    ASUS VH222H No Power, No bad caps

    I have an ASUS VH222H. When plugged in there is no activity on the power LED. It doesn't light up at all. Because the monitor doesn't turn on, well, there is nothing on the screen. None of the capacitors are blown. I'm not really sure what needs to be fixed on the Power Board now. Any ideas?

    Yeah, the picture quality would have been better if you waited until the sun is overhead. Still, they are good enough.


    1. Disconnect the cable running to the signal card.

    2. Fasten the power supply in place temporarily with at least two screws, one of which is through the grounding clip I circled in black.

    3. Plug in the AC power cord.

    4. Set your DMM to the 1000V DC scale and measure the voltage across the pins of the large cap (circled in red). Report that voltage.

    5. If the voltage measured above is about 1.4 x line voltage, the fuse is good.

    6. Set your DMM to the 20 VDC range and measure the voltage on each pin of the output connector. Use the mounting screw circled in black as the ground point. Report those voltages

    If you read 5V on any of the pins of the output connector attach a picture of the signal card to your next post.

        What parts would I need to replace if I didn't test? My multimeter doesn't have the 1000V DC setting.

          If your mains input is 110v then you are looking at measuring 165v DC across the Cap..if your mains is 240v then you want about 365 v DC.Nobody can tell you what parts to change if you do not do the tests,we don't have a Crystal Ball !!!

            Alright. I had plugged the monitor in like he said with the 2 screws. The power board started to spark. Should I still test, or could I get shocked or something?

              Provide a picture showing where it sparked.

                It was near the power adapter plug-in, but I am not totally positive.

                  Asus Probook P5440UF-XB74 power issue
                  by GLISIT
                  Hi all,

                  TL;DR - this laptop is driving me nuts with the oddball power-related behaviors. Appreciate any insight you can provide!


                  I'm experiencing a power issue on an Asus Probook P5440UF-XB74. Although I've worked with electronics and computers for decades, this is my first attempt at getting into motherboard-level component troubleshooting. Any help the community can provide is greatly appreciated!

                  A few weeks ago I was using the laptop (on battery power) for a Zoom meeting. The battery was running very low (long meeting) but I wasn't worried about...

                  Vizio e601i-A3 - Has Sound and Display, But No Backlight - Bad Power Supply Board or Bad LED Bulbs ?
                  by Tynan Dill
                  I was given this TV from my great uncle. He said it just wouldn't turn on one day out of nowhere, replaced the TV, and gave it to me to possibly fix and use for myself.

                  Upon bringing it home and plugging it up, it showed a standby light.

                  I powered it on and without a flashlight, the display showed the "V" but the lighting is very dim, but visible.

                  The screen seems to blackout and stay black, but with a flashlight I can see the display.

                  With my Playstation 4 connected via HDMI, and running a game I can hear sound.

                  Assuming...

                  Microsoft Surface Pro (5th gen) model 1796 - no power
                  by PantherDave
                  Hi all!

                  I'm trying to troubleshoot a Microsoft Surface Pro (5th gen) model 1796 that won't power on. Motherboard model is M1007506-015. My priority is retrieving data, but the SSD is integrated so it looks like if I can't repair it it'll need to go to a data recovery company. I've done a little basic board repair before, but nothing this advanced until now. So please forgive my ignorance in advance. 😅

                  I found the boardview for this laptop in the forums here, and am able to open it on my PC with FlexBV.

                  Asus laptop won't boot (no power) - possible bad caps?
                  by jrodefeld
                  I would like to see if anyone could help me salvage a very expensive laptop that is no longer working.






                  The model:
                  Asus Zenbook Pro Duo UX582L

                  I have used this laptop lightly since I purchased it new in 2022. I have always taken precautions to take care of it the best I could, and have never done anything that would risk causing damage to it or shorten it's life.

                  However, around six months ago, the laptop stopped working on battery power. It continued to work fine when plugged in, but as soon as power was disconnected,...

                  ASUS TUF X570-PLUS doesn't power on: no VRM_EN signal.
                  by ShadowAi
                  Hello, I have an issue with the motherboard. Specifically, it doesn't power on, more precisely, the POST initialization doesn't occur.

                  Let me start from the beginning, the motherboard suddenly stopped working one day. There are no beep signals from the speaker, and the debug LEDs are not lighting up. After inspecting it under a microscope and using thermal imaging, I didn't find anything that could be damaged.

                  After that, I began voltage measurements, in which I noticed the absence of VDDQ, VDDP, VTT, and VPP lines. Later, I checked if there is an EN state on these lines,...
