Hi everyone,
I have an LCD computer monitor that suddenly stopped working. I was using it and the sound of an explosion was heard; then nothing, no more image and the LED on POWER neither. It's been about 6 months since this happened. I decide to repair it.
Samsung model: 2493HM
I thought it was the LCD tubes that were broken, but today the POWER (standby) LED flashed.
I believe it's a capacitor, but nothing visual; I thought that with the sound it made, I would see parts shattered, but no.
My idea is to start testing the capacitors on the power side, because by disconnecting the wires connecting the screen, the LED (POWER) still flashes.
I plugged in my laptop to test, and my laptop sees the screen, but nothing appears naturally.
-----------------------
Here is a photo of the fault, why it failed.
Resistance.
Another question:
The resistor which is burnt is .22 ohms, I have some (I know they are Chinese
their measured value is between .4 and .6 ohms wound resistors; is it so serious?
Otherwise I have ordinary resistors of .33 ohms and to measure give .5 ohms.
What is your opinion?
