Re: Acer AL2416 AL2416W 24" 1920x1280 LCD Monitor

Sorry, the caps are not used. Those are the ones I have used on the board already. I didn't get to install the rest of the caps. I think what I will do is install the caps to see if the problem goes away. If it does then I will invest in the proper caps and fix the PSU properly. I have already replaced the monitor but it would be nice to have the spare. If I can get it fixed then there will be a sense of accomplishment to boot.

How do I tell what series a cap is? On the nichicon there is VZ(M), H1034 and 105°C...

The kit came with 13 caps but not a 3.3uf cap like the little one next to the big 450V 100uF.
I got the following caps:
one - 470uF - 35V NHG

three - 33uF - 35V KY (used one)
one - 33uF - 50V KY
one - 100uF - 35V nichicon

I need to correct my previous post because I didn't replace C29 like I thought I did. I will replace the rest of the caps with...

Wow you guys are on the ball with this forum. Thought I would post and check back in a bit to see if I got a response. Here are two pictures I hope will help. I already changed cap C28, C29, CS32, CS36. As you can tell those are the caps that are accessible when the plate is still attached to the heat sink. I didn't take it off until you requested pictures. I was worried about damaging something while prying. It came off easier than I thought it would. Unfortunately I found this site after purchasing a cap kit off the web. It...

Re: Acer AL2416 AL2416W 24" 1920x1280 LCD Monitor

I might be having the same problem with the same monitor. When it is turned on the Acer logo flashes on then the screen goes black (I don't see No Signal however). My computer recognizes the monitor via the DVI. Changing rez and refresh does nothing. I am using cables from a second monitor that works fine. Abit of history, the display was having issues when the computer would go into stand-by. When the computer was brought out of stand-by the display would sometimes remain in stand-by. I would have to turn the monitor off and...
