Afraid not, as I have no details of that now - just search eBay for your LCD screen model number and get something from a seller with good rating and the item looks similar! (Input board, inverter board, controller board + cables - presuming you are doing this process for the same iMac model as I did)

Thanks for pointing out this though, I have updated the guide accordingly.

Good luck - sure that will work fine :-)

Yup 12v - mine is a 5A output

Just used some aluminium tape - a couple of layers as the stuff I had was quite thin

Ok, so the process for your monitor is different - the backlight cannot be driven by the controller board + new inverter like it is with my setup.

You will be using the existing inverter attached to the monitor, and to drive that you need a separate 24v power supply.

The second eBay item you have listed includes a power supply (the black square object to the bottom right) and this will drive both the inverter / backlight as well as the controller board (so you will not need a separate supply for the controller board).

See this page for someone you has done this - https://pbase.com/brucemac/2019octdispla... and have a look at the comments / links on the photo.

I think the second eBay item should get you completely sorted with all parts you need - but looking at the price, a new 24” monitor probably wouldn’t cost a huge amount more…

So depends if you are just trying to save money / recycle or looking for a project to work on and have hopefully have a cool monitor at the end!?

I think it was written on the back / edge of the monitor panel, so only accessible after you deconstruct the iMac. You may need to carefully remove some of the fools shielding if it is covering the back of the panel.

I believe the iMac G5 monitor is different and has a self-contained driver board already as part of it.

I am aware that some people have used a different approach with the G5 iMac, self-constructing a DVI cable (using its existing display controller board and power supply - see here https://forums.macrumors.com/attachments...

Aside from that route, whether kits like the ones used for Intel iMacs exist / same process can be done instead, I am not sure - first things first you need to work out why panel you have :-)

Only thing I can think of is connecting with a different cable (so if using VGA cable, try DVI or HDMI etc)?

If still no luck sounds like that is the max res the controller board OR the graphics card on your computer supports…

Looking further, it seems the way for connecting up your monitor is quite different - this image which comes with a converter kit seems to show using the existing iMac power supply / inverter - https://i.ebayimg.com/00/s/NjAxWDgwMQ==/... - rather than the kit coming with it included - it might be worth asking this seller for more advice http://stores.ebay.co.uk/eqstore/

My kit was just powered by a single 12V DC 4A external PSU.

Thanks and good luck!

The yellow part is the LCD backlight inverter board - used to power the CCFL backlight tubes within the monitor - my kit came with the controller board and backlight inverter board together, and I would recommend looking for a similar kit :-)

Given the cheapness of monitors these days, I wouldn’t say this is necessarily the most economical option - I just liked the quality of colour rendering my iMac screen gave, so seemed worth it :-)
