    Dell 1702FP LCD Fix from FixYa

    Hi,
    We had a Dell 17" LCD with flashing power button, and alternately flashing setting lights. Opened it to find no obvious bad caps but lots of surface mount
    capacitors. I went on FixYa just on the off chance. One answer offered was the "take it to a shop", but another GREAT individual offered the solution and EXACTLY which surface mounts to replace.

    "Replace two 10uf capacitors on control board C604 and C507."

    My son says he also has a video on his home page showing the work. It is linked to one of his solutions on his profile page.

    Any way my son got the soldering iron and inside 20 minutes had replaced the two caps and was using the lcd.

    So hats off to "hdaghigh" on FixYa.

      Wow, usually FixYa is a bunch of illiterate morons telling you to buy a new one. Good to hear.

        I'm not real impressed with FixYa either.
        Pops up in every damned google search and RARELY has anything that's even pertinent to my search let alone actually useful.

        DixiePenguin, no disrespect intended. I'm speaking about FixYa in general.

          PCBONEZ, I know what you mean. But if this is a tested solution, this will be one good among all the crap that normally is answered there.
