Display Dim In HP L1955 19″ LCD Monitor
The complaint for this HP L1955 model HSTND-2B01 19″ LCD Monitor was dim display. After opened up the cover i saw some burnt mark at the inverter board. Further checking found 3 of the 4 C5707 push pull transistors shorted and front side puntured with a hole! No only that, both the p-channel FET D10PF06 also shorted and have some burnt mark in it too. The inverter fuse already open circuited!
Since i do not have the original of the D10PF06 I used an equivalent part number to test it out. I switched “On” the display and it shutdown after 1 to 2 seconds! I thought it could be the backlight problem didn’t realized that it was the substitution part number that gave problem. I used a 15″ LCD Monitor to test out the 19″ backlights (4 backlights) and proven all of the backights were working fine.
The stock that i have FQU11P06 already used up and can’t test the set. I ordered it yesterday and got it today. I took out the replacement number and put in the FQU11P06 PCHANNEL FET, the set came back to life! I have tested it for a while and was not hot to touch. I will run the full test again under Windows high resolution-hope everything is okay.
Conclusion-a wrong replacement of the p-channel FET may lead you think that it was the backlights or inverter IC fault. If possible get the original part number.

I am working on the same monitor but i have no idea how to identify if the c5707 push pull transistors are burnt, i dont see any bulging on the transistors. i should clarify that i dont get a dim display on this unit but a black screnn with a resposive power button and power switch.

HI Jose,
You need to remove the transistor and test it with meter.

HI Kazi,
I guess you may have to reprogram the EEprom IC.

HI William,
Is all the output voltages good from the power supply? Does the inverter ic have any supply voltage?

Hi Hassan,
Noise usually comes from inductor or transformer. Try open up the monitor and gently know the inductor/transformer with the handle of the screw drive to see if the sound will go away or not.
