    Another Dell 2005 FPW

    I have another Dell 2005 FPW monitor with this problem. It has vertical lines thru out the screen. It not that the pic is blurry, but I took a small movie of the screen then took a screen shot of it. At least the screen comes on on this one. Maybe between the 2 I can make at least one of them work. Have not taken this one apart yet. Wanted to get some ideas first.

    that sounds like it could be the ribbon cable or logic board.

    you said you had two of the same monitor, but the other one does not turn on?
    you could, if they use the same internals swap the power board with the one that doesn't turn on, and might have yourself one of them working.

        I would do it the other way round= as this screen is sort of working then the boards must be sort of working- so try the screen off the other monitor on these boards.


        Did you have a known working source connected to the monitor

            OK I used the invertor board from this monitor and the main board from the other monitor and this is what I get now.

              I'd swap the PSU's from both of these monitors.
              Don't buy those $10 PSU "specials". They fail, and they have taken whole computers with them.

                The one is bad, see first post. Inverter is bad on the other one.

                  Re: Another Dell 2005 FPW

                  Well I started trying to adjust brightness and contras and it has stopped making the arcing sound in the lower left hand corner and the screen is solid! Put it all back together and turned it back on and it was flicking just a little but went away in just a couple min. I'm thinking bad solder joint maybe?

                      Maybe get the arcing noise back again and then check where it's coming from, and then reflow the solder joint.

                        It does it when it comes out of screen saver when its been off for more than 1 hour but stops after a few min.

                          It's still a good idea to pinpoint the joint and reflow. Could you trace it?

                              Do you smell OZONE! it sounds like bad solder joint at the end of the lamp.
                              AM radio is good for listening for arcs.

                                I don't smell anything and it flickers about 1 to 2 min then screen is great! It sounds like it's coming from the lower left hand corner of the screen.

                                      Yes.
                                      Typical bad wiring:
                                      http://s807.photobucket.com/user/bud...?sort=3&page=1

                                      is this same one you have?
                                      http://s807.photobucket.com/user/bud...?sort=3&page=1

                                      It uses six lamps!
                                      Look at the corner back side of the screen to see if there is any signs of problem in that corner of the screen.
                                      20" monitor may not be worth fixing, but you do have one bad screen that you can take apart, right? The one with bad lines does not make arcing noise, correct? otherwise you can swap the LCD glass panel to the with good lamps.

                                        This is the one that had the lines through it. I put the other main board in it. Your second link is the one that was in the other display, both displays have 6 lamps, transformers has 6 leads on one side and 2 for the output side. This one, the transformers have 4 leads on one side 2 on the output side. I'm thinking I tried both screen and the other one flickers then goes out. Hope you followed all that. LOL

                                          Hello,

                                          YouTube video of the problem encountered: https://youtube.com/shorts/q7TLNv36LUo

                                          I am a pro and I have a problem that I have never seen despite my 7.5 years of experience on my own and my thousands of repairs, on a customer's Dell G3 15 3500.

                                          On this PC I have already changed the complete palmrest because the keyboard was no longer working properly.

                                          I also changed the screen because the PC fell and the screen was broken.

                                          I changed the battery with a new and original battery.

                                          I also had corrosion/oxidation on the...

                                          good morning all,

                                          i purchased a used dell e6540 laptop used 10 months ago from a vendor on ebay. intel i-7 processor, 16 gb ddr3 memory, 256 gb ssd., mobo la-9413p (rev 1.0 dated 2014-08-04). i've inflicted no damage on it since purchase but its past is unknown. starting 2 weeks ago it began to fail to boot (initially 9 of 10 boot attempts failed, now 10 of 10 fail). there was no new hardware or software added (i was using as a kodi video server). the post process doesn't complete and booting no longer displays the dell logo screen - screen remains black with no backlight. some other...

                                          Hello everybody! Posting this in hopes somebody has some expertise that leads to a clear path of troubleshooting that saves me a lot of time!

                                          My macbook has the flex cable problem, the one that prevents the screen turning on. Ive been dealing with this for the last 3 years. Last year it went dead and I managed to fix it following youtube tutorials. But my fix wasnt the best, the problem returned a month later. This week, it went dead again. I again tried to fix it.

                                          This time the original cable broke too close to the screen, it can't be fixed without tearing the screen...
