Repaired BenQ FP93V 19″ LCD Monitor

By on October 14, 2008

The complaint of this BenQ FP93V 19″ LCD Monitor with P/N number 9JL1J72-VWM was no power. As usual  have to check primary side first  and found that four components have problem. It was a 2 ampere main fuse, .22 Ohm current sense resistor, power FET P7NK80ZFP, and PWM IC 1200AP40. Since i do not have the part number for the power FET, K2645 was used instead. After fixed in all of the components and power “On”, the LCD Monitor came back to life again. The monitor is now under burning in test and should not have any problem with substitution number. In fact i have used that part number to substitute into many different types of LCD Monitors. Here are the photos :

    HI Sapto,

    If there is not output voltages from the SMPS then i guess you may need to test out all the components in the smps side.

    Hi Jestine, maybe you could point me in the right direction ! My BenQ FP91G+ has just died. First sign was the brightness menu popping up on the screen a couple of times then a couple of days later the monitor would not power up. It shows NO green light, nothing. On the main power board I've checked the main fuse & have the correct voltage both sides. Not sure what to check next...There is a 11pin output socket on this board and I am getting various voltages on some of the pins but I'm afraid they don't mean much to me! Any help would be appreciated.

    HI Graham,

    In your case it could be a bad MCU in the mainboard. Before that you must check that the SMPS have good and stable output voltages. Getting voltages and getting the right ans stable voltages is two different things. I'm not sure about this model output voltages but generally LCD Monitor voltages should be about 12v, 5 v, 3.3 v or even 2.5 v.

    Hi
    I have a problem with a Benq monitor FP91g + and check all the capacitors, I have the basic tensions inverter 15V, 3.3 V and 5 V, the monitor turns on a few minutes and then off completely as if restart until the LED turns off then on again and so on, hopefully I can help you

    Hi Enrique,

    If the supply voltages to the mainboard are good and stable then most probably the MCU have problem.

    HI Ktgoh,

    Sorry i do not have the diagram and there is no same monitor model in my workshop thus i can't suggest any value for it. You may have to find a diagram that use the 1200ap ic and then check to see what resistor value connected to the pin 8.

    Dear sir,
    I want to ask about my dead old lcd monitor. the brand was i-o data, LCD-A141H. do you have the schematic for this? i think it was power trouble, because no power at all. the fuse is good.

    Hi again Jestine, I contacted you earlier in this post regarding this = "My BenQ FP91G+ has just died. First sign was the brightness menu popping up on the screen a couple of times then a couple of days later the monitor would not power up. It shows NO green light, nothing. On the main power board I’ve checked the main fuse & have the correct voltage both sides. Not sure what to check next…There is a 11pin output socket on this board and I am getting various voltages on some of the pins but I’m afraid they don’t mean much to me! Any help would be appreciated."

    I have now replaced both the main power board and interface board. The monitor worked perfect for another 5 days after which there was no power light showing again, nothing ! I replaced the interface board with another new board ( I got a great deal on these boards so I bought a couple of each) and the display worked perfect again until I shut it down and then no power light again, nothing !! I have checked output voltages on the main board and am getting the correct 3.3v & 5v. Checked the control board and all the switches work ok. I am now not sure what to do and looking for any help. Incidentally, I do have all the schematic circuit diagrams for this monitor if that helps. Thanks.....

    HI Graham,

    This is real challenging. When you have said you have replaced the power/invert board, mainboard and have checked the front panel switch by right it should have solve the problem.

    If you got the output voltages then i do not suspect the power/inverter board. That means it left only the mainboard, front panel board and the wires between the front panel and the mainboard. I suggest that you directly replace the on/off switch and check the cable and retest it again since you have said you already replaced the mainboard.

    Hello Jestine,

    I have an HP L1740 monitor with no power. The powerboard is an Benq one, the inverter part is also on this board.
    I have replaced the FET, PWM IC 1200AP40, opto coupler, transfo from a working HP L1740 screen (the powerboards are the same). All the big resistors on the primary are okay (I have them compared / measured with the working powerboard). After all these changes, the board still doesn't function (dead). I know for sure, that all the parts are good, because the working powerboard is still working).

    I don't have a oscilloscopes, so I cannot see if the pwm controller is working. All the electrolyte caps are tested with a ESR device, and are okay.

    Do you have any idea what the problem could be ?. Or how I can exclude other parts with a digital multimeter ?.

    Thanks for your answer

    Hi Jestine, many thanks for giving your time & thoughts about this BenQ FP91G+ monitor fault. I agree it's certainly challenging ! I have tested the operation of the power switch right back to the plug that connects into the interface board and I clearly get a clean on/off reading on my multimeter. If I select the "buzzer" option on the meter I can actually get the small neon to light up, both orange and green, proving the continuity from the plug. You think changing the whole control board might be the best way to go ? That's if I can get one. Could a faulty backlight stop the "power light" and everything else from working ? If I gave you a copy of the engineers schematics etc. for this monitor think it might give you any other idea's ?
    Thanks again....

    HI Graham,

    Since you have not replace the front control board then you should try it in order to look for an answer. Backlight problem would not cause it to have no power. Thanks for the diagram but i believe it won't help much since you already have the boards for replacement.

    Hi Diamon,

    Is there any output supply from the SMPS because with power LED not lighted up you may have thought it was the power supply board problem. If it is zero volts on all output then your concentration should be in the power primary side. Makes sure the secondary output diode is not shorted. Check that the power IC is receiving supply voltage and if all components are tested good then try replace the power IC again. In very rare cases, sometimes a new power IC could have problem too.

    Hello jestine,

    I have solved the problem with the powerboard.
    There was a smd resistor that was broken (it had no value any more).
    After I had replaced the resistor, the problem was solved 🙂

    Thanks for your input.

    HI Carlos,

    To defeat the protection may have some risk. If the backlight have problem and if the protection did not shutdown, there will be a chance for the lcd monitor to catch fire and etc. If possible check first the backlight condition because usually a bad backlight would cause the display to shutdown.

    Hi,

    I am trying to repair ACER 1916W LCD monitor. When I give power to the monitor it's show me the green LED indicator and after sometimes it goes to yellow from green. To repair it I have removed it's metalic cover and then check it's component. Here I see that it's CFL bulb is not getting any voltage. That's why I have thought that may be the high voltage transformer has gone or may the electrolytic capacitors. But after checking that I see they are ok. But if check them without removing from the PCB it shows nothing but if I remove them they show me they are ok. Here I see everything is OK. Then why the CFL bulb is not getting voltages?

    Please.. Help me..

    Thanks.

    HI Mushfiqur,

    The ccfl not working was due to that mainboard did not send an On signal to the inverter IC. If the VGA cable is connected and the POWER LED light turned from green to yellow then this mean the Micro controller (MCU) programs may have corrupted. It is the mainboard problem since the MCU is located in the mainboard.

    Hi Jestine,

    Thank you for your great site. I have a 17" Benq monitor whick blew up the fuse. I think I have the same problem with this. I have changed the 2A fuse, PWM IC 1200AP40, and a FET. I have not replaced a current sense resistor. Can you tell me where this resistor is located? Any other replacement for it?

    Thank you and look forward to hear from your advise.

    Adding more to my previous post, since replacing the three components, I tried to turn the monitor on but still no power. Maybe something else is the problem. I would like to replace the current sense resister if I only know where it is on the board.

    Thank you.

    It is located at the power FET and usually it has very low ohm. You can use a small value for replacement but not a bigger value.

    The other part that has failed is the 100uf 450volt capacitor..Any suggestions to a webb site i can obtain these parts..Prefably in aust.

    HI Kevin,

    Now totally no output voltage or have little voltage? If totally zero volt this mean there must be still bad components in the power circuit. Ok now i suggest that you turn on the monitor and check the supply voltage to the pwm ic. See how many volt did you get. Sometimes a shorted primary winding in the power transformer also could cause no power symptom.

    If your version of power supply use optoisolator ic and TL431 IC then directly replace it and retest.
