FIMI - Philips Computer monitor Model: FSR871CV (20/21" ) (looks like trintron screen) Manufactured Italy June 1994 UL # 18C9 This may also be cross listed as half a dozen diffrent models including C2082DAS and others amoung several differnt brand names and model numbers. --This is a possible cross list for this 20? monitor PHILLIPS C2082DAS (PCXAU-F) same as DEC FSR871CV, COMPAQ 480/480p/481, QVISION 200, DIGITAL 2038 or FIMI GZM 1323 Dead--no high voltage, base display indcates Gen Fault. Some testing finds no blown fuses that I can detect. V815 is shorted it is a THD400 Which the closes reference is a 1500V 16A switching transistor... A web search shows evidence of some history of this problem but no one is talking (ERAUS shows a lot but don't have a subcription to it if any one does and can look it up that would be appreciated). This monintor was given to me by my brother-in-law after it failed so finally had some free time to dig into it. Anyone have a schematic and/or a repair Senerio for this one. Nightmare construction on this one, board, layouts and multiple sheild layers.. Help! This one is a hard one. Did find one sugestion on the web about replacing the transistor with a C3998 (B&D $19.75 its a 1500V 25A transistor) pulling a diode replacing an IRF730 removing capaciotrs and replacing one with a jumper but also found counter indications too.
