Hi,
I have a Acer 1716B LCD monitor. It was working fine and then one day no picture, just black. No backlight from what I could tell. The power light blinks green. I took it apart and didn't see any bad caps. I also took a ESR meter and tested them all. I didn't come across any with high ESR. All seemed to be in range or rather close. My meter tests in circuit and also tests Capacitance. I know many times it tests High capacitance in circuit but I don't think the Caps are a problem at this point capacitance wise. I think they would be much lower if they where in circuit, but obviously it is possible. Nothing is bulging or leaking. Everything I ran across on line pointed to bulging caps. Any and all help is greatly appreciated. I would really like to get this monitor going if possible. Reasonably.
Thanks,
Nick
