Hello Everyone... I've spent the last couple of days absorbing the wealth of knowledge on this board -- THANKS!
I have a Samsung SyncMaster 920 19" widescreen LCD monitor that has recently started having troubles starting. When I apply power (with a VGA cable attached to the PC), the blue light comes on, I hear something in the power supply making a bit of noise, then it turns off. It seems to be about a 2 second cycle. I've been able to get it to start a handful of times, and it works fine once it is started.
Note: If I remove the LCD ribbon, I can get the monitor to power on each time, and respond properly (obviously with an all-white screen).
So I started digging around and I found that there is a swollen Samxon GK 1000uF 10v cap on the board. I would like to recap the PSU and the control board, but I'm having a bit of trouble matching up the proper replacement parts (ESR/ripple/etc). I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction on which series replacements I should use. My electronics knowledge is a little rusty, but from what I've been reading, ripple current needs to be equal or higher. Its mostly ESR I'm having trouble comparing. Do I just compare the impedance, or is there more to it?
Here are the caps I'd like to replace (information was collected from the various data sheets):
Thanks in advance!
