I fixed my monitor successfully by following your guide. You are my hero!🎉 For others who are going to repair their monitor. The three bigger caps are for the IC supply rail which doesn't not pass 5v. Just use any 100uf cap to replace them. While the small cap is for LDO's input, where the voltage could be 5-12v. I am replacing them with my SMD MLCC cap and they work just fine.
Came here looking to find out how to get this monitor apart LOL and stayed for the down to business video with no hype or dumb intro! I'm glad I watched the whole video because as many electronic things as I've seen die from the capacitor plague, I would have gone right for the power supply first! Thank you for the clear and well done video.
oh oh, I have the same on a DELL monitor but only replaced the PSU capacitor thinking they were faulty wich appears they weren't . I was about to throw it to the bin when I saw your video and changed the capacitors on the VIDEO decoding board. Thanks a lot !!
Mister you are a real savior !! Thank you very much for your great effort . i just managed to fix my dell E2210HC i had the same problem the capacitors were the fault. Thanks once again 💟
My issue wasn't a circuitry thing, it was the tape holding the circuit board to the panel. Because permanently affixing electronics with tape is clearly such a good idea... which is why I fixed it with new tape cuz I'm too lazy to come up with something better. But thank you, you were vital in helping figure out how to open the darn thing.
A little feedback: Your attention to the photography and camera angles was very good until the very end when you didn't show the screen when testing it. Your instructions were well thought out and delivered. Good diction and pleasant speaking voice. Only suggestion is to spend less time on the reassembly and more on showing the actual soldering job for the capacitors. That may be the most difficult part for most shade tree technicians.
Thank you for the constructive feedback. The splash screen at the end was where issues were present. I could have provided an input, but the splash page would previously freeze (not scroll across the screen), so I figured it was enough to show it works. Also the reason I didn't show the soldering is because it's not supposed to be a video showing how to solder, but simply a video showing what you need to do to repair the monitor. Regardless, it would make for a more complete video, so I will take this into consideration for future videos. Thanks again for watching!
Great video! I think i would remove the power supply board for inspection/ cleaning. Is it possible to place a small heat sink on the transistor to help dissipate heat away from the board? Thats a great idea to loosen the front bezel, then remove the back cover! Thank you 🤓 for my level of repairing electronics I would tend to replace all 4 caps with matching values.
When you're repairing 40 of them in a row, you're not really concerned about cleaning and inspecting power supplies that are working just fine. A heatsink isn't going to do any good when there's no airflow inside of the monitor. Heat is going to build up just the same, it will just take slightly longer. Not enough time to make a difference. The solution: a fan, even a small one, but who's gonna put a fan in their monitor? Probably nobody.
Great vid man thanks, I'd have never guessed the caps that looks fine were bad on my own. Now I gotta order some to fix mine. Can't find a logic board for it anywhere.
My dad brought me two of these from his work and they had issues starting up (powering on) but once they did they were fine, I replaced the capacitors for 10 bucks and I haven’t had a problem with them for months now.
Hi, do you think this method will be fixed? We have the same model of monitor. My problem is 1. When I browse a picture, the monitor is suddenly off. (I feel like my monitor is afraid in some colors) 2. It has a display but I can't turn it off. Buttons freezes. 3. Display suddenly moved to the right. The left side has a black border. 4. Same problem as yours. 5. Monitor suddenly off and on and off. Then I can't turn it on. The temporary solution is to unplug the power cable and plugin. I'm still using my monitor but I lost my patience ;-;
@@ri5ux435 Thanks! I have another question, I just bought capacitors 100uF 25v and 10uf 50v. But the seller gave me 100uF 50v instead of 10uF. Can I still use that capacitor to this monitor?
I have same model as you have. My problem exactly was same. I followed your instructions and replaced 25v caps with 50V,100uf. Now monitor does not freeze but it goes to power save mode when I connect it to pc or laptop.
The original caps are 11mm in height and 6.3mm in diameter and the pitch is 2.5mm. If you only have access to the 8mm wide caps, I think they still fit as per the blue one at 14:37 which appears wider than 6.3mm.
I have some skills in soldering, so I think I could do this repair, but I don't know where I would get parts! What kind of of places could I get these parts at?
Typically you can order the parts needed on eBay, but most of the time I salvage components from other damaged electronics or old electronics that are going to be recycled anyways. I don't believe any local electronics components stores like Radioshack exist anymore.
@@ri5ux435 Ah alright, I will look into those sources and see if I can find what I need. One more thing I forgot to add: You were saying in the video that the source of the problem was that the small black component got hot, damaging the capacitors. Well I have some very small heat syncs, so I was wondering if it would be advisable to put one onto the component? Either way, thank you!
@@drakeisacake A heatsink would bring the heat away from the component and out of the PCB, but the heatsink will still get hot over time. The only way to resolve the issue is to relocate the capacitors by following the traces back to another area or by adding a fan. A fan will remove the heat from the entire area, but is also absolutely overkill.
Hey! I'm back again. Got busy with college, but I was watching this video back getting ready for the repair, and I noticed something weird- At 14:39 did you mean to say 100 microfarad instead of 10 microfarad? I know the voltage is not the same, and that's ok to do with capacitors, but I thought that the microfarad value had to be the same? Thanks for any reply! Also, since the heat travels up the legs of the capacitors, I think if I make the legs longer with wires, (instead of trying to trace them back) then that would not let the heat get to the capacitors. And while you said implementing a fan would be overkill... I kinda like the idea... if I do it I'll tell you! Again, thanks for any reply!
@@ri5ux435 hi it turns on and gives an image of analog or digital connection and than goes black. I can turn it off and on again and than does the same.
4 years later and this video was still the perfect solution, thank you, I would have never guessed the capacitors on the logic board.

Have you tried a different input or different input cable? Chances are it's just a cable/connection issue.
Thank you
is the monitor 1080p?
Great job fella !. Thanks a lot !
Do you happen to have a link to the caps, or know the spacing of the radials so I can order them before I open it up?
I'm new at this kind of stuff.
The original caps are 11mm in height and 6.3mm in diameter and the pitch is 2.5mm. If you only have access to the 8mm wide caps, I think they still fit as per the blue one at 14:37 which appears wider than 6.3mm.

is this monitor able to be vertical?
With the original stand, no. You can find other Dell stands that fit it, that do rotate.
Very nice 👌 bro.
How many hz does it have
60hz
What if its not the capacitors.... changed them.
What does your monitor do or not do? May be a failed backlight.
@@ri5ux435 hi it turns on and gives an image of analog or digital connection and than goes black. I can turn it off and on again and than does the same.
