    What's this?

    This is on a Viewsonic VX2235WM. The circuit board is attached to the LCD screen at the top. I'm trying to ID what it is, and what it does.

    Any direction as to where I can get one would also be GREATLY appreciated!

    Thanks!

    L = inductor. You can likely get it from digikey.com, mouser.com.

    I don't know enough about inductors to know exactly what you need though. Perhaps someone else can recommend the exact part number?

    If you are new to this forum, we can help a lot more if you please post clear focused pictures (max resolution 2000x2000 and 2MB) of your boards using the manage attachments button so they are hosted here. Information and picture clarity compositions should look like this post.

    We respectfully ask that you make some time and effort to read some of the guides available for basic troubleshooting. After you have read through them, then ask clarification questions or report your findings.

    Please do not post inline and offsite as they slow down the loading of pages.

      As retiredcaps said, it's an inductor. It's part of the power supply (a boost regulator). They are a very low failure rate item, why do you believe you need a new one?

      For a number of reasons, both health and personal, I will no longer be active on this board. Any PMs asking for assistance will be ignored.

      Never be afraid to try something new. Remember, amateurs built the ark. Professionals built the Titanic.

        You can ohm that (with a multimeter) to make sure it is not open circuit.

        Otherwise, it is raely a problem (at least from your picture it does not seem to have anything unusual about it).
