    Acer al1706 lcd no image power led is green and the display is on what is the problem?

    Re: No image

    Too few details to help you: it's completely black (no signal) or you can barely see an image (dead backlight tube and/or inverter). Can you see the OSD menu or not?
    At first check the obvious: secure the vga cable with all screws; try connecting it to another computer too.

            Might help to know if it's just the backlight or the whole thing BEFORE you tear it apart.

              Shine a bright flashlight with the LCD on and plugged into a computer if you see a faint image it's a backlight problem.

                Exactly correct.

                Might have to try the beam from several angles to be sure.

                  I've had about 15 of the AL1706 monitors go bad so far. It's most always the power supply and the same 3 capacitors that have gone bad. Replacing two 1000uf 10v and sometimes the 1000 uf 25v corrects the problem.

                    I agree, three 1000uf caps (two 10v and one). I change them all, even the inverter's side one. They are just a few.

                      My board looks a little different. I wonder if there are different revisions of the AL 1706.

                        I've seen AL170A, AL1706b, AL1706A/Ab and 1706Ab. This board comes from an AL1706A/Ab. Maybe there lies the difference.

                          Re: No image

                          I've got the same board as djames100. The caps are testing ok on my Blue ESR meter, I'm getting 5v on the output to the processor board on pins 1 and 2. 12v to pin 13 on the inverter IC. But still no power LED and no display or backlights. I found this link from acer and I've been poking through the flow chart, but its a little over my head. I've found a couple resistors that seem to not match their numbers.



                          In circuit:
                          R818 is pretty low 2100-2500 depending on polarity supposed to be 3300
                          R810 is supposed to be 5100ohms and is reading 4100ohm and 2500ohms depending on polarity.
                          R811 is supposed to be 43000ohms and just climbs from 20000 up to ???

                          Any comments from the experts before I go replacing things?

                            Post a clear focused picture using manage attachments of the logic board. (please do not post inline). I suggest checking the voltage regulators on the logic board. If you are getting 5V DC to the logic board, but no power LED, the regulators could be bad?

                              Wise you are, retiredcaps!! It is in the logic board instead of the power supply board that I was looking at. I have a second working monitor and I swapped PS boards and the problem stays with the logic board. I'm looking for the VR's now. I'll have to post a picture later, as my phone does a horrid job at closeup pictures.

                                    U101 and U102 are your voltage regulators. The part number might be something like AS1117-33. The suffix indicates the output voltage. In this case it would be 3.3V DC.

                                    These voltage regulators have a 1% tolerance.

                                      U101 is dishing out 3.26v on the good board and 3.75v on the bad board.
                                      U102 is dishing out 1.79v on the good board and 1.20v on the bad board.

                                      Input voltage is the same on both boards.
                                      Schematic says U101 is 3.3v output and U102 is 1.8v output. So would both VRs be bad on the bad board? Or is something else causing the voltages to be off?

                                        What is the actual input voltage on all pins? You measured 5V DC on the connector and I just want to see what is going into the regulator.
