    Dell 1701FP Inverter Problem

    Hey all. I joined the forums last week after finding all this good information on how to fix inverter problems on monitors right after getting 4 LCDs with inverter problems for $12 each: HP 1955, Dell 1701FP, Dell 1702FP, and BenQ FP767.

    I've pretty much figured out all the problems with all of them (thanks to you guys), but I'm having a hard time finding exact part matches for the 1701FP. In my attached picture is a stock picture of the inverter board, so you can get an idea.

    After finding a helpful person on Fixya for this board, they said to check the D3 and D10 diode (red boxes) and F1 fuse (blue box). Sure enough, on my board, the D3 diode had a big bubble in it, so I'm pretty sure that was the problem. Looking on the D10 diode and F1 fuse, they appeared to be fine, but I want to replace them anyway. The D10 diode label said "S7 17" and the F1 fuse just said "3A". I tried to find those on digikey but I couldn't really find them through the huge catalog.

    Anyone know what the part numbers could be and where to buy them? Could I just replace the diodes or fuse with ones from Radioshack?

    Sorry, I meant to says the D10 diode said "S3 13".

          Nevermind. I figured out what I needed. Just had to replace the one diode with the bubble in it and it works great. Too bad the other Dell and BenQ monitors aren't fixable though....

            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...

            Imac A1312 - Blown Diode, Need Inverter Schematic?
            by reessi
            iMac 27-Inch "Core i7" 3.4 (Mid-2011):

            First off I have the Imac Schematic but only for the mainboard, does anyone have the inverter one or a similiar one from another for better understanding?

            Searched all over for one!

            All voltages to the Inverter are correct:

            (12v in, 3.3v Enable and PWM Approx 3.0v).

            Output was 12v and moved a little but Inverter was obviously cutting off as D1 was SHORTED.

            After replacing this the IMAC works for 1 week exactly and dies again. When working the output was correct...

            A funny fuse story – Lumix LX100 II
            by corrize
            Hello, I disassembled this dead camera, and found this WTF… Two fuses soldered one above the other !
            I was pretty sure nobody touched it before, but that can't be from factory. There is flux, and capacitor is probably missing.
            The other weird thing : the fuses are « G » fuse : (0.75A – 8V), seems very low. The original fuse should be « O » : (32V 2,5A).
            There is « O » mark beside. All fuses have the same mark letter on main board. So, I can deduce it's a « O » fuse.
            And this correspond to the issus I saw : when I plug the battery, I measure the voltage dropping...

            Dell Latitude 5420 does not start (no post) need help to find the reason why
            by F R 2568
            Hello all,

            this is my first post, so if I make mistakes please do not hesitate to point them out, thank you in advance.

            I got a Dell Latitude 5420 (Service Tag: 7RFM6D3, Motherboard: GDF40 LA-491P Rev.: 2.0 (A01)) which does not start and I want to repair it. These are the symptoms:

            If the laptop is only connected to the AC adapter (battery removed):

            When I press the power button, the keyboard backlight and the display backlight are turning on. Caps key light is lightning, but key does not respond to pressing it.

            The power/battery...

            Looking for Dell Latitude 5520 / 5530 / 5540 RJ45 network connector replacement
            by diamon
            I have a Dell Latitude 5530 with a damaged RJ45 network connector. See the attached pictures.

            Have already searched on Farnell / Aliexpress / Ebay and had contact with several suppliers on Aliexpress and Ebay, but they cannot deliver this connector.
            Is there someone inside the EU, who has these connector(s) or perhaps defective motherboard(s) for these laptop models I have mentioned in the topic title.
