Re: Need help DCLCD 19" LCD Monitor - I already replaced caps
I recommend changing them one at a time so we know root cause. Make sure to use low quality ESR caps like Rubycon MCZ, Panasonic FM/FC, or United Chemi-con.

Need to leave work until tomorrow.
Thanks for working with me on this. I will pull the caps tomorrow and get then replaced asap and test. If you have anymore checks for me to try, I will be checking the board.
What about the white paste that is on the caps to hold them to the board. Will I need to replace that?Leave a comment:

Re: Need help DCLCD 19" LCD Monitor - I already replaced caps
The small cap should be connected near a SOIC-8 PWM chip on the bottom of the board. Can you read off the part number of that chip?Leave a comment:

Re: High Main Cap Voltage
I believe the X20 has a PFC to get 375V DC and this one doesn't. So 160V DC is correct for this monitor.Leave a comment:

Re: Need help DCLCD 19" LCD Monitor - I already replaced caps
Also the heat sink. I had the black on the PCB screw connector (just right of the optoisolator) and touched the red to the sink. I would think I should not register anything, but I do. I also tried it with the black lead connected to the green ground wire on the screen frame. -80+V.
The fuse is good.
REV 3 not J on the board.
I can change them both out. The big and the little. The pulsing voltage looks to me like a cap building then leaking down over and over. I usually only ramp them until breakdown on our structures on wafers.Leave a comment:

Re: High Main Cap Voltage
This thread reminded me of an X20G Scepter monitor that I last summer read 375VDC on the main cap...yanked the plug and put it aside.
So for future reference, what if a main cap is quite elevated over the 160VDC level for LCD power supplies? In which ways should the repair tech proceed?Leave a comment:

Re: Need help DCLCD 19" LCD Monitor - I already replaced caps
The metal piece is a heatsink. -85V again means you have the wrong GND point.
Change out that little cap first and then we can proceed.Leave a comment:

The large cap measured 172V-174V. Varying like the other voltages above.
Is the secondary voltages you are talking about the 2V variation?
I will have to try to borrow a dept camera to do this. I will try for today.
I have gone over the other pic and it is like mine, but I will follow up with the pic.

A few questions:
1) Looks like the power supply is not running by the looks of the outputs at the wiring harness. When you took the voltage readings, was everything hooked up? Some power supplies require a load before they will start.
2) I circled a connector on your photo. Was it connected to anything?
3) The small cap that's next to the large cap. Try to measure the voltage across it. Please report what you see. Be careful of the high voltage cap next to it.
4) If you can post a photo of the entire bottom of the board, it would be helpful.Leave a comment:

The little cap that I referred to earlier comes into play after the big main cap.
Is the secondary voltages you are talking about the 2V variation?
Since we are not seeing many secondary voltages in your measurement above, let's change out just small cap lying on its side next to the big cap. Normally, we recommend that you change all the electrolytic capacitors, but I'm trying to help you find root cause first. So by changing the little one, we might find that as root cause.Leave a comment:

Re: Need help DCLCD 19" LCD Monitor - I already replaced caps
1) If the power LED does not come on at all, measure the all the pins on the connector (just right of the optoisolator). Use a ground screw for the black probe. The red probe goes to each pin. Put your multimeter on 20V DC. List, measure, and record each pin. You are looking for DC voltage. At minimum, you should see 5V DC on one of the pins.
2) Brn 0V
3) Red 0V
4) Org 0V
5) Yel 0-0.04V
6) Red 0-0.04V
7) Blk 0-0.04V
8) Yel 0V
9) Gry 3.5V
10) Wht ~0.002V
11) Blk 0V
12) Brn 0V
13) MT
14) Red 0-0.04V
15) Org 0-0.04V
2) You are using the incorrect GND if you are getting negative voltages. To test the large cap, put your multimeter on 200V DC (if manual). Put your black probe on the negative leg and red probe on the positive leg. If you have 120V main voltage, the big cap should read 120 x 1.414 or roughly 160V to 165V DC. It should be a stable voltage. CAREFUL, this is high voltage.
4) Can we clear and focused picture of YOUR board? Reusing other people's pictures (especially without telling us) doesn't help us diagnose YOUR problem. Your board could have unique characteristics not shown in someone else's photo. It is not uncommon for manufacturers to make changes on their boards. Also try to get the resolution as close to 2000x2000 as possible.

3) The pulsing voltage is a clue. The small cap lying on its side just right of the big cap could be bad without bloating. That cap is critical to the SMPS startup process. So if you do not see any secondary voltages from #1, this small cap could be the culprit.

Re: Need help DCLCD 19" LCD Monitor - I already replaced caps
I used an LED flashlight and see nothing. Tried this before.
The LED was a solid blue before then would start blinking, now it does not come on at all.
Also, why do I see a -80V on the top of the large cap and a -84V and a -85V on the leads? All voltage measurements are pulsing just as I see it from the opto isolator.
thanksLeave a comment:

Re: Need help DCLCD 19" LCD Monitor - I already replaced caps
If you hookup a computer displaying your favorite wallpaper, do you still see it by shining a flashlight onto the screen? Also, does the power LED stay green/blue?
I put a DMM on several points on the board.Leave a comment:

Re: Need help DCLCD 19" LCD Monitor - I already replaced caps
Ok, I have the same issue. Turns on for a second, then goes out. I put a DMM on several points on the board. But what seemed strange was the right side terminals of the circled piece (AC connection to the left) kept flashing my Fluke from 4.xxV - 5.xxV, then to OL and back. On the DMM on the left I was getting -80 Volts. Is the where the AC is suppose to be converted to DCV? If so, this could be the failed part. What type of part is it? #4G P721F 4GRLast edited by DJM_PHX; 12-23-2010, 11:39 AM.Leave a comment:

Re: Need help DCLCD 19" LCD Monitor - I already replaced caps
I had problem with my similar DCLCD 19" monitor, anyway, I scavenged 2 capacitors (TEC, 16V, 1000uF) from a bad power supplies, test them out, and the monitor is work like new, the color is vivid.
Symptoms:Monitor began color shifting a while back(a year ago), greenish mostly, I didn't bother fix it, until it die out on me yesterday, open her up, find bad brand capacitors all in, didn't bother replacing all of them, just these 2 popped(CapXon, 16V 1000uF). anyway, I have been using it for like about 4 years. now it is like new, just want to share my experience, hoping it will help other. Great site though.Last edited by number22; 12-22-2010, 10:31 AM.Leave a comment:

by momakaNormally, I never post repairs this quick after I do them, because… I am usually very slow.
But today, I’m making an exception here. Why? No idea. Perhaps only because the repair details are still “fresh” in my head… which is ironic, given this is a 16 year old monitor that hardly anyone will care about today. It is new to me, though.
I picked it up last November from someone on my local Craigslist. It wasn’t very close to where I live, but was close to a family friend that I had to go visit anyways. So after watching the posting on Craigslist for a few weeks and seeing it getting...

by black6hostGood day!
I have a Samson Resolv studio monitor that has no sound output. I've opened it up and found two caps that are bulging on what I believe to be the power supply section of the amplifier board. The board is marked Resolv 65A AMP V1.2. The caps in question are YUSCON, 2200uF, 35V, 85C temp and have markings of RA(P) and are 16mm x 25.5mm tall. I've attached the schematic and the caps in question are C5 and C6. I'm assuming they are low esr caps. I've tested both caps and they test low uF, nowhere near 2200uF.
I'm going to replace the caps and I'll be the first...-

by momakaHere's another LCD monitor repair: Westinghouse L2210NW.
Quick specs: 22” CCFL backlit LCD, 1680x1050 max resolution (16:10 aspect ratio)
I got it with a bunch of desktops PCs from a repair shop that was trying to free up space a few years ago. It seemed like a cheap monitor, so I didn't really care that much at first when I picked it up (and indeed it is, picture-wise.) But hey, free is free, so I can't complain. Moreover, it looked clean and the screen didn't have any significant scratches or blemishes.

by zlr8rHey guys, bit stumped with this laptop after replacing 2 blown components i.e., MP86493, MP2979A.
To begin with, this laptop was dead-dead.
Now with replaced (visibly) blown components, i do get some progress; after connecting battery or main cable;- am getting white power led
- 5-long-flashes on CAPS Lock and NUM lock
- then, fan full speed
- CPU heats up some (smaller die PCH, does not)
- always constant black screen no matter what's tried
- no USB recognition
- no HDMI output
I tried... - Loading...
- No more items.
