    HP 1940 - no backlighting

    Hello,
    have LCD HP 1940. Got out in it's backlight.
    Power board: BenQ 48.L1G02.A01
    Replaced Q808, Q809 on C5707, Q805 on FU9024N and PF801 125V/5A fuse (I had no counterpart here so when I put the glass fuse 250V/4A).
    When the monitor, there is a backlight for about 2 seconds and stops working again.
    What do you propose to make this work?

    When replacing the fuse busted my pad of PCB. So I did this (IMG_20130719_164600.jpg ). I think it has no effect on the backlight.

    Try replacing the solder on the inverter transformer pins

      You can still have circuits problem or bad lamps, you will need test lamps to find out otherwise you can be spending lots of time trying to repair the circuits when the problem can be the lamp/lamps.
      You van try other lamps from broken LCD panel or make two of these test lamps.

        I have two CCFL lamps of disassembly. Do I need to check it to connect all four?

          You can do 1 pair of the one in the panel, and another pair of test lamps to find out which pair is bad, basically all 4 lamps will be used: 2 inside the panel, 2 test lamps. if the first test the screen does not stay on, then you use the other 2 on the panel to see if it will stay on. I myself when I work on monitor that black out after 2 seconds, I use 4 test lamp to see if they will stay on, that way I know the inverter/power supply board is OK.

            Corrected soldering on the transformer. Still the same.

            I plugged the CCFL. Below the result.
            2 second backlight (1pair)

              You have to have BOTH sets plugged in, if you only have one, then it will switch off anyway !!! so you need test lamps on one pair and originals in the other, then swap over

                  Re: HP 1940 - no backlighting

                  I connected the two pairs of CCFL. The effect is the same. The backlight lights up for a moment only a first line (shown in photo). The second line there is no backlight.

                    "Replaced Q808, Q809 on C5707, Q805 on FU9024N" so those transistors are in the section that dose not light up the lamps, I cannot read the designators of the part from the pictures.
                    Did you also re-solder all the connections of all the transformers in that area?

                      My suspicion is bad transformer. Have you measured the transformers on the side where there is no backlight?

                        by corrize
                        Hello, I disassembled this dead camera, and found this WTF… Two fuses soldered one above the other !
                        I was pretty sure nobody touched it before, but that can't be from factory. There is flux, and capacitor is probably missing.
                        The other weird thing : the fuses are « G » fuse : (0.75A – 8V), seems very low. The original fuse should be « O » : (32V 2,5A).
                        There is « O » mark beside. All fuses have the same mark letter on main board. So, I can deduce it's a « O » fuse.
                        And this correspond to the issus I saw : when I plug the battery, I measure the voltage dropping...

                        Samsung UE46ES8000 Blown fuse but no other signs of short
                        by jesterace
                        Hi I wonder if anyone might be able to steer me in the right direction. I have this Samsung UE46ES8000 TV and it went bang during use. The main fuse on the PSU board is open. I've checked every diode/mosfet/transistor I can see and nothing appears to be short to cause the fuse to go. The DC output of the bridge rectifier is not short either. I've seen online that some of these models are known for having their PFC mosfet or other mosfets shorting and blowing the fuse but i'm not seeing that here. If anyone aware of these models having any issues to cause this? I'm reluctant to just replace the...

                        Hi guys,

                        I'm inexperienced with electronics repairs, I've done a little bit of soldering caps and whatnot, but i have a blown fuse on this mimaki printer I got which I have bought a replacement for.

                        How do I remove this type of fuse (see picture)...it kinda looks like it would pull out of that bracket but it didn't come at first pull and I didn't want to brute force it incase it's soldered on there like most of the rest of the components.

                        Anybody know how to remove this type of fuse?

                        (The fuse is toward the bottom of the image labeled F2)...

                        Argon SA1 audio amplifier power-supply - fuse blown after fixing the short?
                        by Babbar
                        I found a project in the electronics trash yesterday. A nice Argon SA1 audio amp with some electrical issue. Took it apart and saw that the 4A250V fuse was blown so started lifting components to find the short. Eventually got to two MOSFETs (model FTA14N50C) that are shorted and when i took them out the short was gone.

                        Now i didn't have any replacements of the same model of course but i found a couple with pretty similar spec i thought (K10A60D & K12A50D) and put them in. Also replaced the blown fuse with a 3.5A250V one. Checked another time for short circuit and plugged it in....

                        Matsui 175S microwave fuse replacement
                        by drykid
                        Hi,

                        I recently picked up a used Matsui 175S microwave that was powering up (starts, turntable rotates) but not heating. From looking online the most likely culprit was the fuse, but unfortunately in this one the fuse had heated up and fused with the (badly designed) fuse holder and couldn't be removed. I guess this might indicate further issues beyond the fuse itself but at this stage I just want to replace the fuse and see how I go from there.

                        Anyway since I couldn't get out the fuse itself the easiest fix was to replace the fuse holder assembly that runs between the...
