Re: Samsung Syncmaster T240 Super Dim Backlight

I tested at the CN2, All readings were normal. Nothing was out of the ordinary. When is the next step in testing to find out what needs to be changed?

Re: Samsung Syncmaster T240 Super Dim Backlight

When you mean hooked all up, I assume you mean run power through it, correct? I understand the rest of what you saying, and I will give it a try. Thanks for the reply and I will post the results.

Hello all,

I am very new to tearing down a monitor and I need assistace on how to test/know what to look for. The monitor is SO SO dim. I have read so many posts, but I feel I am in over my head in terminology and basic testing skills. I got as far as taking out the power board. Here are some pics. Thanks in advance for everyones time......

Re: Dell 2405FPw Smudge Mark



Thanks for the quick response!

I figured it must have been something like that. I just acquired this monitor and will give it quick message to see if it changes. Can this damage the life of the monitor by chance?...

Hello!
I am very new to this forum. I posted in new members section & I did some searching regarding the question I have. However, I could not find anything specific to the issue at hand.

The Dell 2405 FPW has a smudge mark on it, shown below. It looks like a horizontal "J" between the Apple Logo & Spinning Gear. I think it is from someone cleaning the surface too roughly. Can anyone validate this is the issue or is it something deeper? I feel the experts on this forum can quickly diagnose my issue.

P.S. what brought me here is my Samsung...

Hello to All!
I am brand new to this forum and very stoked to join. I stumbled upon this forum because I have a Samsung SyncMaster T240 that needs repair. Reading a few posts I could tell I was in the right place. I have a lot to learn and I am excited to tear it down.

Thank you for the previous and new posts. I appreciate the advice and help,

Chris K.
