    HP w1907 2 seconds to black

    Got this from a co-worker today. Board appears to be the same layout, and model and revision numbers as the board in the first post in this thread: https://www.badcaps.net/forum/showthread.php?t=9864

    2 seconds to black, with the LCD panel working. (Picture visible in bright light.)

    Caps are different brands, but none are swollen, and ESR looks to at least be in the ballpark.

    Checking with 2 known CCFLs has no change in behavior. Checking the two transformers by the CCFL sockets results in the same readings on both of them, EXCEPT for pins 7 and 8. On T502, I get 620Ω. On T501, I get 38000Ω!

    Reflowed the solder on those pins for both transformers and the resistance is the same.

    Tentative diagnosis, order replacement transformer, replace and test again.

    I found this on Ebay http://cgi.ebay.com/SPW-068-TRANSFOR...-/150490319780

    Price seems ok, but I'm not too happy about the 10-20 days shipping time.

    I'm also going to reflow any suspicious looking solder connections before I put it back together.

    Any suggestions, or does this seem like the right course of action?

    Sounds like you did a great job diagnosing everything.

      It's not that much of a difference: I don't think that would be the problem ..

        Dell u2311h 20000 seconds to black issue
        by ChIck3n
        So I've had this monitor for probably a decade now, and it's finally starting to fail. Began with a little sporadic flickering, then eventually started going black (power LED stays blue, can still see image on screen with flashlight). A power on/off fixes it for a bit, but then it happens again. Once it got to the point I was dealing with this every few minutes, I opened it up and just replaced all the caps (minus the big one) on the power board with new Panasonic ones. All the old caps tested fine on an ESR meter, and this worked for 5 days. But the screen just went black again today, so...

        LG 37LG5020 and the tale of 2 seconds to black.
        by DrankinSAW
        I bought an LG 37LG5020 with a very strange issue.. it turns on, the display looks fine, but still, after 2 seconds, the TV shuts the backlight off..

        However, if i leave it plugged in for 20-40min.. the time it takes to shutdown the backlight, doubles (to 4 seconds)..

        I bought a new inverter, set to arrive on December 13th
