    Benq FP757, replacement transistors only worked for three days

    I had a black screen on my Benq FP757. I replaced all four c5707 transistors on it that are known to fail and all was good for about three days. Not it's back to a black screen again.

    Is there something else failing that would cause the transistors to fail? I'm not much of an electrician, just a noob with a multimeter and a soldering iron.

    You need to resolder the 4 inverter transformers, all the legs of each one, these are possibly reason transistors failed in the first place
    IT may be only one has failed so you can replace one of the good old ones as they never all fail plus possibly a new fuse will be needed on inverter

      I agree. Replacing the 5707s without resoldering the transformers is almost like not replacing them ..... in fact worse, as you may have to remove the 4 pieces and see how many went south ....

        i have one of these models which also had a bad lcd. a ton of vertical lines plus no power when powered on, blue power button turns yellow etc. i replaced the 4 c5707's, 2 fu9024n's and the 3 amp fuse and also the lcd was replaced. i now have a red tint to the screen and pictures arent really clear. like photo quality clear. is it possible that the cable on this is not compatible with the newer lcd and causing the red tint?

          It's possible, but more likely the red tint is die to CCFLs that are dying.

          For a number of reasons, both health and personal, I will no longer be active on this board. Any PMs asking for assistance will be ignored.

          Never be afraid to try something new. Remember, amateurs built the ark. Professionals built the Titanic.

            I agree. Red/pink hue is the signal of dying lamps

              Onkyo A8200 - Not the right voltages in some transistors
              by Francesc V.
              Hi:

              I am trying to repair this amplifier that I've bought as faulty. I've found some transistors damaged, the ones where I am drawing a red circle.

              With the final transistors not yet installed (the expensive ones), I've started to measure some voltages:

              Where I am supposed to have 1.12V (base Q524/Q523) I am reading -42V..................both channels don't seem ok.
              Where I am supposed to have -1.12V (base Q526/Q525) I am reading -44V..................both channels don't seem ok.
              I removed and tested Q514,Q516 & Q513,Q515 but the analyzer...

              Sundown SFB-8000D What are these transistors?
              by redbaron1007
              I had a Sundown SFB-8000D amp come into the shop yesterday that wasn't giving any output. The guy who brought it in said he bought it off some crack head on Facebook marketplace for a good price, but bought it knowing it was broken. Apparently the original owner was cutting out the transistors to the right of the ones pictured whenever one would blow and take the output out. Best I can figure he also cut the legs on the S5 and S6 ic's as well and soldered them back together.

              My problem is Sundown decided in the factory to remove the original markings on the IC's and now I can't figure...

              MSI Crosshair 15 A11UEK. Need help with Transistors!!!
              by Bob Wong
              Welcome badcaps, repairing a Crosshair 15, in need of transistor specifics. Received a broken laptop that's was perfect for repair, threw away the looser transistors in a haste... Should and could have salvaged them.
              In any case, I will be posting all my discoveries to this forum as a thanks in advance. Thanks in advance lol.

              P.S. If anyone is familiar with such things, as in, If anyone knows that MSI uses one or one of a few types of transistors when marked with a number please let me know how I can find more specifics before I start throwing hail marys.

              Marantz PM-66SE Burns Transistors
              by hyva_ana
              Hello,

              While ago I replaced those big filter caps to that amplifier. After that started to happen. I connected the amplifier normally to the mains and almost immediately several transistors burned out. I really didn't do anything else (at least on purpose) than replaced those big caps C801 and C802.

              After that I replaced those burned transistors (I can't remember exactly what they were) and measured all the others, and now everything should be ok. But, when I power up that amplifier part with two bench power supplies connected in series there is obviously still something...

              Benq Zowie XL2540K / Power board failure / 6Pin-SOP-Chip identification
              by seppde
              Hello everyone,
              I've got a Benq power board of a XL2540K monitor which suffered from a power cut and is since defective / won't turn on. It's got obvious defects, some blown resistors, some burning around the drain pin of a MOSFET...
              ... and some 6-pin IC I struggle identifying, that is driving said MOSFET.
              The IC is labeled as IC601, so someone with a circuit schematic could probably identify it really quick, unfortunately I can't find the schematics.
              In other power boards of Benq for which I did find the schematics, IC601 is an 8-pin NCP1200 PWM controller - I suppose...
