    Re: Dell P1110 21" CRT repair thread

    Okay, so what I had to end up doing was scrape all of that stuff off with my iron because I guess I had already burned the stuff pretty good onto the tab. However, I managed to get all of it off and complete the process! I ended up using stranded copper wire, and the finish was not pretty, but it definitely got rid of the over-brightness.

    It seems really dark now, but I am going to be messing with all the settings before I mess with the G2 voltage.

    Thank you all very much for the advise and help!

    Shot 0645 shows how clean the second closest tab to 404 is; shot 0648 shows how messed up the tab right under 404 is....

    So, I am finding it very difficult to solder a wire to the metal tab because it looks like there is some kind of glue stuff that is all over it; the solder will not stick to the tab. Will it be okay for me to try the next closest metal tab? And in case that does not work out, what are my other options?...

    Okay, so it definitely sounded easy, but now that I have gotten to the part where I connect pin 17 directly to ground, I just realized I have no idea how to do that. Am I supposed to desolder pin 17 and move it somewhere else? And if so, where? I have a picture of the area if someone can show me what I am supposed to do....

    Thanks for the explanation, momaka! Sounds easy enough; hopefully I can find the time to do this before the week is over.

    Either way, I will update everyone on how the mod works out for me.

    How exactly did you bypass this? I am new to all this stuff, but did my first solder repair on a Trinitron TV recently; so I am ready to desolder some things off of this P1110 I got from CL a month ago, I just need to know what. Re: Dell P1110 21" CRT repair thread

    Hi everyone!

    I joined this forum to look at some attachments someone posted for fixing a brightness issue with a Dell P1110 CRT Monitor. Not only that, but I recently did my first ever solder repair on a Sony KV-34XBR910 that was having power on issues (got the TV for free off CL!)

    A bit about me: I decided to try solder repairs because I'm a hobbiest computer geek and I want to be geekier about computer hardware by the day. Right now what I am really into that has to do with computers is display...
