    Acer monitors are notorious for using several different power supplies.
    There is no way anyone can make suggestions without seeing yours.
    Please include some photos of top and bottom of all boards, using the managed attachments feature you will have to resize to a maximum of 2000x2000 pixels Try to get as clear and detailed photo as you can.
    Whatever I do, I consider it a success, if in the end I am breathing, seeing, feeling and hearing!

      I agree. Most likely a 700G(900G in this case) style PSU/Inverter board on the inside. Most of the time there are cap problems only.Follow Alexanna's suggestion (and PlainBill's instructions) and post pics of your boards.

            U106 looks weird on pins 1 and 4, and there's a black blob above it.

              1) If you hookup a working computer to the Acer displaying your favourite wallpaper, can you see it if you shine a flashlight on the lcd?

              2) Check the voltage regulators on the logic board. They are U101 and U102.

              3) When you press the on/off button, what is the voltage on pin 4 on the connector between the power and logic board? Does it change when you presse the on/off button?

                Red herring. U106 contains the firmware. The mark the ICs with colored paint to identify what firmware is on them.

                For a number of reasons, both health and personal, I will no longer be active on this board. Any PMs asking for assistance will be ignored.

                Never be afraid to try something new. Remember, amateurs built the ark. Professionals built the Titanic.

                  Hello,
                  I have the same power board and I am having a hard time getting the schematic for it, I was hoping that you would be kind enough to send the part number information that is stamped on top of IC802.

                  Thanks

                      Hi everyone,

                      I'm working on an Acer Nitro 5 unit with the following specs:
                      • Motherboard: LA-J871P Rev: 1B
                      • Model: Acer AN515-55-59MT

                      Initial Issue


                      The laptop initially presented graphic issues and driver failure (Code 43) for the GPU.

                      After preventive maintenance (cleaning, thermal paste, etc.), it powered on normally. We disassembled it again to inspect the GPU, reassembled...

                      Hi all

                      There's two other threads about this monitor with seemingly the same problem. The problem was resolved in one case by replacing the entire PSU board and in the second one by replacing an unknown IC.

                      The first one has pictures of the pcbs and I noticed that there's one IC and assorted caps not populated on mine (but the PCB itself looks identical) so I thought that'd warrant a new thread.

                      It's my dad's old monitor. He...

                      Problem with LG Plasma 60PM6700 - Random power downs
                      by theone111
                      I have an LG Plasma TV 60PM6700 for the past ~12 years.

                      In the last ~3-4 months I have been having some issues.
                      1. Problem: It started with random picture disappearing (sound still worked).
                        Frequency: Happened about once a week.
                        Solution: Had to turn off TV wait a few seconds before turning it on again.
                      2. Problem: Then it got worse and the TV started to shut down and when turning on the no picture just sound.
                        Frequency: Happened about once a week.
                        Solution: Had to turn off TV wait about 10-20 seconds and turn it on again to solve.
                      3. Problem: TV shuts down
                      ...

                      When I reflash again the bios of hoaca388 the unit powers on and the unit lives!!! Hooray!! All voltage in the coil 3.3v, 5v and 6.7v indicate charging are all present. including the cpu voltage , EEPROM and GPU voltage the unit is now alive, normal screen booting to windows and log in screen until I power it off. Then the unit never goes on even when pressing the power button in the keyboard.. Voltage reading 19v main , 3.3v VCC in IT8225E-128 and EEPROM VCC 0 volt and the charging voltage 0 volt.

                      Try to trace the power switch button goin to the power switch IC PU8803 (APL3533AQBI-TRG)...

                      Please really2 need Help on this Acer A515-52G Motherboard Compal EH5AW LA-G521P Rev: 1A.
                      At first this laptop can on, keyboard light on but no display. Open the motherboard, found out the PQZ3 Mosfet and PUZ3 ic near it burn. Refer picture below. Then I replaced both. All the power rail 3.3,5,1.2, 1.35, 0.8V have power back after i turn on the laptop except for the VCC_GT rail. Voltage at Power Supply showing 0.000A before turn on, after turn on it became 0.5 0.6A. Seem cannot boot and still no display. Then I replaced the PUG1 and mosfet, but the VCC_GT still no power....
