Troubleshooting DELL E173FPB LCD Monitor with power blink symptom is quite easy if you know the right procedure to test it. There are two sections in the monitor that can cause power to blink. It is either primary or secondary section or even sometimes both sections can be faulty. So to isolate as which section is giving problem. I used an automobile 12 volt light bulb (brake light) and connect it between the 12 volt supply line and cold ground with the fuse removed. If the bulb still blink chances is very high the power primary section have problem.

Do not overlook the other voltages line as well such as the 3.3 and 5 volts. If any components shorted that gets the supply from the 5 and 3.3 volts, the power also may blink. If the 12 volts bulb lights up we can assume that the power supply is working fine and something shorted further down the line that makes the power supply to blink. If the bulb lights and you continue to check the power section, it will be going to waste your time. You should now concentrate on the secondary section circuit such as the four transistors C5707 that drive the high voltage transformer in the inverter board.

Just think these transistors like horizontal output transistor (HOT) in the CRT monitor that drive the flyback transformer where it worked so hard and chances for it to breakdown is very high. Checking the four transistors off board found one of them have a shorted reading with an ohmmeter.. This transistor can get faulty by itself or it could be some others components that caused it to develop a short circuit such as a defective high voltage transformer but all of the four high voltage transformers checked to be okay with ringer and ohmmeter test.

Now, here is the secret that I'm going to reveal. If you just replace the defective transistor only, chances is very high the transistor or another C5707 transistor will breakdown again. Usually what a technician does is to test the other transistors with either an analog or digital meter. If you use both meters to test the transistors then you have missed out on the faulty transistor because both meters won't reveal to you the hfe reading of the transistors. Only some digital meters have the hfe checking feature. In other words, you have to use test the hfe reading of a transistor. Although you can replace the other three transistors directly, why not we do some detective work to find the cause of the problem?

Using the Peak electronic atlas component analyzer, I could clearly see the different between a good and a bad transistor. A good C5707 transistor has hfe reading from 320 to about 390 but the bad one reads 467! The other two C5707 transistors have reading about 350. In the above case only two C5707 transistors were replaced and you save the other two. I had burn in test this LCD monitor for many days and it worked perfectly fine.

Conclusion- Whether you repair the DELL E173FPB LCD Monitor or any other model such as the E172FPB or E171FPB, basically the testing method is the same. You could also use this testing procedure on other brand of LCD Monitor too.

Toyota Aurion Joins Queensland Police Service Fleet of Vehicles

Toyota’s new Aurion Sportivo SX6 and prodigy V6 will join the Queensland Police Service fleet of operational and support vehicles. Queensland Police has chosen the Aurion after undertaking extensive tests at its Mount Cotton driver training centre.

Toyota has provided their Aurion for testing to Queensland Police prior to the car’s official launching. This has provided the Queensland Police the opportunity to evaluate the car’s various abilities especially in terms of braking, cornering and handling performance. The Queensland Police was also able to test the Aurion’s compatibility for internal fittings, lights and sirens.

According to Inspector Maurice Poiner, Queensland Police’s Officer in Charge of Transport, the Aurion provided the service with an alternative to the V6 that they traditionally select. He further stated, "We were very interested in looking at the Aurion when we first heard about it. In testing it was very well received by the members of the driver training unit. It met all our needs. Therefore, we are more than willing to put it in the field."

Inspector Poiner also pointed out that the Aurion’s front-wheel drive design with Vehicle Stability Control, Traction Control and anti-lock brakes with Brake Assist made it suitable to the grueling police work.

"The front-wheel drive Aurion meets the demands of police work and has a number of advantages in high density public areas."

The Sportivo SX6 will be used in both marked and unmarked roles while the Prodigy will be utilized for non-active police duties. The Aurion police cars have a strong on-road presence and the Queensland Police’s selection was a great endorsement for Toyota’s new model as stated by Toyota Queensland Government Fleet Sales Manager Les Calvert. The addition of Aurion has widened the array of Queensland Police existing Toyota fleet that includes HiLux, HiAce, Coaster and LandCruiser 70, 100 and Prado.

How do I install an Electronic brake control to my 2007 Dodge 2500 pickup?

My truck came with the trailer package, rear connector in bumper. I am now trying to install a Prodigy electronic brake controller. Shouldn't my Dodge 2500 have a connector somewhere under the dash?

If you don't already have one, pick up a Prodigy to Dodge pigtail. It makes the installation simple. http://www.tekonsha.com/bch3020.html

Check out this thread on Pirate for the pics, and how-to:

I've ben using my Prodigy for years now (it was in my 95, and now in my 04 Dodge) and love it!

PS - it looks like the pics on that thread are kaput, which stinks. On my 04, the connector is above the pedals (it's blue colored, IIRC). I had to unplug the main harness connector to get room to plug in the controller.

Good luck!
