    Soyo Topaz S 26" DYLM26E6 Monitor failure

    So I've done a good amount of googling to find that what I need is either need new capacitors on the power supply or buy a new power supply board to make my 2 Soyo's work again. I would much prefer the capacitor route since it would be much cheaper than paying $50/PSU board.

    Every one of the guides I've found for fixing a Soyo is either for the 22" or 24" models, which have noticeably different and smaller PSU's.

    I disassembled one of them and can only see one capacitor that could be bad. It is the only one that has a slight bulge, and everything else looks okay to me. Note, I have no experience with this kind of tech work but I have access to a solder.

    HannStar Hanns-G HC194d LCD monitor repair
    by momaka
    Normally, I never post repairs this quick after I do them, because… I am usually very slow. But today, I’m making an exception here. Why? No idea. Perhaps only because the repair details are still “fresh” in my head… which is ironic, given this is a 16 year old monitor that hardly anyone will care about today. It is new to me, though. I picked it up last November from someone on my local Craigslist. It wasn’t very close to where I live, but was close to a family friend that I had to go visit anyways. So after watching the posting on Craigslist for a few weeks and seeing it getting...

    TVs vs Computer Monitor Reliability & Failure Rate
    by nobbnobb1
    Anecdotally, it seems to me that TVs fail much more often than computer monitors judging from personal experience and looking at the classified where people are getting rid of broken/malfunctioning TVs all the time.

    So I'm just wondering if this is the case? Is there something inherent in the design of monitors that makes them more reliable? I would've thought they'd be operating under more severe conditions than a TV. For a typical family, a TV may only be on for a few hours every day. Whereas a monitor could be on 8+ hours, along with countless power cycles turning on/off as power...

    AOC AG493UCX 49-inch monitor - Firmware request
    by wattage
    Hello Badcaps Community,

    I purchased a preowned AOC monitor that is not working and out of warranty. It was sold as not working. I am looking for guidance on self-repair. In particular, I am after the firmware for the monitor. At the end, I have included monitor model information and links to pics and vids of the issue.

    The problem is that it will not display a picture on any of its inputs. And the on-screen menu does not appear. The power button works properly. It powers on with the remote as well. But the on-screen menu does not appear, even when not connected to any...

    LG 23MP55HQ LED Monitor turns off after a few seconds or flickers.
    by Rick_1234
    Good evening, gentlemen.

    I have a problem with my monitor. It turns off after a few seconds or flickers. Shining a flashlight on the screen doesn't show any image, so I guess it's not the "2 seconds to dark" I read in the forum.

    To turn it back on, I have to press the power button twice. Then after a few seconds it turns off again or flickers. See video.
