details in previous posts).

                                  As is common for larger monitors, there is a PFC front end on this power supply. MORE complication. I would agree with retiredcaps. Do replace all electrolytics, especially the tiny ones.

                                    I think I will try to check the caps first with the ESR meter since I have to desolder this cap in order to remove that metal cover. I dont have a soldering iron with me atm.

                                      Hi there,
                                      Just to add my 2 cents, I had a dead Hanns-G HG281D too, and after following the advice and info here I managed to get this dead monitor working again.
                                      There were 3 dry caps that were measuring low/incorrect capacitance once removed from the power supply, which were C603,606 and 707 also found by Mishannya. (these caps did not look puffy or leak either on inspection)

                                      Many thanks to this great site!

                                        I'm in the process of recapping the power board on my HG281D as well. Ordered the caps from Digi-key, on their way now.

                                        Mine turns on for a while (15 mins or so) then shuts off. I can turn it on again and same thing happens except it shuts off within ~10-20 secs.

                                        My power board looks different than yours and has a manufactured date of May 2009. Here is a pic with cap values:

                                          Mine turns on for a while (15 mins or so) then shuts off. I can turn it on again and same thing happens except it shuts off within ~10-20 secs.

                                          My power board looks different than yours and has a manufactured date of May 2009. Here is a pic with cap values:

                                          Your monitor is under 2 years old. Isn't it still under warranty? It would be suprising if the cap(s) failed that quickly.

                                            I was given this TV from my great uncle. He said it just wouldn't turn on one day out of nowhere, replaced the TV, and gave it to me to possibly fix and use for myself.

                                            Upon bringing it home and plugging it up, it showed a standby light.

                                            I powered it on and without a flashlight, the display showed the "V" but the lighting is very dim, but visible.

                                            The screen seems to blackout and stay black, but with a flashlight I can see the display.

                                            With my Playstation 4 connected via HDMI, and running a game I can hear sound.

                                            Hi all!

                                            I'm trying to troubleshoot a Microsoft Surface Pro (5th gen) model 1796 that won't power on. Motherboard model is M1007506-015. My priority is retrieving data, but the SSD is integrated so it looks like if I can't repair it it'll need to go to a data recovery company. I've done a little basic board repair before, but nothing this advanced until now. So please forgive my ignorance in advance. 😅

                                            I found the boardview for this laptop in the forums here, and am able to open it on my PC with FlexBV.

                                            Hi all,

                                            TL;DR - this laptop is driving me nuts with the oddball power-related behaviors. Appreciate any insight you can provide!


                                            I'm experiencing a power issue on an Asus Probook P5440UF-XB74. Although I've worked with electronics and computers for decades, this is my first attempt at getting into motherboard-level component troubleshooting. Any help the community can provide is greatly appreciated!

                                            A few weeks ago I was using the laptop (on battery power) for a Zoom meeting. The battery was running very low (long meeting) but I wasn't worried about...

                                            Desoldering gun station modified to use a 18 volt @ 20 amp switching power supply

                                            I have wanting to do this project for quite sometime now and I finally found a switching power supply that will work on this desoldering gun station ZD-915 that the original switching power supply took a shit and just was not worth trying to fix it because this switching power is not quite big enough to handle the heater element and the vacuum pump

                                            One note when I tested the switching power supply and the voltage control board I noticed that this desoldering gun heat up much faster than the original switching power supply which I was really surprised by to the point that I might buy...

                                            Hi, i was given this lcd monitor last week with the issue of power led blinking. Upon checking the power board, i found 2 pieces electrolytic caps bulged and replaced them.
                                            Later, when i switched on ac power and detected 5v and 15v dc at output pins. But as soon as i pressed on the front power button, the led on power button lights for 1 second and it turns off.

                                            So, i tried disconnect the flex ribbon cable from t con board. But all i got is a white screen with nothing on. I suspect there is something short somewhere that prevent the display being turned on. Can someone with...
