Re: LG flatron L1718S - shaky picture when not in native resolution
Glad to hear... I did a second SMD repair today (Which I haven't tested yet). Changed a MOSFET on a motherboard... It really helps that I now have a 60w iron. No way I would've been able to do this with the 30 watt.Leave a comment:

Re: LG flatron L1718S - shaky picture when not in native resolution
I received 10 from China for $1 + free shipping. I fixed an Acer lcd that has been sitting in my basement for about 14 months with a bad 1.8V regulator.
@bocca, If you can't find one in the next few days, PM with your address. I think sending a letter to your country is only $1.80 CDN. I'll send you a couple.Last edited by retiredcaps; 06-12-2012, 06:39 PM.Leave a comment:

Re: LG flatron L1718S - shaky picture when not in native resolution
Actually I knew I had one because I have a very similar PSU/logic (ILPI---) from an Optiquest. I didn't take it from that one partially because it would be difficult to get to with the iron... Then I found the Acer logic board and it was really easy to get to... Looking around my house I see them on all kinds of components. The thing is, there are like a million different names for this regulator. And you have to make sure to get the 1.8v version. Look on spare AGP videocards, you might find one there.@mockingbird: congrats man! Why oh why can't i find one to salvage?

@tom66: unfortunately price is not so good it goes to about 30 euros for the 100 and that's more that this monitor's worth i know it souns silly but thats the prices here. Nothing to do about is but whine at forums like these
OK, at least we definitely know that 1.8 reg is a bad boy so the search continues!Leave a comment:

Re: LG flatron L1718S - shaky picture when not in native resolution
These regulators cost 6-10 cents each in volume, so 100 could be worth it if you can get a good price...that would be great! I tried to order them but no one will work without paypal, even though some accepted to send to serbia.
One store here sent me the response that they'll make an order "but only if i take 100 or more because it too much of a hassle to order just a few for me". So I'm stuck basiclyLeave a comment:

Re: LG flatron L1718S - shaky picture when not in native resolution
YAY!!!
I changed the 1.8v regulator on the logic board, fired it up and I saw the Flatron Logo, and then the PC input! Woohoo!
My first SMD repair!!!
I removed the regulators with a 60w iron if anyone is wondering. It takes a bit of finesse, but it is possible.
My replacement regulator came from an old Acer logic board. It's an STMicro part "LD18A", almost like this.
Thanks everyone for the help. There is also another good thread for this monitor here, if anyone is interested.Leave a comment:

Re: LG flatron L1718S - shaky picture when not in native resolution
Did you try those 4 cables that go to the PSU?This is the next step...Did you test your voltage regulators?
Yes. Exact same problem as before...Was the problem present before the recaping too? I mean, backilight on, no pictureLeave a comment:

Hi guys! I realized you have a lot of knowledge here so i am hoping you could point me in right direction with my odd issue.
The Tv is a Philips 58PUS8545/12, it had no picture but working backlights.
Original T-con:
Opened the Tv and tested to unplug one ribbon cable at a time. With this test i could see that i got fine picture on both halves as long as there was only one ribbon cable connected, with two connected picture were gone.
First replacement T-con:
I thought it might be t-con and ordered new t-con from china(supposedly tested)... -
This was my main TV for the last 6 years. I'm not inclined to throw out a $2600 TV so quickly so I'm trying to investigate the issue.
Problem
TV was disconnected from power for 6 months during construction. When I plugged it yesterday picture was fine, after 30 seconds it dimmed then started developing horizontal lines, picture then starts to ghost vertically until it degrades into vertical streaks. TV always displays a perfect picture when cold. I can unplug TV for 5 minutes and plug it back in and picture is restored for 20 seconds. I can also keep it in standby mode... -
Hi, I have a Samsung UE50TU with:
- sound and backlight, but no picture
- when it arrived, it had a picture for a few seconds
- it keeps rebooting
- without ribbon cable between the two panel boards, it does not reboot but I have no picture
- without cable between mainboard and lcd panel, it does not reboot (but obviously i have no picture)
- when i try a tape fix, its keeps rebooting, unless I tape off pin 1 (the innermost pin). In that case it does not reboot but I have no picture.
- without cable between mainboard and lcd panel and with a jumpered... -
I have a 60 inch Samsung UN60EH6000F flatscreen TV. The screen went black a few months ago Sound is good, backlight is good, no menu. I replaced the TCon board with a used board purchased from Ebay. It worked fine for a 3-4 months, then the screen started ‘fading' back. Once again, sound is good, backlight is good, no menu. However, this time the picture looks fine for about 10-15 minutes, then fades back. If I power cycle the TV, the display reappears, for another 10-15 minutes, then fades black again. Repeatable ever time.
I ordered a supposedly ‘new' Tcon board this time, and... -
Hello, Last week I bought the 50" Sony X80j tv everything was working fine, untill I plugged the tv in a ups power supply 650va the tv remote control became unresponsive and the TV became laggy after a while the picture quality isn't the same as before the tv seems less brighter and the picture is somehow blurry, people's faces don't look as natural as before, there is a mini orange-pink tint to the edge of people's faces especially in NETFLIX Dolby Vision like in One Piece ep1 Alvida skin tone, my intention was to protect the tv but something went wrong I checked the ups with a multimeter,...
