How to Repair an LCD Monitor

How to Repair an LCD Monitor

If you turn on your LCD monitor and strange things happen; for instance, all you have to look at is an empty/black screen, or it takes longer and longer for your LCD monitor to start, or the picture is unreadable, replacing the capacitors will probably help restore your LCD monitor back to normal. This video shows how to take apart the LCD monitor, examine the capacitors, remove the capacitors, insert new ones, solder the capacitors in, and put the LCD monitor back together. We have tutorials at www.fixyourmonitor.com and another one at www.lcdalternatives.com
Video Rating: 4 / 5

    Fantastic Tutorial!

    My father owned a very successful TV sales & repair shot for 60 years so I have a good amount of knowledge of old CRT’s and circuit boards. Repairing, ext… However when it came to getting the monitor back off I didn’t want to mess it up (no screws anymore?>lame.). So thanks for showing the correct way.
    Your tutorial was clear & concise. One thing I would have mentioned is that capacitors do hold a charge and you can potentially get a nice “jolt” from one.

    WOW THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!no shit,i was sarcastic :D are you thinking that 95% of people that watch this dont give a shit?we are not F****g technicians bro.

    @pathman2

    Ha ha ha, why do I think Jesus spoke English? Funny that you should ask.
    A woman in Texas running for governor when she as asked about bilingual education she said, “If English was good enough for Jesus is good enough for me” thus she covers all English language warriors like your self, I’m sorry you never heard it before, it is a classic.

    @Evolvedprimate You “thing” you don’t need all them tongues learn English, or get a spell checker.
    I can speak Polish, Gaelic, and English and some Klingon. Why do you “THINK” (not thing) Jesus spoke English, te g?upiec dupek. Ta tu AMADAN.
    Keep evolving, you have a lot of catching up to do on the rest of us.

  • Evolvedprimate says:

    @pathman2
    In how many languages do you read write and converse ? I can only do it in four, English is the third I learned, so if I make a mistake it is because I think in one and write in another.
    When you achieve something similar let me know or perhaps you thing you don’t need all them tongues cauz if English was good enough for Jesus is good enough for you, rite?
    As a polyglot I never make fun of others as I don’t know who I deal with.

  • pathman2 says:

    @Evolvedprimate You are still evolving, as is your English. MUPPET.

  • Evolvedprimate says:

    @pathman2 Actually it is spelled ??????, now you know

  • arnoldcustom says:

  • TheGoldenReflections says:

    There was a thunder and my monitor died after it , i took it apart , tested some diodes and replaced bad ones, voila , works again :)

  • poundu27 says:

    Just because there isnt any bulge on the capacitors, it doesnt mean that its good. You should use a multimeter to check the capacitance, an analog meter to check the resistance and an ESR meter to check the ESR resistance.

  • iwillbebackful says:

    guess what , i did it. only in america, you make me think about to build another super sonic concord, now let’s make america without border for gifted.think about it for 18 box i fix my tv .i mean, you are the reflexion of the CREATOR”.

  • murphyld66 says:

    Great video. I was out walking and I spotted an LCD monitor in a dumpster and I remembered seeing a video about replacing the power capacitors so I pulled it out and took it home. After I plugged in a power cord and turned it on the monitor seemed ok so I plugged it into a computer and it worked. I didn’t have to replace anything. FREE STUFF!!!

  • MAXKC1 says:

    @ sghill99 nice howto vid and your little sidekick at the start had one just like it we called him Sam Whiskey.
    Found a Samsung Sync Master 204B on the curve, useing it now but it flickers and seems to need time to warm up to come on bright and possible short in the cable connection I have to wiggle around for it to come on do you think its a easy fix?

  • mcrayzor1 says:

    cute dog :L

  • hihibob1 says:

    I habe a sony mfm-tsomething monitor and when i turn it on it shows the display for 2-3 sec then the screen goes black
    Please help

  • silentstrike44 says:

    How long should it take for a capacitor to fall out, I’ve been pressing down on one for about 10 minutes and it hasn’t come out yet.

  • las2003 says:

    Hi there can you give me some advice? I have an acer 19′ AL1916W widescreen LCD monitor which is working but the top 1/4 of the screen is very hard to see the rest of the monitor is fine. When you place the mouse in this part of the screen it becomes very hard to see. Is this a cap issue? Or a throwaway? Thanks heaps

  • golf2002corsa says:

    hi there i have a 32″ relisys lcd tv when i turn it on it all comes on and screen lights up but i can not get a display come up how can i fix that. thanks

  • chrizekiel says:

    Great Video

  • 95ps3lover says:

    okay, i want to make sure about this before i start. Today, my friend was about to throw away his SyncMaster 204B LCD monitor. He never used it. I wanted it because i wanted a LCD screen. When i connected the monitor to? my computer, the screen would not light up at all. My friend came over, and he said he could see it very dimly, and i mean very dimly. Like it was still pitch black. I would like your opinion before i start replacing the components. Thank you.
