    Dell 2007FPb problem

    Hi,

    this is my 1st real post on this forum. :-)

    My son has a Dell 2007FPb monitor, whic a few weeks ago started to act oddly: it was woring for a 30-40 minutesm, then turned off. It was possible to turn it on with unpluging and replugging the mains cable. A few days later is stopped working.

    I had no time till now to look into the device. Thanks to threads on this forum i was able to repair the power supply on the USB board (i had to replace a small resistor which was out of spec - 47 kOhm). So now the monitor has power, recognized by the computer, but screen stays empty - no osd, no data displayed from the computer.

    I checked, based on the threads the following voltages:
    Main power:
    - 19 VDC - OK

    USB board:
    - 3.3 VDC - OK
    - 5.0 VDC - OK
    - 12 VDC - Not OK, but it is only for the sound barm which i do not have

    Logic board:
    - 3.3 VDC - OK
    - 2.4 VDC - OK
    - 1.8 VDC - OK

    LCD control board:
    - 19 VDC - OK
    - 3.3 VDC - OK
    - 1.8 VDC - OK

    I am bit lost now, where to look for the problem: the logic board seems to be OK, as power levels are OK and also the computer recognizes the monitor (and the monitor comes out from standby when attached to the computer). The LCD board was working fine before the problem occered and currently i was unable to identify any blown fuse or missing power in the card.
    I hope that somebody on this forum can give me some hint, direction to follow next.

    Thanks

    ps: I posted some picutres of the above boards too.

    Do you see any background image at the panel? Does the backlight turn on? Make sure you have connected properly the LVDS cable, move gently the cable while the monitor is working and look for changes.

      I rechecked everything today. I do not see any background image on the panel. The backlight turns on. Monitor reacts on the front panel buttons, computer regnize it when plugged in etc.

      I tried to move the LVDC connectors on both ends, but nothing changed. I checked the cable with an ohm meter and all wires a good and did not find any shorts between pins.

      Do you have any other suggestions?

        Found some documentation on the screen (LM201U05)https://dev.xdevs.com/attachments/do...2_final_1_.pdf and made some measurements on the control panel for the LCD. All measured voltages are in spec.

          You could check the sinal pairs, but you will need an oscilloscope.

            Don't have access to oscilloscope unfortunately....

            Does any of these boards have a serial/debug output to connect them to a computer and see the output?

              i do see a space for a 4pin connector - pin4 is gnd.
              no idea what it's for though.

                maybe a bad solder joint?

                  Those pins are connecting to the main IC and definitelly looks like a serial port. Will try to find spec for the FLI-5961-LF before connectiing anything to the pins. Would really appreciate if someone could post the chip's datasheet, as a quick search did not show up results.

                        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...

                        by Garret Matt.
                        Hello,

                        I'm Working on replacing an Inductor on this Dell's board and I need to come up with a compatible replacement. As much as I would like to smash a comparable 2R2 in the same spot I'd like to confirm the specs before confirming a killed board. For my purposes I'd be happy with a second opinion on the replacement inductor or the actual schematics/board view. As this is a commonly used Dell Rugged in my local service area, schematics would greatly help in the future.

                        Thank you in advance for any assistance you can render.

                        Inductor In question. Buzzes like...

                        Hey everyone,hope everyone is fine, I got an issue hoping you guys can help me,

                        I got a HP V193 monitor it has a E59670 now i got a few of these, been using them for long time now, however this particular monitor was blacking out for a few times then after unplugging and plugging it back in it gets back to normal until now its dead.

                        I tried switching the power supply board with another similar monitor and it works,so I'm trying to fix this power supply board I got some basic in electronics as a hobbyist.

                        Steps taken so far:

                        Checked all...

                        Dell 15R-5521 keyboard problem (KBC?)
                        by SDNarcia
                        Hello, I have a Dell 15R-5521, with the problem that the Ctrl, Alt, Shitf and Num Lock keys do not work, I tested the keyboard with a keyboard tester and it is functional, I also got another new keyboard and the computer has the same problem with the same keys. Check continuity between the ZIF connector from the keyboard to the KBC and all pins are correct. I cleaned the ZIF connector and the KBC and I still have the same problem. I reinstalled windows just in case, and it didn't work. I updated the BIOS to the latest version A16 and there were no changes.
