Two of the monitors are a LG L2000C monitors. They have a resolution of 1600x1200 and are using a IPS panel with good viewing angle. That makes them very good for the edge locations in a multi monitor setup.
Opening the monitor was very easy. You just need to be careful when bending up the main cover.
After that it is just a couple of screws to remove the inner cover.
The power supply board is the one to the left.
And my suspicion about bad capacitors was right. As you might see in the picture below the capacitors are a little bulky. It might be a bit hard to see it in the image below. But the top part of the capacitors should be flat. A capacitor that bulk out is not good.
So I now just had to order some new once.
To be able to replace the capacitors I need to removed the entire power supply board and removed all of the bad capacitors.

I then soldered the new capacitors to the board and it now look a lot better.
After putting everything back together the big moment was there. Would the monitor start ?
I connected the power and press the power button. And I got the monitors boot screen. No more blinking of the power led.It is working.
So now both of them are working. And it only cost me around 120 SEK to fix both of them (That price include both the components and the shipping cost ). 120 SEK is around 18 USD (2012-09-28).
Now I only had one 24" monitor left to fix.
Thank you so much for this thorough walkthrough!
ReplyDeleteI had an L2000C die in exactly the same way, and thanks to your excellent information, it is now back from the dead at a cost of ~200 DKK. (I was even able to order the new caps before removing the old ones. Thanks!)
Thanks for guide!
ReplyDeleteThanks for guide!
ReplyDeleteA real advantage of edge-lit LED technology over any behind-the-screen backlighting is that you can create screens that are considerably thinner and lighter. Desktopcon's 240hz monitor
