Re: Acer AL1916 Not Powering Up, Or Delay

Thank you, sir.

Is there a database with part numbers for each board or should I pull them and check component values?

Re: Acer AL1916 Not Powering Up, Or Delay



I assumed the bulge would be significantly worse if they were bad. I take it a good cap should be perfectly flat?

I'll replace them all as soon as I get part numbers and can desolder....

I have an Acer AL1916 that worked for some time, and then when I pressed the power button it would take a few minutes to power on. It got progressively worse until the display took hours, and then days to power on. Now it will not work at all.

Symptoms:
Power button flickers briefly when pressed.
After pressing, power LED occasionally flickers green, continuing until the monitor starts.
When power LED flickers, backlight also flickers.

I can't see any bad capacitors.

Pictures of PSB attached....

Hello folks. I have been having some trouble with a monitor of mine and it has finally given out completely. I read through a couple of threads and this seemed like the place to find assistance. See you around!
