Sounds like what happens to most flat panel LCD monitors. I've fixed half of the ones at work by replacing a couple of caps. Cost about $5 (at radioshack) and took about 30 mins per monitor.

I believe the capacitor at "C20" is 4.6 volts but i forget the micro-farad rating. It wasn't listed on my repair sheet, but before i sent the board out i looked at C20 first because i knew it was a common problem. I didn't see any physical damage so i sent it out instead of just replacing the capacitor. If you look on the board, it has the locations printed next to the components in white. its pretty small but they're all there. C20 is somewhere around the center upper left area (if that makes any sense lol) once you locate the capacitor, the voltage and micro-farad ratings are printed right on it. Its hard to see, but get a flashlight and you'll be able to check it out. |

Re: control 24 psu repair for $40!
Dan.TweekStudios,
Thanks a lot for this information!!...But is this a Electrolitic or ceramic capacitor???.....Look like 4.6volts isn't a standar value voltage....do you? The Phanton Power is affected for this C20 problem???....my control 24 have the 48Volts death. Is the C20 the only root of the problem???...or Is because other parts damaged too? Thanks again! Opacheco. |

Re: control 24 psu repair for $40!
I guess there are plenty of things that can happen to the psu board on your control 24. I know that if C20 is dead, it wont even power on, so i dont know if the phantom power if affected. If you can power on the machine, but the phantom power is the only problem, then i would imagine it is something other than C20, or even the psu itself. But i wouldn't be the one to ask lol. Ive never heard of only the phantom dieing before. Its worth sending it out to get tested though. Or just grab a voltage meter and make sure all the contacts are supplying the correct voltage. I'm npot even sure which part of the board handles the phantom though.. Wish i could help more!

Re: control 24 psu repair for $40!
I had my power supply repaired by Skynet last week, all is working great they were awesome to deal with. before i hung up the phone with them i asked their repair dept what the lifespan of the power supply was....... the response was 2 years...
after that the c20 cap dries out and needs to be replaced. NICE |
