Re: Samsung 2443BW Backlight/inverter problem

@ Lumberjack777..Yes that makes sense ...Will probably resolder all the crappy connections when it goes dead again,but for now i'm gonna leave it at that...im just so glad this worked ....thanks for the reply..

Re: Samsung 2443BW Backlight/inverter problem

I see.... well thanks again Budm...

Re: Samsung 2443BW Backlight/inverter problem

Thank you Budm... It appears the problem has been resolved (knock on wood) I've re-soldered the transformer pins,as you suggested and just in case-I've replaced the main capacitor with a Rubycon one... So far the monitor is working like a charm..Can I ask what is the reason for those pin solder connections to crack and burn like that?Do you think it will happen again? Once again thank you for the input my friend... Will recommend this forum to everyone ..

Re: Samsung 2443BW Backlight/inverter problem

Ok so i saw something suspicious on the bottom solder connections of the inverter transformer... It looks like the connections are ''cracking'' ... and on the left one there is a visible burn... could this be a sign of a bad transformer??Would resoldering do any help?included a pic ..I don't know where to find a schematic of the board,and i dont know where to get the same transformer.....when i google the transformer model number i cant find any on the net....Any help would be much appreciated....

Hello all.... On start let me just say that i'm no electrician,allthough I have some clues to what's going on...I have a Samsung Syncmaster 2443BW monitor that gradually started to go blank.First it just randomly went blank for a split second ..then after a minute or so the screen went blank.After I ruled out the graphic card,and computer,I concluded that the fault is in the monitor itself..It stayed blank no matter if i turn off the I/O button on buttonboard... Except if I turn off the power suplly on/off button on the powerboard ,I managed to get it lit again but only for a minute or so,then...
