I just broke the factory seal on a Dell (Philips) monitor that was manufactured in July of 2010.
I decided to check the power supply board (see image) before I even powered up the monitor for the first time.
The following is a list of the electrolytic capacitors. Are any of these more urgent than the others to replace?
C605
Lelon A207(M)
120uF 450v
C501, C503, C505
FDAI
220uF 10v
C521, C522, C855
Elite
220uF 25v
C606
Lelon
A032(M)
33uF 50v
C851
Elite
220uF 35v
C703
FDAI
470uF 25v
C707, C708
nichicon HE(M)
680uF 16v
C704, C801
Lelon
330uF 35v
I did later power up the monitor, and it does work fine. The best parts are the two nichicon parts (C707, C708) on the secondary. Even though they are all unused, they are all 11 years old.
This power supply board is not very commonly available on the used market, so I'd like to protect it from the old capacitors causing the failure of other components. Should all of caps be replaced?
