I also found a complete service manual for the BenQ in less than 5 minutes.
If only this Daytek was that simple lol
The big problem with the Daytek occurred back in post 46 where we failed to recognize that the output resistance was too low. If we had caught the problem then this thread would have been much shorter.
As far as repairing monitors is concerned, the parts kits are the equivalent of the 'paint by number' sets. They are good for getting a working monitor PROVIDED the fault is the common failure, but they sure don't teach you much.

Never be afraid to try something new. Remember, amateurs built the ark. Professionals built the Titanic.
And the result is......Daytek = Fixed....BenQ = Fixed I am back to dual monitors!!! HUGE improvement over the single IBM C51 lol
BenQ was a walk in the park because there was a previous thread on that monitor that explained the problem as well as a protection circuit. https://www.badcaps.net/forum/showthread.php?t=4304 When I get another LCD I am gonna take the BenQ down and have a stab at the protection circuit.
As for the Daytek, this has been hell and back lol. The 471k caps I ordered, I tested 4 and they all turned out to be 29nf so maybe I got a bad batch IDK but I left the current ones in there, put in the new D444's, lifted 2 solder pads in the process, and got so happy that it worked I forgot to switch out the Radio Shack caps and order Panasonics. Oh well the Daytek is done, it's working and and I'm gonna follow the whole if it ain't broke don't fix it thing for now. If anything happens to the Daytek for forgetting to change those caps I know where to look now.
I usually shut my monitors off at night but my test for them both is I am going to leave them both on for the next 2 days straight.
I have also now ordered that Repair LCD monitors book off the net and it looks like it has some GREAT info in it.
Thank you to everyone who has helped me out with this monitor especially PlainBill and jetadm123. Gonna start flippin' through that book but it's a given I will hit another snag along the way & I'll be back so until then.......

Congratulations!!! It's scant consolation, but the repairs that have you tearing your hair out are the ones that teach you the most.

Excellent work! Glad you kept at it! Too bad about the ceramic caps. Also, we now know of at least a substitute mosfet that will work on your board. Keep up the good work.
