    245BW, can't find problem. No 24 or 6.3V, standby is good.

    Power light comes on but I'm getting nothing on the 24v or 6.3v outputs from the power supply.

    The only lead I have is the large cap "CP801" which says "450WV 82Uf" on it but only gives out 173V's. Someone told me this is normal but I'm not sure if I should trust them.

    Model # on the board is: BN44-00195A

    There are several other threads on this monitor / power supply. This sounds like a common problem - something about three resistors that often fail.

      The 3 resistor failure problem only applies to the BN44-00173A model power supply. Your model supply is different (BN44-00195A). Please post some good focused photos of the top and bottom of the entire power supply per PlainBill's links.

        All the regular cap's have been replaced, I checked all the resistors for continuity, fuses are good.

          In the future, please attach the photos using 'Manage Attachments' - below the text entry area. If additional pictures become necessary, it is best if they are as close to 2000 x 2000 pixels as possible (without going over). Here's why:

          1. On the top view I see a cap that looks suspiciously like it is bulging. I think I can see the identifier, but can't read it. The best I can do is say it is directly above the 'A' in BN44-0195A.

          2. Above that cap is an 8 pin IC. Again, while I can see the identifier, but can't read it. That is the SMPS controller. What is the part number?

          3. To the right of the board number are a pair of connectors. I can see labels indicating the function of the pins, but again, they are unreadable. One of the pins may be labeled 5V Stby, or something like that. What is the voltage on that pin?

            Well if I had a better camera maybe...

            1: Cap is just fine, and it's new.

            3: Mistake in the thread title, 6.3V should be 5.4V. There is nothing coming out of it.

              ^ Good lighting and a very steady hand works wonders.
              Go advanced on your Post,and you will see the option.
              Maximum dimensions allowed are 2000x2000 pixels so you will have to resize the pictures.
              Whatever I do, I consider it a success, if in the end I am breathing, seeing, feeling and hearing!

                  You can do what you have done, it just means the information transfer is a bit slower. The sketch gives me the information I needed, your note adds more, and the IC is an Allegro MicroSystems STR-A6159. It's an combination SMPS controller and power FET in one package. The datasheet of that IC is here.

                  From the datasheet, pin 3 is Ground, pin 2 is Vcc. With power on, CAREFULLY measure the voltage from pin 3 to pins 1, 2, 4, and 5. Do NOT measure the voltage on pins 7 or 8; if the IC is working it could destroy your DMM.

                  Oops, almost forgot. In the picture, the pins are numbered counterclockwise, starting at the lower left.

                      Pin 2 is the key. The SMPS controller won't start until it reaches 17.5 volts. On similar ICs, the solution has been to replace the SMPS controller. You might wish to first check the capacitor connected to pin 2.

                        Well where the heck do I get a new one?

                        EDIT: Measured what I think is the correct cap with it powered on and it was giving out 0.01V's. Could you circle the cap that I should be measuring in the picture?

                          Available from this firm. I'm not familiar with the firm,and the price seems somewhat high. I found it by Googleing buy STR-A6159.

                          The picture of the bottom wasn't good enough to allow me to positively identify the startup cap. The cap circled in blue is the primary suspect. The ones circled in yellow are also possibilities.

                            B&D is fine. Used them for TV parts in the past.

                            Everybody else has the part cheaper, but no stock...

                            Newark has them for 92¢ each if you buy 1000

                            If you replaced all the caps in that area as you said, what brand and series did you use?
                            i.e.- Radio Shack caps are not acceptable.

                            Trace the power supply circuit to that chips input (Pin 2) as PlainBill noted.

                            A closer, better lit picture of the back of the board (mind the glare) of the upper left which is the area of interest. Essentially (from your current photo) above the horizontal black line and the left of the vertical black line/slots.

                              Sorry I didn't want to upload it here because I would have to make it smaller. Ignore what looks like a really bad solder job I fixed it and it looks a lot better in person. I wasn't the one that replaced the caps.

                                    The -file- size is the limit. Your pic is only 140kb. The forum limit is 1.9Mb for .jpeg and 3.8Mb for .jpg (there's a difference?).

                                    The pixel size limit is requested to be no greater than 2000 x 2000 pixels. The forum auto-resizes it when you post it inline so it doesn't FUBAR all the pages. Posting it as an attachment doesn't screw with people who have limited bandwidth and speed. It allows them to -choose- to see the big pictures, one at a time, not have the forum "shove them all down their throats".

                                    Posting it on the site preserves it for eternity (LOL!) in our server. ImageShack and the like sometimes delete the pics or the account and then it's lost to anyone looking for info here in the future.

                                    It may have failed because edit time expired (30 minutes, IIRC).

                                      Re: 245BW, can't find problem. No 24 or 6.3V, standby is good.

                                      That cap circled in blue, it MIGHT be bad? I can't get more then 0.07V's from it. It also has some clear goo on the top that I thought was just hot glue but maybe I am wrong?

                                      EDIT: You know what, I'm an idiot. The more I think about it I realize that can't be hot glue. I will go down to radio shack tomorrow and see if they have anything.

                                      I can go higher in the uf rating right?

                                      EDIT 2: Screw it I will just order from Digikey, I need a DVI cable too and don't wanna pay $30 for one.

                                        Nope it still doesn't work, I refuse to pay $10 for a single IC. >:|

                                        Especially when it's not guaranteed to be the problem.

                                          Sentey ATX PSU - ERP650-PS - Trying to find out the right Standby IC
                                          by temyth
                                          Greetings! I have this ERP650-PS atx power supply, it is a relatively simple psu, the primary has a driver IC that controls the two main mosfets (two 20n60S5), together with a Classic Standby circuit with a PWM IC (not a FET like the VIper22A) , relatively similar to the SDC606P.

                                          The whole point is that I got this power supply years ago when I had no knowledge, apparently the PWM IC was burned because someone turned the power supply on with the switch at 110v in a 220v network (classic error). Important detail: the power supply at the time came without the primary capacitors.

                                          of course before jumping to conclusion and connected to DFU , i believe i done basic checks...

                                          Yamaha TSX 120 Standby Problem
                                          by psssst
                                          Hello forum. I've recently been given a Yamaha TSX 120 DAB radio and ipod dock. Its working well however when put on standby its using 6.3 watts. The manual states less than 1 watt on standby. I measured this with a plug in monitor which seems accurate with other items. In use it uses around 7.5 watts. Firstly has anyone who owns a similar radio also got a plug in monitor to check if this is normal with this unit? In the first half a second the monitor shows 0.3 watts which I suspect is what it should use but something is switching it to be almost fully powered. I've searched the manual for eco...

                                          UN65MU6300FXZC, no standby LED but power supply good. Bad IC1604 25Q40?

                                          Hi all,

                                          My UN65MU6300FXZC is dead and the standby LED stays off. The power supply is good. The main board is BN94-12434A.

                                          Disconnecting the main board from the power supply makes the backlight come ON.

                                          I did disconnect the panel cables and the WIFI modules, the board is still dead.

                                          I did read in many posts that IC1604 25Q40 becomes corrupted. It has proper 3.3 volt on VCC pin 8. I did read that if I post its dump here someone can fix it. Is that right?

                                          Thanks.

                                          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.
