    Re: Yet Another Hanns-G HG281D Thread...

    @lumberjack, those two cap on the main board by the regulator, when they are bad, the screen will have noise, or black out, but if you lower the resolution to really low, the pictures will be on OK. Very common failure symptom when those two caps are bad.
    Thanks for the feedback.

    @reddeth, I would recommend PANASONIC FM or FR (Low ESR type, 105c rating) series from Digikey, I use them in all my repair, just match the capacitance/voltage (higher voltage is OK) and the dimension that will fit your board.

      Thanks, I will be ordering them in the next few days then. It's been hard to get back on this site, not only was I not emailed after receiving a response, but when i tried to come back to look for a response I kept getting under construction messages...that's frustrating :-/
      Appreciate the advice!

      EDIT- I was just looking at digikey and couldnt find any panasonic fm or fr at 100uf while at 16v but I saw someone earlier mention that they used 100uf at 50v and it worked great? I then saw your pdf sheet on your post (budM) and saw that they do have 100uf in 50v and you noted that higher voltage is okay...so would that be the way to go? 100uf at 50v at 105c?

        any chance these would work? have this old ati 9800pro 256mb laying around collecting dust. Maybe these would get me by for now?

          Yes, you can give them a try. Just remember that the ones in your photo are surface mount and the ones you are replacing are inserted into holes drilled through the board. You'll understand when you remove them.

          FYI- you can also use Panasonic FR caps and digikey has them in stock:

            good point, I think I'll forgo the headache and grab those 50v panasonics! Thanks!

              thanks, guys...those two 100/16 seem to have been the cause of all my problems. Swap them out for the panasonic 100/50v and everything is working great. Seems that the image looks much brighter and clearer too. Definately wasn't my finest hour though, I had a hell of a time removing the old caps and clearing out the holes so I ultimately went with soldering leads and extending the new caps an inch. Seems to be working great.
              Thanks again!

                Thanks for the repair feedback, glad to see you got it working. You should also look into replacing the caps on the power supply board, they will fail sooner or later also.

                  Good work. The only thing I would suggest to others seeing this thread is that the cap leads should as short as possible, since they can act like an antenna and pick up interference, which can cause picture distortion. Not good on a board that does the signal processing. In your case, there were no issues.

                    Will do, really only needs to last me another 4 months but It looks so much better then my new LED and I got so used to the 16:10 aspect that I may just pimp this baby out. Gaming on pc at 1920x1200 seems way less clausterphobic then 1080p. The extra vertical realestate makes a huge difference on my eyes :-P

                      Here is where I usually pop in and say for future readers, again, this monitor and its variations all run temperature hot. Even though the power board has quality United Chemi-con caps, they will dry out fairly fast due to the heat.

                        It depends how bad the caps are, if they dry out so much, then heat may not help at all.
                        Caps in the power supply for this monitor (same as used on some of the Viewsonics Monitors) will need to be replaced also. I suggest these two caps first since they are easy to do.
                        I googled and found this old thread. Thanks for the info. None of my caps were bulging, but replacing those two fixed my problem. Now the monitor works again.

                          Yes, this monitor is a perfect example of caps that go bad, but never bulge.
                          On both the power board, and the main board, in this model.
                          The only way you can really know is to have an ESR meter.

                          Thanks for the feedback
