Peripherals: HP Pavilion F1703 TFT Monitor Blackout
Worked for me too!
by scottdmorgan - 7/5/05 9:02 AM In reply to: HP just replaced mine for free (out of warranty) by dlmillI just spoke with Michael at HP. My f1703 monitor is now 5 months out of warranty. I gave him my serial number and he indicated that the problem may be due to a manufacturing defect. HP is sending me a replacement monitor today. I just need to ship back the old one. I used a credit card as collateral until HP receives my old monitor. Thanks for the advice!
Cold solder on coils of HP f1703
by vpytko - 2/5/09 3:37 PM In reply to: Hewlett Packard unsympathetic by roostyI am not very savvy but I have opened the case and located a Mannequin Key Board with what appears to be 4 black square items with five solder points each. By any chance is this what I need to resolder or do I have to go further under the LCD panel?
Several areas to check

There are 4 transformes on the left about 1" X 1 1/2" that you need to resoulder. There is 4 transistors by them, larger ones C5706 these go bad alot.They power the transformers. There is a fuse on the board labeled FS101 that cold be bad. I have fund all of these to cause the same problem I'm sure 1 item stated the domino effect so if you fix them all at once you will probably be good. Be sure you have a proper power supply on it also.
Should be 12 -13 volts DC with at least 2.5 amps of current.
These transistors and power supplies can be obtained on Ebay for e reasonable price.

by wirelesswendy - 1/27/06 7:06 AM In reply to: Class Action Investigation - HP 1703 Pavilion Monitor by maldomanHow to repair the Blackout problem with the F1703 Monitor
by LH-UK-TECH - 6/25/05 3:39 AM In reply to: HP Pavilion F1703 TFT Monitor Blackout by germansalThe problem is the inductors on the driver board which is screwed to the back of the lcd panel, resolder all 8 devices, refer to my more detailed instructions posted near the end of this forum.
The repair will take less than an hour requires a crosshead screwdriver and a soldering iron.
Thanks!
by whizkid - 6/27/05 9:53 AM In reply to: How to repair the Blackout problem with the F1703 Monitor by LH-UK-TECHThank you for basically telling me that the HP 1703 monitor sucks and that I should not buy it! Thanks again!
Thanks for the info
by wmccomb - 7/15/05 12:09 PM In reply to: How to repair the Blackout problem with the F1703 Monitor by LH-UK-TECHI was a little nervous about taking the monitor apart. The hardest part was removing the cover. After that it was pretty easy. Thanks for instructions.
HP's response

Looks like the threat of litigation may have spurred HP to act like a responsible manufacturer.
Too Late
by screwHP2 - 7/10/05 4:04 PM In reply to: HP's response by tsmittyThis is interesting.
But I must say it is too late, because
1) I will NOT buy HP product ever again
2) As long as Girard Gibbs & De Bartolomeo is willing I will proceed with a legal option.
Unless HP CEO comes to this forum and apologize to everyone that HP offended.
it actually worked
by aebiehl - 7/10/05 6:13 PM In reply to: Revision number not listed by aebiehlHP actually said they are sending a replacement. I should have it by Friday. Then I have to return the defect. So far it sounds good. However, the phone call did take 35 minutes and the tech initially didn't want to help. That link info saved to day!
Thanks!
