    I don't know why you're having so much trouble with that clip, it's not at all complicated. It has a locking tab right above the power socket... press that tab inward (or more like 45 degrees inward/upward), and it'll pop right out.
    I was too afraid of breaking something...

    I have attached the pictures of the power supply board

      I also remember reading something along the lines that it warms up the soldering and things fall back into place, but I may be wrong.

      Just wanted to try... anyway, now that I have access to power supply board, what tests can I do with multimeter?

        before you give any directions, please keep in mind that so far I have done things like measured voltage of batteries with multimeter... so I am such a noob!

          With a hair dryer, blow some hot hair while the monitor is on and blinking thru the ventilation slots until the monitor comes back to life...it will remain on until turned off again.
          Wow, that's the biggest load of complete and utter bullshit I've read in quite some time.

            1st, I'd measure the fuse. Power disconnected, meter on the low ohms range.
            Post what your reading is when you just connect the meter leads together, should be 0 ish, then post the reading of the fuse.
            After that we'll need better photos of the devices on the heat sinks, and their part numbers.

                When you heat up bad cap with high ESR, the ESR will go down. Hair dryer is one of my tools that I use for troubleshooting in the last 30 years.

                  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...

                  Desoldering gun station modified to use a 18 volt @ 20 amp switching power supply
                  by sam_sam_sam
                  I have wanting to do this project for quite sometime now and I finally found a switching power supply that will work on this desoldering gun station ZD-915 that the original switching power supply took a shit and just was not worth trying to fix it because this switching power is not quite big enough to handle the heater element and the vacuum pump

                  One note when I tested the switching power supply and the voltage control board I noticed that this desoldering gun heat up much faster than the original switching power supply which I was really surprised by to the point that I might buy...

                  Modification to a ZD-987 desoldering/soldering station using a external switching power supply
                  by sam_sam_sam
                  I have been working on this concept for quite some time now with limited success but recently I found a switching power supply that is setup for the voltage that this soldering station needs to operate at however it also needs part of the secondary circuit from the original switching power because you need several voltage rails

                  I once tried to get a ZD-915 desoldering station to work on a 18 volt battery power supply but unfortunately things did not go well but I did find a work around but I might try this idea again but going at a little differently more about this another time...

                  Definitive technology SC 2000 subwoofer amp's power supply clicking and popping
                  by JimBanville
                  The sub developed a constant popping every couple seconds from woofer and power LED flickering with nothing but wall AC connected. Connecting an audio cable didn't change anything. It doesn't play but a second or two of audio in between the pops.
                  Opened it up and discovered the power supply is making a faint clicking or ticking sound.
                  I measured the amp's output to the woofer and it pulses up to 50mv DC to be driver. The pulses coincide with the power supply ticking/clicking.
                  I measured the power supply output going to the amp board and it too has this pulsing. Voltage cycles...

                  Russound CA4 Power Supply Repair
                  by CMCM
                  Hello Everybody,

                  Trying to repair a power supply from a Russound CA4 Multizone Controller (picture attached)

                  Russound no longer supports it but were kind enough to provide a schematic of the power supply (pdf attached).

                  The outputs marked 12v and 20v are all measuring only 1v.

                  The board is clicking, which I think means it is in something called hiccup mode when the flyback transformers switches because of an internal problem or something else on the board Overloading it.

                  The capacitors physically look clean (no bludgesor leaks) and...
