    Samsung Syncmaster 205bw

    Hello, I replaced all of the caps and the monitor worked perfect for about a week.

    I made a post earlier regarding a cap replacement here --> https://www.badcaps.net/forum/showthread.php?t=57249

    Then it started having unusual display issues. It would show random colors or suddenly fade into a white screen and when unplugged and plugged back in, it would reset it and go back to normal. However, now the screen is showing as really dark with a red tint to it and unplugging it to "reset" it does not work. Please see photos attached. I have also posted pictures of both the power and video boards.

    Can anyone please share your knowledge and help me troubleshoot this? Thanks!

    Normally bad caps on the Psu can damage mainboard caps, have you checked the mainboard caps with an esr meter ?

      No I don't have an esr meter. Is there a cheap one you could recommend? Also, I've never replaced anything surface mounted so that will be another learning curve. I hope I'm not in way over my head.

        I can recommend You cheap LCR meter based on ATMega 328 - You can buy it on Aliexpress for about 4-10 US $
