    As you have said you have replaced most of the capacitors did you do the start up capacitors on this psu if your not sure up load a clear picture and we can point them out. The second board im not sure on have you tested all the diodes etc.

        Here is how to fix them:

        17PW26,
        Very common issue is bad capacitors please check the fourm for how to diagnose badcaps. The smaller ones and the ones in a group of 3 under the main mother board plug should be changed.

        17IPS19-3,
        Common issue with these is blown output diodes which when failed wont let the Tv turn on (protection circut engaged) you will need a DMM to test have you got one ? Or the software for the Tv has corrupt meaning mainboard fault you will need to re-flash the firmware if so.

                      can you try heating a certain area a time to narrow down the area that makes it turn on faster, with this fault i use a empty cardboard kitchen roll tube and aim the hot air down it so i can heat little areas at a time.

                          I repaired a 17PW26-3 last night. Bulging 2700uf cap along with others. As Reecey says, replace it. Often caps in the Vestel PSUs aren't visably failed but have a high enough esr to cause issues.

                              by Dannyx
                              Good day folks. A few days ago I had the misfortune to be assigned a hand drier, the vertical type with a slot at the top where you insert your hands and a jet of air on either side blasts away the water. This thing was a nightmare to work on and it's stuff like this that makes me hate my job: very dirty, disgusting ! They didn't even have the courtesy to let it dry before plopping it on my desk....dirty water dripping out of it, mixed with bits of dust, hairs and dirt, limescale everywhere, a pungent moisture smell....horrible experience ! The type of thing you would only give to a greenhorn...

                              This came to me with alot of water damage on the power supply board so I replaced that board from ebay.

                              Now it powers on displaying the Hitachi logo then off. Can keep turning on like this.

                              When first plugged the standby leds flash slowly red/blue and it displays the logo without me pressing the power button, then shuts down after 3 seconds and displays red led.

                              Now if I press power button it will display logo again but this time when it shuts off the leds flash alternating...

                              by AquaSonic
                              Hello to the forum!

                              I am currently troubleshooting the Dell U2718Q monitor, which will work perfectly until it randomly shuts down and after a number of minutes will power on and work again, until it randomly (but quicker) shuts down again.

                              After some investigating i came to the conclusion that this is due to the Mstar MST9U37Q1 controller overheating, causing the monitor to shut down. When the controller is cool enough it will start working again. The power supply voltages at all times seem normal, nothing else feels hot on the board and by using a hair drier to...
