    Dell E172fpb

    I have this monitor and when i turn it on, the pic comes on for a second then goes off. The light stays green and does NOT flash. If i put a flashlight up to the monitor i can see the image. Is there any easy fix?


    I have seen the 7 page thread but is it just saying to buy a new board? if so where can i get one?

    Erm, not to sound like a jackass but read that thread...

    It has detailed troubleshooting tips and what usally is broken in them detailed...

      Thanks, well from what they said from that thread was that every time they replaces the bad parts on it, the monitor broke again. All i found was to buy a new inverter board.

      I did find a repair kit on ebay for this and people seem to like the kit. Should I just try that as it is only 15 bucks?

          I have the same monitor with the same problem. The green light stays on and the screen only displays an image for a second. When you shine a flashlight on the screen, you can see an image. Is this a problem with the backlight or the inverter/power board? I'm a newbie, so any help would be appreciated. By the way, what fix did you find on ebay, Guod?
