Also looks like there is a resistor burnt out.

All I can see with 90% certainty is red black silver. I don't know about the last 2.

Here is underneath the board looks like more damage!

There looks to be a blown copper strip just above J34.

J34 also looks to be damaged. I will measure it to see if it is blown.

Re: Barco LCN-42 No Power

Thought I would strip the Power Supply down a little to see what's going on.

Glad I did. Looks like a couple of caps have had it.

Also looks like there is a resistor burnt out.

Is it thermal paste that is used between the metal heat sinks?

Re: Barco LCN-42 No Power

Im still taking it apart. Just took some pictures as it is so that I know what's going where.

I can see some bulging caps on the component input board.

Apparently they have tried another PSU in it already and that didn't work. I am going to take some more stuff off it then I will get some more pics.

You heard of this make before?

Re: Barco LCN-42 No Power

So.. what's the problem with it? lol

I already see a bunch of bulging caps on the board above the amplifier (?) heatsinks and a SMD fuse (with golden contacts!?) on the same board.

Can't really tell what that board is. The unconnected spaghetti all over the place don't really help either lol

Got hold of a new Monitor to play with!

Its come from a TV studio. They tried another power supply in it to get it going and it wouldn't so they decided to bin it. The nice chap I bought it off said that they don't really try hard to fix them its quicker just to put up a new one.

I have found the company that make then and the model is listed here...

It looks like they are a really good brand the quality feels amazing.

Has anybody ever delt with one of these? if do you you possibly have access to the service guide for it?

I have attached some pics.
