    Dell 1905 recapped- need help with shields

    Greetings,
    I successfully recapped/restored a Dell 1905FP monitor. It failed three weeks ago. I took it apart, found the badcaps site, ordered caps, and just got them installed last night.

    It works now.

    But I have a slight problem- it's been long enough since dis-assembly that I cannot figure out how the two shields were attached to the boards. Anyone have pics with the shields installed? Photo of the shields attached.

    Thanks!

    They look like covers for ccfl wiring /plugs. Or possibly covers for USB ports.
    Post a picture of monitor partially assembled without the back cover on.

    Whatever I do, I consider it a success, if in the end I am breathing, seeing, feeling and hearing!

      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...

      Dell Pro 13 Plus PB13250 Bios Unlock
      by Akhlz001
      Hi,

      Could someone help trying to unlock this BIOS, seems that Dell have changed the layout of new Dell Pro 8FC8 bioses from checking HXD - 4000 bits do not need changing, only 2000. However after FF the section starting from '01000' upto 2000 bits and then soldering the chip back it seems that the microchip on the motherboard is recovering the bios back to original settings after first boot. Has anyone found a way to crack this extra layer of security Dell have implemented? Seems both HP and Dell have upped bios security to match Lenovo by implementing extra measures on a separate...

      The power supply unit is not recognized in the Bios and the charging process is set to "idle". I use original Dell battery, type...
