Re: Samsung SyncMaster 226BW



Thank you for your reply Lexwalker,

I have replaced the entire lot of caps on the power supply with Panasonic caps of same type. All of the large caps were bulged at the top (6 of them), the little ones weren't but I replaced them as well (3 of them).

Yes, I measured the fluctuating voltage on the supply rail that goes to the inverter. It fluctuates 14 volts to 0 volts continuously. I would think this should be a continuous 13.5 to 14 volts but my electronic skills are not great.

Thanks...

Re: Samsung SyncMaster 226BW

Hi everyone,

On my pS unit (226BW) , I'm measuring the output and I'm getting an on and off- on and off 14 volts. Should I be getting a steady 14 volts ? Also, the blue on/off light blinks on and off as well. What should I look for that would be causing this on/off voltage?

Looking for help,

Thanks Ed

Hello to All,

I have the black screen syndrome. I've changed all the caps..even those that were not domed. Still have black screen..and power light flashes. Took apart and rechecked solder joints..they seem ok. I put my voltage meter on the 13.5 volt pins (where the ribbon attaches) and it flashes from 14 volts to .1 volts continuously on all 3 +13.5 volt pins. This flashing seems to match the flashing blue led on my monitor on button.

Off hand..can anyone suggest which component would cause this as I would think the power...
