That very panel is used in many different screens. I have one in an L1975NW, has blown caps. Replaced caps, but most of the time you need to replace the MOSFETS and a fuse or two. What happens when you use cheap no name caps :(
My monitor needs caps replaced, im trying to take my apart and it wont seem to work, im gonna try what you did, i got all the screws out but the frame is stuck, i guess like u said, u may break some or all the tabs, but its better than a paperweight. Thank you! An honest video!
a tip for NOT breaking those little tabs on most monitors, laptops and other such devices is a butter knife or the plastic tool that is used on bicycle tires for dismounting the tire/tube.. I have only broken 1 or 2 of those tabs on most jobs I do.. I have no video's up ... yet.. but may start soon, been in the pc/IT biz for 18 years..
1 question where did you get your capacitors from for this repair.. I have a viewsonic that is identical (may want to title your video's with model/type)
@CoolUnderFire21 the method is pretty rough (first to admit it) but it's only holding on the front face of the monitor. This one was a freebie so no skin off my nose.
RS Components is a good source for most caps in Australia & UK worth checking out if your close.
good vid. I have one very similar and was afraid I was breaking the frame but went on and it all snapped away finally without getting too messy.
bottom line with most of the electronics now they don't want you to open it and repair it so it isn't tech friendly. Unlike laptops and desktops which are made to be taken apart and repaired. Thanks for the vid it helped a lot. Oh and there were 3 bad caps in mine. Two of the same as yours plus another.
@TradieTrev Look forward to the next vid. Built and repaired many computers and laptops in my time but the monitor is a first. Of course the industry taught us that the crt's were not FRP's and the same with power supplies but the lcd's are a different balll game. Thanks again...
I'm ok pulling things apart, it's getting them back together that I have trouble with. I s'pose the plastic would get brittle after a while and would be easy to break the lugs.
@dgls57 silicone fixes pretty much everything including the damage caused to this LCD display upon pulling it apart. Really should do a recap when the parts come in (from china) I'll post it up to see how it goes.
@kegs666 haha it wasn't pretty, but got the job done quickly :) 7yrs now I've been in the trade as a sparky; Enjoy working on electronics in my spare time. Always like to show what you lot can do without killing yourselves ;)

@thescubageek Glad it helped you out! There has been a heap of time I've saved by pulling apart LCD's this way, it's a good technique to use.
$3 worth of caps and no doubt you'll have yourself a working LCD!
Stay tuned there will be another how-to video in this context up shortly
