FLAT PANEL MONITOR

Hello,



Does any body have any experience working on Flat panel monitors.



This is my first one. Its a DELL 1501FP It appears to be made by Phillips. Wish I could get some service info on it



Will only display one third of the screen correctly, the rest appears to be some other scan rate. Like a smeared screen. Thats at 800x600



Dell website says it will support 1024x768 but it wont even display anything readable at that rate. Will not display set up function either.



Any ideas would help. Thanks John

There is little you can do with these beyond the very basics. Check main/expected power supply voltages, make sure no connectors are loose, esr the electrolytic capacitors, etc. You are not going to get a service manual on these. Even if the service manual were available, they get repaired to board level. As a result most times when they are out of warranty the only source for a working board is another junk unit as the manufactures rarely keep parts available long outside of warranty, if at all.
