Step 3
Finding the capacitors
- After you flip the metal bracket, it should look something like this.
- Identify the faulty capacitors, remove them and solder new ones.
- In my case, those marked in blue were busted and prevented the monitor from working.
- For good measure I replaced all of them with brand new ones. It is a good idea that you do too.

This repair guide helped me fix my LG Flatron W2242T 22" computer monitor that powered off but would not power back on.
After making the repair, replacing bulging capacitors C203, C204, C205, and C212 with replacements of the same value, the monitor powered back on and works again!
