    Two Dell E 173 problems

    I now have 2 dell monitors with the following problems (posted on one earlier but no resolution).
    The E173FPf comes on dark and takes several minutes to lighten up and stays fine until it goes to sleep and then the same pattern happens.
    The other (E173FPt) comes on quickly but the display is dim and has an overall yellowish hue. I have exchanged the two screens and the problems remain the same in each monitor indicating a powerboard fault in each and not a display or backlight failure. The boards look fine with no bulged caps.
    Any help would be very appreciated.

      Dell E6400 PT434 type Battery Charging Stuck at 1%. Battery Pinouts?
      by Bowline
      My question pertains to understanding the control circuity inside a Dell PT434 type battery used in Dell E6400, E6410 and other Dell notebooks?

      Does anyone have a circuit diagram for the inside of a Dell PT434 battery and/or a description of how the control lines work to control this battery?

      My reason for asking is I have a battery which I cannot get to charge beyond 1% in a Dell E6410 or E6400.
      The LED bar graph charge indicator on the battery shows one LED lighted when the info button is pressed.
      I have tried multiple different Dell power adapters. My Dell...

      Problems extracting from Dell Bios Update.Inspiron 3793
      by Caimano
      I am trying to repair a Dell Inspiron 3793 which has problems with start up, no battery charging and fan not running. I believe the Bios (probably the EC Region) is corrupted.
      The board is FDI45-LAJ091P REV 1.0 A00
      Processor i7 1065G7 with GPU
      This MB has 2 Bios Chips (one 8MB and one 16MB chip).
      I am trying to reload a new Bios with clean ME region, new main region and new EC region.
      I attach the dumps of the 2 chips.
      I successfully used ME analyzer to identify ME, PCH and PMC versions and used Flash Image Tool to install ME, PCH and PMC cleaned regions....

      Hello all,

      I got a Dell Latitude 5420 (Service Tag: 7RFM6D3, Motherboard: GDF40 LA-491P Rev.: 2.0 (A01)) which does not start and I want to repair it. These are the symptoms:

      If the laptop is only connected to the AC adapter (battery removed):

      When I press the power button, the keyboard backlight and the display backlight are turning on. Caps key light is lightning, but key does not respond to pressing it.

      Looking for Dell Latitude 5520 / 5530 / 5540 RJ45 network connector replacement
      by diamon
      I have a Dell Latitude 5530 with a damaged RJ45 network connector. See the attached pictures.

      Have already searched on Farnell / Aliexpress / Ebay and had contact with several suppliers on Aliexpress and Ebay, but they cannot deliver this connector.
      Is there someone inside the EU, who has these connector(s) or perhaps defective motherboard(s) for these laptop models I have mentioned in the topic title.
