Re: V7 D22W12 Monitor Color Issues
Huge thanks 1supertech, my display is 100% perfect now. The vertical lines I thought might be dead LCDs are cured too. Those lines were present prior when the colors were good or bad. No color issues thus far, the color doesn't need to be tweaked in the LCD Menu buttons any more, and those lines are gone.
While it looks like the ribbon going to the LCD was attached, the one side tang/hook wasn't clicked into place. I removed the ribbon, cleaned it with alcohol and reattached it making sure that the hook clicked. It took surprising...

V7 D22W12 Monitor Color Issues
Hey Badcaps, another question regarding my revived 22" monitor.
Previously, I had a 2 seconds to black issue on a monitor I knew nothing else about.

Here is the thread on that. I am a novice on board repair, and took the monitor apart, replaced the obviously failed cap, put 'er back together, and have been using it ever since.
Very intermittently, and I can't find a pattern to why it happens, but the monitor will occasionally botch the colors. I get pinks and greens... -

Success! I was able to obtain an VGA cable early this morning from an undisclosed source. Monitor is looking good.

Oh BadCaps.net forum, how I've failed you! I finally got my replacement caps in the mail today. Did some pretty novice cap replacement, but I did manage to replace the obviously bad cap. Reassembled the screen, hung it on the wall...
...and...
I haven't a stinking video cable to test it with. The monitor has VGA or DVI inputs. I've got HDMI cables, but no simple VGA or DVI. The CRT that I'm using to type this sob story has a fixed in place VGA cable. It cannot be removed from the back...Leave a comment:

Update: I've got caps coming in the mail tomorrow, so the monitor will go under the knife in the evening. Hopefully post a 'Wahoo' post shortly after.
I know these pics suck, I've seen the suggestions of taking pics during full sunlight, but I have NOT found anytime during the day to do such a thing....Leave a comment:

Just stumbled upon this video while educating myself on cap replacement on PCBs. Exact same LCD, exact same failed cap. Looks like a different brand cap, but same location.Re: V7 D22W12 Monitor 2 seconds to b...same location.Re: V7 D22W12Leave a comment:

I'm new to LCD repair, so CCFL is like the CFLs that were supposed to replace incandescents, but didn't work well? I take it that is the light source behind the LC's?
The screen does work perfectly for a moment, so they clearly light, but by reading the sticky, it seems like one of the bulbs may be overtaxing the circuits, and you elimate that possiblity by swapping in known good CCFLs?
Forgive me, away from keyboard, in WVA...On a phone, so typing is exhasiting.
Anyhow, I'm glad to hear...Leave a comment:

V7 D22W12 Monitor 2 seconds to black ILPI-033 Caps
Hey there guys, truly hidden gem here on the internet. Not sure how 'hidden' it is, but I just hadn't stumbled upon this forum yet. Sorry, that could've gone in my intro post.
Anyhow, I have a V7 D22W12 LCD monitor which I'm pretty sure just needs a little TLC, and it may become usable again. Once connected, it will display a desktop for ~2 seconds, then go blank. My internet research on such matters suggests fried capacitors. I have fixed circuit boards previously with my tremor riddled hands, and figured, why not give this one a shot?
I pulled apart the LCD down... -

I've stumbled upon your forum as I'm trying to figure out an old computer monitor. I'll launch a post in the section soon. I've browsed the forums a bit, but am struggling to find the info I need. Looks like you guys provide excellent...Leave a comment:
