    Viewsonic VX2245WM - White screen

    Just completed a LED conversion on this monitor (https://www.badcaps.net/forum/showthread.php?t=55502). Display was working before the conversion, and at various points that I tested throughout, however upon completion I have no video output. I tried 2 DVI cables, to be sure. I am unable to view source selection or the menu.

    I tested various vcc points on the board running the length of the LCD, and they all read around 3v, however the outputs on each channel (1out1, 1out2, 2out1, 2out2....etc) each read around -150mv. I do not see a fuse on this board at all.

    Logic board model number: A170E2-E03-H-S6
    LCD board: A220Z1-Z01-H-X

    Any advice would be appreciated.

      I have carefully inspected both flex cables from the logic board for damage as well as all of the hot-knifed connections to the LCD and see no damage. Any advice?

        So there's no video output, but does the LED backlight come on?

        I don't know this specific monitor, but does the main control board have a line on which it senses the status of the backlight? I suspect there is a line somewhere that needs to be pulled high/low.

          I just converted it to LED, and they are activating. Before I started this project the LCD would display even though the backlights would not turn on. Please see previous thread for pinouts and voltage readings. I'm not sure if one of them needs to be pulled low, however if I disconnect the LED control board the LCD still does not have any video out.

            Plugged it up again and RTD2553v chip is physically hot. What might cause that?

              White screen repairs
              by harp
              To ask here... I have few devices with white screen problem, actualy nokia 2220 and some fuji? camera, and try to understand what is common problem to cause that issue.
              Yes, both devices work everything else probably ok, I mean, I hear intro melody and keypress click sound, DTMF tone, power on off... all ok.
              On desk is nokia 2220 slide, and I check all screen connectors and components arround it, measure voltage drop, but all looks ok. I suspect on slide flex cable, but it look ok and white screen is not interupt while flexing board, pushing conectors, and sliding up down. In attachment...

              Viewsonic VS16217 strange problem - white flickering screen on power up
              by domu
              As per subject, on power up display shows no image, but white
              flickering screen. Strangely, it only happen after power was lost
              when it was on. After power returns - white screen only, but if
              disconnect power for 12-24 hrs, and connect then again monitor
              works normally.

              Any clues how to go about it would be greatly appreciated.

              Macbook 2017 with touchbar (A1706) won't turn on after removing the screen
              by Ryan.man
              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...

              Sharp LC-65Q620U White Screen
              by EazyBone
              Another TV topic!!
              I got this sharp TV that when I first plugged it in it showed the sharp logo and then went to the input screen. This was about 30 seconds and then it showed white screen. Now I can't see anything but white screen. This has a separate TCON and Main.

              The TCON is getting 12V and several parts are as well but the VGH line is only .5Volts which I thought is totally incorrect.

              Am I on the correct assumption that the TCON is bad somehow if I'm only getting that voltage or is there something else I should check?...
