Re: Samsung Syncmaster 171s and 151s
1) Post clear focused pictures after reading
https://www.badcaps.net/forum/showthread.php?t=1868
2) Please do not post pictures inline as they slow down the loading of pages.
3) For best picture quality and clarity take your boards to a window on a sunny day, turn flash off, and use macro mode. Take a top down view of all your boards (front and back). Make sure the photo is legible so that we can read the PCB printing clearly. A shutter speed of 1/125 or faster will produce nice clear focused pictures. Try to get a photo that is 2000x2000 resolution or as close as possible.
4) Here is an example of the pictures we want.

5) Do you have a multimeter?
6) Pick ONE (1) monitor to work on first otherwise people will get confused trying to help solve both monitors in one thread.--- begin sig file ---

Re: Samsung Syncmaster 171s and 151s
That PSU Board looks very similar (if not identical) to my 151BM's one.
Have you checked both primary fuses? (the black cylinders next to the AC socket)
It also looks like it got pretty damn hot in there. So even if the fuses check out fine, the caps may be baked dry. if the startup cap(s) are affected (the 2 tiny ones pretty much in the center), it would prevent the PSU from starting up..

Re: Samsung Syncmaster 171s and 151s
On the power board, measure the DC voltage on all the pins on connector CN2. Post the results.
If you are not familiar with how to properly use a multimeter, please say so and we can provide instructions.--- begin sig file ---

Re: Samsung Syncmaster 171s and 151s
Okay, that makes sense. I wasn't sure what he meant by the "the 2 small ones".
And for all the newbies reading, this is ANOTHER reason why we always ask for pictures of YOUR board. Scenic noticed that from the pictures that heat discolors the board pretty good. If you use generic pictures or someone else's pictures, Scenic would have never noticed that and which led to the suggestion about the small startup caps.Last edited by retiredcaps; 02-18-2011, 02:26 PM.--- begin sig file ---

Hi folks,
I'm new here and was wondering whether you might be kind enough to give me some advice on troubleshooting the following problem:
Quite a few years ago now, a couple of years from new, my Samsung Syncmaster 740BF LCD monitor starting playing up by making a buzzing noise and then the display would go blank. I seem to remember the blue power led would also go off when this happened but that I'm not 100% sure of. By pressing the power button I do remember I could at first get it working again but eventually the problem would come back. At the time I had read about... -
