Samsung LCD Repair
The monitor problem is on the Samsung power supply board, you will notice three bad capacitors on the secondary side output voltages. LCD monitor power supply failures aren’t always easy to spot, but in this case it was very clear that something was wrong, bulging capacitors indicate bad capacitors. So first thing you should do when repairing Samsung monitors is visually inspect any of these electrolytic capacitors, on primary or secondary side power supply, to see if any are bulging.
In this case of power supply problem I found 2 bad capacitors of 820uF 25V and 1 of 330uF 25V all were rated at 105°c. Unsolder old capacitors and replace them by new one. Even if not all the three caps were bulged, I recommend that you replace them all as that will not cost you much money. It is better to use a higher voltage capacitors for replacement 35V instead of 25V (lower ESR), this will make the life of these components much longer and your Samsung LCD monitor repair successful. Also you can use a 1000uF capacity for all these caps but not under the original value, only be sure that you have enough space as they will be bigger in size. Do not forget to respect the polarity of the replaced components before soldering or it will explode!
As soon as you replace the three bad capacitors on your faulty Samsung monitor, you need to put every thing in place and you will get a working LCD monitor. Congratulation this act will save the planet and your pocket also!
