    Viewsonic - VA1912w-3

    I dont know how i seem to have gotten conned into fixing all these LCD @ the moment but anyway...

    Still waiting for parts on the Benq, but heres another one..

    Viewsonic, nothing but a white screen. had 2 of them, 1 with dud caps, and the other one a white screen. .Swapped the white screen PSU into the other and its all good. So, it looks like the video board is having trouble. All SMD(on the video board), so no bulging or anything. Connectors are good, all clean, no bad joints, reseated cables but no joy.

    Any ideas? been over with the glass looking for dry joints, found a couple and no joy, anyone know test points or anything which may help diagnosis ?

    Oh, its a rebadged chimei a190a2-h01

    Cheers,
    David.

    probably don't have power supply to the lcd panel, you must check +5V to panel electronics (smd fuse)

      Viewsonics usually go due to PSU caps.

        Second that. White screen can be caused by an open fuse on the input of the LCD panel electronics.

          PSU is good, as it works perfectly for 3 days now in another monitor... checked all smd fuses, all good...

          Guess a little more time with the meter is called for.

          Cheers.

            Check the fuse on the LCD panel electronics. If open, screen will be white. I've seen it on Hanns-G and Dell units.

              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?...
