Disassemble 17" Dell LCD Monitor for repair part 2

This is how to disassemble a dell 17" monitor, this is a 1704FPVt while the one in the other video is a 1704FPTt. They look identical and both suffered from 2 bad capacitors on the power supply board. Both units would not turn on.

hey which board is the power supple inverter?

[mjmcomputers]

@shinyfuzzy Power supply inverter on this one is on the same board with the power supply, the board wit the power plug on it.

is that a Dimension 8400 in the background? they are known for bad caps too

[mjmcomputers]

@TOGA4808 I don't remember what model that dell was, I no longer have it, but the caps were good in it.

Do you know if it is possible to replace the power supply with a pc psu? are the connections standard 12v,5v, etc to the rest of the monitor? I only see one cable coming off the power supply, so I'm keeping my fingers crossed.

Great vid, and any help is much appreciated.

Thanks

@maymayday90 They aren't standard, some models use the same boards, but you need to match the model number on the power supply to replace it. Ebay normally has them.

@mjmcomputers

yea

[mjmcomputers]

@DemandAZ by residue, do you mean stuff on the top of the capacitor?

[DemandAZ]

I used this video to dissemble my monitor, I couldnt see anything wrong with the capitors, maybe a little residue on C825 but nothing as dramatic as yours. I was just thinking to just replace the entire board. Thoughts?

I believe it is the PS because there are no LEDs lit on the front and no response to the power button. thx

@ThePopularHits I don't see it?
