I was 'gifted' with the above monitor, powers up but no display. On the inverter board (#5EL2J04011), I found one of the 2 transistors driving the center ccfl transformer had burned up.
My issue is the Rohm SP8M3 mosfets aren't available in the USA unless I go to China. I did find the Fairchild FDS8958B mosfet available from Mouser and Digikey. These mosfets appear to be better than the originals.
Question: Should I replace all 6 for a balanced drive of the ccfl section?
Obviously, I plan to recap the power supply and inverter to eliminate the Elite problem although none are bloated.
I'll post pictures of the inverter board tomorrow.
