    Image shivering after cap replacement

    I have a Mag Innovision 22" LCD monitor. It's a pretty old monitor and I already have some caps replaced about 3 years ago. The screen was turning itself off after a few seconds, so I took it apart and replaced the bulging caps. Now it will stay on, however, the image on the screen is shivering. Does this mean my monitor is dying? Or is there anything simple that I might have overlooked? Thanks.

      It's hard to show in the photos, because the words kinda shivers/shifts. But I found a work around for it, turns out this only happens when I use the VGA input (maybe there are some other bad caps or when the caps went it damaged something on the VGA side), when I use the DVI input it's fine. So I just switched the cable to DVI. Thanks for the reply.

          Caps can fail without bulging or leaking. Probably should replace all the electrolytic caps or at least the ones that test bad or out of tolerance if you can test them.

            HannStar Hanns-G HC194d LCD monitor repair
            by momaka
            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...

            AOC 27 monitor Q27G2WG4 doesn't display logo or image on screen
            by 3D Modelka
            Hello. I have a problem with my AOC 27 monitor, specifically model Q27G2WG4, which I have been using for 3 years. The monitor stopped turning on: when I turn it on, the backlight turns on, the indicator starts glowing white, but the logo on the screen does not appear, and there is no image. However, if I check in the Windows system, the monitor is displayed as connected and working. I tried connecting it via HDMI and DP, but the result remains the same. If I turn the monitor on and off multiple times, it will eventually start and work. However, when the monitor is working, there are no issues....

            No LCD image after connector replacement – lifted components and damaged resistor (Nintendo Switch Lite HDH-CPU-02)
            by Tomylee
            Hi everyone,

            Sorry for the person who’s going to read all this !
            I'm on a Nintendo Switch Lite, motherboard HDH-CPU-02.

            While replacing the left joystick, I had to remove the motherboard to access the connector underneath. When I lifted the LCD connector latch, it broke (the plastic had become brittle over time), so I replaced the entire connector.

            During the desoldering of the LCD connector using hot air, three small components located just below the connector (likely 0402 capacitors) came off and remained stuck to the bottom of the...

            HP ProOne 23.8 inch G9 ALL-in-One Desktop PC - Working when plugged to an external monitor, no image otherwise
            by Coguar
            In the device manager there is no built-in display located. The Intel UHD Graphics are displayed and only the external display is visible. The AiO turns on and works but is only showing a black screen on the monitor.
            I checked the voltage on the backlight connector and it reads ~20V. I tried reseating the LVDS and Backlight connector, yet the image still does not show.

            Does anyone have ideas whether or not this is a BIOS related issue? The only visible log in the BIOS logs is that the firmware was updated around a month ago.
            We already tried to fix it by resetting the...

            Fujitsu monitor: power is there, but no image from PC
            by jvelez
            Hi, seeking for guidance on the following:
            I have a Fujitsu Siemens monitor T19-1 (base model is C19-1) that stopped showing any picture, besides the FS logo when it boots.

            I'm attaching a picture of the system board with some additional info.
            - The monitor recognizes the presence of the VGA signal: the power button switches from amber to blue, and vice-versa when the computer goes sleeping.
            - The inverter + CCFL seems to be working fine: the Fujitsu-Siemens logo appears when the monitor is switched on.
            - I measured the values in the power regulators:...
