I’m having trouble turning on my monitor. Each time i go to do so after an extended time (at least 1-2 hours) The display will turn on for a moment then go black. after repeatedly turning it off then back on, it will eventually stay on, but before hand will have varying very short periods of being on before going black. (from practically no time to about 10 or so seconds.) Any ideas as to what could be causing this?
The caps do look like the tops are bulged on a few, and the coverings on some are pretty messed up
Ben Kynelongtail this could be cause by failed/failing capacitors on your power board. You would have to disassemble the monitor and post some images of it with your question. Use this guide for that. It will allow us to see what you see.
