Sam DeGonia Posted on Nov 10, 2017

I have a e173fpb-the power comes on the screen comes up fine but I have horizontal lines flashing thru the screen. I can see them better when the screen goes dark-looke like a 3" section pulsates horizontaly these lines. I checked for bulging cpas and have replaced the small transistors and the small fuse but have the same problem.

    Hi Sam DeGonia, I want to help you with your question, but I need more information from you. Can you please add details in the comment box?
    the screen is bad.
    what is your question?
    to buy all the modules inside 1 by 1
    you go broke.
    there is no schematic on this monitor.
    a refurb at walmart is $40 to 60 bucks
    why waste hard earned cash on any dead monitor.
    if it fails on 2 PCs the monitor is bad.
    not only that, but is trash resoluition

    1280 x 1024

    do you have the pC set to
    1280 x 1024
    you must, or what happens can be bad.
    that is MAX
    be there. or you get black screen, lines or
    and error (OUT OF RANGE)

    if you twist the screen frame gently and lines change that is a bad LCD>

    this screen is only worth $20 used and working
    dead worth zero. or like this.

    ITS OLD AND WITH A SQAUARE SCREEN 4:5
    A PIG, LOTS FOR SALE WORKING ON FEABAY FOR NOTHING, IF love of a pig is cool.

    some of these have CCFL main board and CCLF lamps, that long ago burned out.
    never buy any CCFL monitor.
    buy 2010 or newer with LED,
    the module is $9 at ebay.
    the LCD panels are rare now, way too old and why buy 4:5 panels.

SOURCE: tried to fix dell e172fpb

You must re-solder all the transformer joints (four of them next to the transistors) for a fix. There are cold joints on the transformers that break, causing the transistors to fail. Reheat the joints and add just a TOUCH of solder to them on each and every lead. Don't use too much solder, or you'll cross connect the leads.

That'll fix it.

SOURCE: dell e173fpc

That is a slightly different power supply board if it is the one I am thinking of.l It is similar in style but there is a 1000mf 16v capacitor that once you replace it it will work.

Video cards that can handle two monitors at the same time have cables with two plugs on the monitor end.

If your video cable has two plugs on the monitor end, try the other plug.

SOURCE: I have a similar problem to one posted a few

Look real close at the solder joints on the inverter transformer pins, and the transitors. What usually happen is that the cold solder joints will mess up the bias on the transistors or causes arcing and that will take out the transistors, you need good magnifier glass to see, you will see ring/cracking around the component's leads.

It will get to the point that the transistors 2sc5707/5706, and also still should look for bad caps.

My P50 vizio hdtv has horizontal and vertical lines running thru the screen....I was wondering if this is an expensive repair.thanks...Kahuna

Lines through a flat panel (especially moving or flashing lines) are indicative of a faulty power supply. Take it to an electronics repair shop. Should cost about $130.
If the lines are static (not moving), then you've got a problem with an image processor or the column drivers- the cost can vary wildly for the image processor. If the column drivers are messed up; you need a new tv.

There are vertical lines appearing on the screen. the lines come and go.

The lines could be a broken or faulty video cable (VGA, HDMI) whichever your using. Try replacing the cable, if it persists it could be a faulty or broken screen.
