    AOC F22 Power issue.. Here's one for ya..

    First, MANY thanks to all here at BC.. There is a wealth of info here and some really kool folks!! Their posts have helped me tremendously in my humble learning.

    OK.. I have an AOC F22 monitor that, after recapping, goes (DID) to black after a 2 - 3 minutes or so, quicker after it's been on and powered down with the button. BUT.. it gets better here :>)

    I used Nichicon.. Panasonic and Rubycon

    1. the two tall 680uf 35v was all I had
    2. the 22uf 50v checked OK so I left it.. didn't have a new one
    3. transformer secondaries = 6.16 each leg
    4. CCFLs checked in test board for 15 minutes OK
    5. jumped one blown fuse because had none to replace it
    6. Atlas ESR70 tester
    7. Fluke 115
    8. Jim Beam (Medicinal)

    From here I have no clue and I'm just learning, so please pardon my ignorance.

    NOW the catcher.. I powered the thing up to do some voltage checks to post here.. and it's been running about an hour now.. in it's case. BUT.... it did shut off again, and I used the power button to recycle power and then it flickered like it wanted to shut down... BUT NOT.. it's still on 1 1/2 hour total and now holding steady again ????????? wazzup with that ??

    mo whiskey.. mo whiskey :>)

    I know my solder joints aren't the prettiest, but they work... or at least I think they do and have in my other jobs...

    I'm gonna leave it run if it will and see what happens... :>)
    If it continues to go south again, I'll be posting whatever I find (or not) on here.

    Again.. thanks for the support !

    still running...

      Sounds like there is still a problem.

      What about that fuse you bypassed? The location of it might help determine something useful.

      As for the solder joints, if I could actually see them I could give an opinion... you need to get closer, use macro mode etc.

        Thanks Agent24..

        I'll work on some better shots f I tear into it again.. The monitor is still running again, with just a flicker now and then..

        I think I blew the fuse when the board slid out of my hand and touches the metal case, discharging a cap. I heard it discharge. Difficult working with a broken finger.

          Maybe something wrong with lamps or lamp wiring, I saw in some other threads that crappy wiring can cause problems.

            yep.. CCFLs checked OK on test board...

            Out of the last 20+ monitors I've capped... this one is a puzzle...

              Maybe your tester runs them at a lower voltage though, and the problem doesn't present itself there (but I am just guessing here)

              Might need to get some more in-depth look at the PSU

                  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...

                  Acer Spin 1 SP111-33 Power-On Issue (Troubleshooting Assistance)
                  by justice171
                  I am seeking guidance on an Acer Spin 1 SP111-33 that does not turn on when pressing the power button.

                  Below are the observations and troubleshooting steps I have taken so far: Observations and Tests:
                  1. Verified that all critical voltages are present:
                    • 3.3V and 5V are always present if DC is plugged.
                    • 1.8V on the BIOS chip is present.
                  2. Checked the power button functionality:
                    • When pressed, the voltage drops to 0V, indicating the button is functional.
                  3. Inspected the flex cable connecting the USB, audio, and power button to JUB1:
                    • Confirmed connectivity is intact, ruling out issues
                  ...

                  by claws77
                  hi guys, my motherboard will not start no matter what
                  when connected to ac power, the battery does get charge, led indicator glows red when discharged and turns white as it is fully charged.
                  but rest nothing happens no sign of life.

                  this laptop has one preexisting usbc power issue - so i use DCIN jack for charging my laptop.
                  with this issue my laptop was unable to power ON only sometimes i just had to wait some time.
                  but now nothing happens no matter how much i wait/ charge/ press and hold power button.

                  i have no knowledge of motherboards ....

                  Dell G3 17 3779 Weird power cycling and shutdown/restart issue
                  by SuperJames
                  This one's a weird one, and still unsolved despite it having gone back to Dell once.

                  Specs

                  i7-8750H, GTX 1060 Max Q, 500GB SSD & Seagate 7mm 1TB HDD. 17.3 IPS screen. This has the fingerprint reader in the power button.

                  Backstory

                  I bought this from eBay, from a wallpapering shop. £650 in 2020 which was a good price considering it's a gaming laptop. Physically it's in perfect shape, apart from the hinge mounts on the palmrest failing in the time I've had it (I have a new palmrest for it). The usual thin plastic crap modern build quality!...

                  by Soulzink
                  Hi everyone,

                  I am trying to fix a samsung washinmachine power supply main board.
                  I already replaced it with another one to fix the machine but i want to try understand the issue with the old board.
                  Therefore i hope to be able to get some help to explain what to check in order to troubleshoot.
                  The power supply board reference is the following: DC41-00189a
                  I have followed one thread (https://www.badcaps.net/forum/troubl...ingmachine-rel...
