Re: Dell 3008wfp faulty power supply
Arh I could not wait I put in the replacement STPS60170CT diode without it as it did not come with one.
Did anyone else put one on their STPS60170CT diode?
Anyway all seems to be working, my 3008WFP is repaired and working....

Re: Dell 3008wfp faulty power supply
Ok, I have remove the bad diode and am about to put the new D22 diode back in.
I have noticed the old diode has a rubber band round the last connection.
Is this important, should I put it on the new diode, or does it not matter. Please see pic which explains it better than I have....Leave a comment:

Re: Dell 3008wfp faulty power supply
Thanks selldoor for the tip.
Would you recommend using braid to desolder the diode pins (see pic) also?
My gun does not seem to be all that great, either that or it is me....Leave a comment:

Re: Dell 3008wfp faulty power supply
Ok. I am trying to remove the heatsink by desoldering the two corners of the heatsink and the two diode´s attached to it.
The corner solder circled in red is larger that the desolder gun tip I have.
How did other members desolder these joins?...Leave a comment:

Re: Dell 3008wfp faulty power supply
Am having difficulty sourcing lead solder locally.
I have found one which is 50% tin 50% lead. Is this ok to replace the diode?
If not can you recommend the best % ratio.Leave a comment:

Re: Dell 3008wfp faulty power supply
I understand your need for guidance. With a thread as long as this there is so much information that it can become overwhelming and the presumption by those more experienced is that you have not read the entire thread when in fact if you are like me and never taken a monitor apart even reading all the threads twice left me still confused. It was only when I opened up the monitor did it start to make sense of it all.
It would be better to assume that a newbie has read the threads but still need help, after all is...Leave a comment:

Re: Dell 3008wfp faulty power supply
Thanks for the link. I had already seen the video, just was not sure if it was useful for the 3008, as the video is for the 3007. Will use it as a guide....Leave a comment:

Re: Dell 3008wfp faulty power supply
Hi new to the forum.
I have never taken a monitor apart before.
I need to resolve this problem on my 3008WFP, so I am going to take it slowly and ask questions as I proceed.
Please be patient with me if my questions seem obvious or basic. I have read all the thread as well as other posts, but it can for a newbie like myself be a bit confusing.
The first thing I need to do is open the monitor.
In the pic attached it seems there are two parts that could open the monitor
I assume it is...Leave a comment:
