    Dell 2408wfp no image

    Just came into possession of this monitor. When powered on and connected (to a PC on DVI) I only get an empty screen.

    The backlight is working and so is the PIP function but no image is displayed at all, not even the input indicator icon that normally appears on the top left. Pressing the menu button similarly has no effect. Also while in this state it may take a few presses of the power button to turn the monitor off.

    Before I crack it open - any general thoughts? From what I gather it appears likely to be a tcon issue.

    I've got 2408WFPb with the same problem. Backlight comes on, power LED is green but the screen is blank. No OSD.
    The voltages on T-con seem to OK (1.8V at IC19, 3.3V at IC21, 2.5V at IC7 & IC9, 15.15V at CC20..CC24).
    The delay when turning off is also present - it might indicate a problem on the main board (unless the T-con communication is bi-directional).

      Seeking Advice: Repairing Dell U3425WE Monitor with Faulty USB-C/Thunderbolt Ports
      by Borse2008
      Hi everyone,

      Looking for some advice or opinions on what to do with a monitor issue I’ve run into. Apologies in advance is this crossovers a few forum categories.

      I have a Dell U3425WE, which I've recently replaced with another model. That said, the original unit is still fully functional in terms of the display — it works perfectly over HDMI and DisplayPort. However, the USB-C and Thunderbolt 4 ports have stopped functioning correctly. The Issue:
      • The 90W Thunderbolt 4 port (circled in the photo) no longer charges or powers any device, including laptops or MacBooks.
      • There’s

      Dell Precision 5510, motherboard AAM00 LA-C361P Rev:2.0
      The board turns on, there is no image.
      Read more. When the power supply is connected, the front panel indicators light up briefly.
      When you press the power button, the button indicator lights up. The board works
      there is no image, there is no matrix initialization, there is no image on HDMI.
      When turned on, the fans do not spin, but when they warm up they start spinning.
      When you turn off the button, the fans spin up to full speed for a short...

      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...

      Guide me through repairing a Dell p2210f LCD ccfl backlight monitor
      by DanPoka
      I bought this p2210f dell monitor to fix. Schematic is the same as p2210.
      Behaviour is that monitors comes on but then backlight switches off almost instantly. If I look with flashlight I can still find the "No signal message". So definitely a backlight issue. Trying to advance the issue I proved that the protection circuit is switching off the backlight by shorting out C3 and resistor to disable the INL chip then re enable by removing the short.
      This is where it gets interesting. When I disassembled the monitor to solder leads on c3 capacitor I noticed the backlight flickered...

      HannStar Hanns-G HC194d LCD monitor repair
      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...
