    CapXon

    I have been looking for the answer to fixing my DCLCD 19" Monitor. (Specter)?
    1. turn on the monitor and the red led comes on then turns blue.
    2. then the screen flashes a silver screen. the led flashes red then blue again and stays blue.
    3. however the screen goes black with no image at all and stays that way.
    4. Took the monitor apart and checked for any bad caps with bulging domes.
    5. found 2 they read CapXon 1000uf 16v KF 105 degrees C vent
    6. have nothing to test any parts with so am just looking
    7. pulled the 2 bulging caps off the board (power inverter)tried to replace them with 2 of equal value but they are larger then the ones pulled off the board.
    8. no luck at all so the question is even though the new caps are the same as the ones pulled of the board, just larger is some thing else the problem or is it the new caps?

          Agree.
          Low ESR (and 105c temp rating) are needed here. Without proper caps, you can't go further.
          Also, replace them all, not just the two bulged ones.

            thank you so much for the info. Obviously I didn't buy the right caps, which both you and Bill point out. Ok What brand and where can I get the right caps? and please explane ESR.
            This is a project that I want to do myself so if it doesn't work then I have no one else to blame.

                Cheap, quick, and easy is good if you want a one night stand, but you probably wouldn't want to take her home to meet your parents. Also, buying caps from a distributor like Digikey or Mouser can save you $$$

                Standard suggestion: Make a list of the electrolytic caps, showing capacity, voltage, diameter, and height. If you want to, follow the steps here. Or simply post the list. Someone will make suggestions (or verify yours).

                        If you had paid attention you would have noticed the minimum order is 1, with price breaks for quantity 10,100, etc.

                        As far as the dimensions of the existing caps, there is this handy device called a RULER.

                          I figured that was coming. But at least I know for sure now I won't have to buy the STANDARD PACKAGE.
                          And As far as the ruler is concern I'll have get one with CM and MM. Haven't had to use one in a very long time. Its better to be safe then sorry.
                          ESR (Equivalent Series Resistance) see I have learned something.

                              Just measure with whatever you have and then convert it:

                              1 inch = 2.54cm = 25.4mm.

                                  That's a mighty skinny cap. .

                                  You forgot to multiply by 25.5 (=9.5mm).

                                    You won't have much luck finding a cap with those METRIC dimensions. Try looking for one 20MM high, 10 MM diameter. Remember, you need low ESR caps. See the FAQ 'Which caps should I buy?' in the FAQ subforum.

                                        Even though the replacement caps weren't low-ESR, it still should have most likely started running (for a while at least) if caps were the only problem. There's probably another problem besides the caps - but the caps still needed to be replaced anyway.

                                          Normally, 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...

                                          Hello,
                                          I have an Eizo SX3031W monitor and after a period i had problems with the tcon board. I did reflow, it went well for a while after but the problems appeared again. The second reflow attempt was a failure, the tcon board stopped working. In the meantime, I bought a perfectly functional Samsung 305T monitor from which I took the tcon board and installed it in the Eizo monitor. Since I turned on the monitor, the blue color appeared in the background instead of black. And also in Windows, appears blue instead of black. I tried various settings from the monitor and driver settings but...

                                          Hi Everyone

                                          Lately I am experiencing the deja-vu incident on one of the led monitor like this.
                                          https://www.badcaps.net/forum/troubl...lashing-on-off

                                          The monitor is HP 27es LED Monitor
                                          https://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Deskto...e/td-p/6804692

                                          The monitor will randomly blackout and display no signal and will recover again.
                                          Sometimes need to power and off again to restore the display but...

                                          Good evening, gentlemen.

                                          I have a problem with my monitor. It turns off after a few seconds or flickers. Shining a flashlight on the screen doesn't show any image, so I guess it's not the "2 seconds to dark" I read in the forum.

                                          To turn it back on, I have to press the power button twice. Then after a few seconds it turns off again or flickers. See video.

                                          4 weeks ago i launched Metro Exodus Enhanced and during cinematic advertisement part ( 30 fps ), pc just shutdown.
                                          Also monitor flickered with NO SIGNAL 10 seconds after shutdown. So only monitor and pc was affected.

                                          Next i pressed only power button, rebooted again and its fine again. Happened once and i cant reproduce.
