    LCD TV and Monitor basic troubleshooting guides

    I cannot find the original post so this is the new post that I will have it liked to my signature file. It will be good if it can be on the sticky.

    Notes: When make voltage measurement in the DEADLY Primary (HOT) side, the negative leg of the LARGE filter cap will be the ground ref.
    The chassis will be the ground ref for the Secondary (COLD) side.
    You should at least plug the unit you are working on into the GFCI outlet for safety.

      Great job Bud M. Very handy and informative guides. I am sure these will be of great use to a lot of people. Certainly agreed that these should be 'stickied'.

          Excellent guides. Sticky please! Along with the factory reset guide of Randtek's that got buried.

              I'll ask ratdude747 (moderator) to make this a sticky. He's a reasonable person to work with and quick to respond when he's not busy with school.

              This will hopefully decrease the frequent questions and workload for everyone.

              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.

                    Excellent work Bud!!
                    May I ask you, if you could include in these documents, some pictures with the standby voltage area(or other important areas of the device), the most important ICs(and what they do), how do we know if the PS should have 166V or 450V.

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.

                                          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.

                                          Wise Wing F199 19'' LCD monitor - recapped

                                          Looking through my repair pictures and notes, it's been a long time since I posted anything in the LCD monitors section. So here goes that.

                                          I'm dedicating this thread to one of the very first LCD monitors I repaired (if not the first one), which was more than 10 years ago now. The monitor is a Wise Wing, model F199. It's a 19” CFL-backlit LCD. I got it for free off of Craigslist in 2009 from a guy, who said he bought it for cheap from Wallmart and the monitor worked only for a little less than 2 years before quitting.

                                          When I saw the Craigslist post, I wasn't...

                                          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.

                                          Need help with troubleshooting tips\ schematics -LG monitor that goes off quickly
                                          by litec systems
                                          Hi all
                                          Does someone has the test points \ schematics for lg eax65543115 ( 22" version, lg led monitor)
                                          Or any ideas how to troubleshoot it?
                                          The screen turns on for like 10 seconds, then goes off ( kinda protection triggered, as it goes off like you've been pressing the power button)
                                          , but the cpu gets hot quickly within those 10 seconds , AND STAYS HOT EVEN WHEN IT'S OFF
                                          I'm suspecting it gets over voltage \ current and triggers some OV \ OC PROTECTION but hopefully it's not too late ( that the chip is broken)

                                          NOTE that it's a trashpicked monitor...
