    I believe they are refering to the 2 transistors in red. They should be checked first for possible shorts and if one is bad, then both should be replaced.

            Since this thread is so small, it's not going to hurt responding to it. However, be advised that companies like Viewsonic and Acer are notorious for using several different power boards for the same model monitor. As poor as the existing photos are, try comparing your power board to the photos. If yours looks different, it's a good time to open a new thread. Additionally, if the transistors check good, then it would be good to post some good clear photos of your board, so members can suggest components for you to test.

                Hey alebar1..
                Please do not attempt to fix the transistors if you arent skilled with a solderingiron.. That thing was HARD to remove and replace.. You also would need 9973gh transistor(s).. They were hard to find as well.. But, before all that, make sure ur caps are good.. and follow the advice of these guys here.. They are awsome!!

                                    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...

                                    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

                                    Lately I am experiencing the deja-vu incident on one of the led monitor like this.

                                    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.

                                    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.

                                    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...
