Viewsonic VE710B Need some help/advice

Hello all


I have a Viewsonic VE710B that slowy started to turn off by it self/wouldn't wake up from screen saver mode. Used to happen only here and there,but started to degrade. The screen would stay black but would have the green light blinking. Now it's nothing, sometimes It will breifly turn on then off.

Heard the Caps were a prime suspect so I dug in.
Caps look okay too me all flat at the top.
How can I test the fuse and caps with a multimeter?
And can I test the Power/inverter with a multimeter?

Heres some pics of what I working with...

What are my options on trouble shooting/fixing this LCD?
Iv'e seen a page with someone attaching a old cheap PSU from a computer to on the back of the LCD.

Wires from PSU to small board in LCD (analog board?)
2 Black
2 Red
1 Blue
1 Orange
1 Yellow



Thanks,

Unfortunately cheap nasty TV's like this one don't last long, and are rarely worth fixing - assuming you can even obtain parts. To check the capacitors you need an ESR meter.
