Re: Gateway Model LP1925 2 seconds to black image is visible with a flashlight
Well after a few hours and some more work like I said I had noticed one bulb flickered when touched. So I went with the assumption that something could be wrong in that area. checked to connections they came apart. There was not enough wire to re solder the connection. Soo i opted to chance it by cutting out a section of the wire and replacing it. After some more testing and adjusting the brightness and setting themes differently it would not shut down. However this is were I ran into my next quandary. I noticed that if the two bulbs from the same set were plugged into the the two ports closest to them (like the should be) the lamps went out....but if you take one lamp wire from top and one from bottom and switch them the monitor stays on at least that is how it seems for now. My gut says it is a problem in the bulbs. But what I am going to do for now is it seems to be staying on. So I am going to run it for several hours and try and force an issue with. Some times when I work on cars the only thing you can do is wait for it to break and then back track the problem to see the cause.. So I am applying the same logic here. cross my fingers and see what happens
