    Re: EMachines E183HV

    I got a couple new A4 diodes today. I'll give them a whirl tonight. Its my mom's monitor and she kept turning it off and on. I told her to leave the power on and it will go to sleep on its own. Don't know if turning it on and off can cause it stress.

      Re: EMachines E183HV

      sleep or on-off shouldn't affect the inverter side anymore one way than the other.

      once you replace them
      see if swapping the plugs on the bulbs works right. it should.
      then run it a while and check that group of transistors to see if that one is running hot again

        Re: EMachines E183HV

        Well I found my problem. One CCFL is toast. Now how to find a replacement. Can someone help me? It says MKE2 on the plug. Outer edge to outer edge is 16 3/4". I've attached pics.

        EDIT: I removed the melted plastic on the end of the CCFL and soldered the wire directly to the bulb. Will that cause a problem? I turned the screen on and let it run for 10 mins and I get no hissing anymore.

          Well so much for that. I put the bulbs in, dropped the case on it and broke the bulb. Well that sucks.

              Oh well. I'll wait until I find one at the landfill with a broken screen.

                Re: EMachines E183HV

                I figured it was a bulb

                finding an 18 inch in the landfill might be tough since 18" isn't that popular
                you can get them on ebay on the US side for 6 bucks but ship to Canada will probably be $10
                If buying them, I would get 2 or 3

                it's probably a 2.6mm one

                  Re: EMachines E183HV

                  I just threw out an Asus with a broken screen a few weeks ago. Had I known. Hindsight is 20/20. Would a bulb work from a 19" or would it have to be a 18.5"? Found this too:

                    Double check your length of the actual glass.
                    that ad says 414mm and I thought that you said yours were 16.75" which would be more like 425

                    a standard format 19" I believe is around 15.5

                    shorter can work in a pinch but you will have to reroute the wires straight off of the bulb instead of 90degrees out of the bulb and you may have to trim the silicone caps

                        an old style 19" wide screen is close to that if you are measuring the screen
                        You should measure the actual bulb

                          I edited it after you posted. The bulb measures outer edge to outer edge is 16 3/4" including connector.

                            ok, so you must have a wide screen and the 19 wide screen should work

                            FYI: when ordering bulbs, you measure the actual glass of the bulb

                              It is a wide screen. Great! Thanks for all the help!

                                    no, they come with a new invertor.
                                    btw - what is your tube-length in mm?

                                    if you scroll down the ebay page there are some install info's

                                        no - same seller, different item.

                                        go to the sellers "shop" and look at the led conversion kits for tv/monitor

                                          I never did one of these, but, it looks like you will have to do a bit of rewiring to use an led kit
                                          It does not plug into the plugs that your bulbs already use

                                            Just bought this for 10 bucks yesterday hoping to fix it. The guy said water dropped inside from a dehumidifier hose and it started showing black and white vertical bars then went blank. When I got it home and turned it on it came on fine and displayed correctly but I was noticing faint vertical bars in the image. After a little bit I turned it off and back on and it was a black screen again. I opened it up to check for water damage and corrosion but didn't find anything of the sort. I cleaned the ribbons anyway and reconnected them but still got a blank screen. If I disconnect the right side...

                                            This thread is about trying to get an Universal Main Board to work with a Sharp TCON and panel.

                                            I have a Sharp LC-46D85UN TV that has had a main board issue. Since this model is from 2009, I am not able to find an exact replacement of the main board. Instead, I decided to see if I can future proof this tv by getting a Universal Main Board (T53U21.2) from China to work with the Sharp TCON (CPWBX4291TPZA) and panel. The universal main board supports a 8 bit dual channel LVDS interface whereas the TCON requires a 10 bit dual channel LVDS input. I have modded the LVDS connector to match...

                                            LG OLED77G1PUA - No Video / Audio after a TCON Board change and Software Update

                                            Hi There,

                                            This TV was auto switching off after few seconds with some vertical lines on the screen, so got a new TCON board and replaced it.

                                            After replacing the TCON board it was working fine and i set it up with everything, used for few hours, then had the bright idea to update the software on it. During the update process, TV switched off and now no audio or video. No relay switch sound.

                                            More Details

                                            Hello everyone,

                                            I've recently been given a Sony 8k Z8H. It's got a white screen with two vertical black bars. At times it's given me the 5 blink Tcon code. Testing voltage on the Tcon I can see some low or missing voltage. I've done a basic visual check of cables and the COF. Not seeing anything obvious. The original Tcon seemed to have good caps until turning it over. On the bottom I found maybe 10 caps with both sides of the caps shorting to ground. I thought ok these caps and likely other components on the Tcon are shorted so let's try a replacement Tcon. I just received the...
