    Hanns-G, Hissing backlight then goes off.

    I have a Hanns-G HSG 22" monitor that I bought for our church from eBay. It worked well for about 3 months never being shut off. One day I thought, Hmm I should shut it off.... what a mistake. The next time it was powered up it did the infamous 2 seconds to black. I brought it to my shop expecting fried inverter transformers and or fat caps but found none nor any other part that seemed bad. Encouraged by this site I recapped the whole thing to no avail. So I found a new power supply / inverter board on the net (new) and bought it, that didn't fix it. No wonder I couldn't find anything wrong with the old board!

    So now it has to be the back light right?
    One of them hisses like a snake just before shutdown.

    Any ideas before I rip into it further? back light ccfl bulbs in lcds, their troubleshooting and replacement is kind of new territory for me.

    Samsung P2250W Hissing (Newbie)
    by Lisa Su
    I've been using this monitor for last few years.

    Symptom started by OSD menu popping on and off randomly by itself. So i tried to clean the touch control area with some cloth but it didn't help.

    After 20 minutes monitor started hissing from the back. And then 30-40 seconds later screen started fade off/on like as if i was turning down the brightness that's when i turned it off by power button (hissing stops) and replaced it with spare monitor.

    Today i opened up the monitor, excited to repair my first monitor (or big electronics) hoping it's a bad...

    macbook A2918, orange light off when shut off
    by mosfetratus
    When i fully shut off mac, orange light goes off and wont react to power button. I have difficult time resetting with combination "shift+control+option and power button", because it rarely works (reason unknown), when i manage to get orange light and then press power button macbook wont turn on and orange light goes off. When i hold combination with power button it turns on, and works fine if put it to sleep mode.

    Works with battery and charges, but when i shut off i get this problem.

    It had liquid spill. Board has no corrosion, keyboard is working, power button...

    Dead Thinkpad E15, hissing noise from BQ25710
    by badcappo
    Hello there, got a Thinkpad E15 on the bench, almost no vital signs. Only things: Power button white LED flashes several times when USB-PD gets connected (number of flashes varies from three up to twelve times, sometimes no reaction at all). Battery charge indicator LED stays orange. Most interesting is hissing / whining sound from Battery Charge Controller IC BQ25710 on the keyboard side of the main pcb. Board fuses tested and intact, no shorts found so far. BQ25710 is also the only thing on the board to become warm in thermal image (below 70 °C). Thanks for any hint.

    HANNSG Hi221 -- 2 secs to black feat. CCFL flicker & "burn" marks on power board
    by ttmi100x
    Greetings everyone,


    I have a HANNSG Hi221 monitor that exhibits two seconds to black issues (backlight goes off, display is still on as confirmed by shining a flashlight on it) with some additional oddities...


    The monitor failed on me with a standard "2 seconds to black" some time ago prompting me to initially replace most of the electrolytic capacitors (some of them were bulging/leaking).
    Things kinda sorta worked for a night, then the problem returned along with some flickering and "buzzing" noises.

    Upon closer inspection...
