    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....
