    Sony 24" monitor Dying

    The monitor is an OEM from HP, model A7217A (same guts as a Sony GDM-FW900).

    Anyway, I was wondering if anyone knew if they were prone to flyback issues. Occasionally, the display goes out of focus, will hold like that for about 30 seconds or so, then I hear a SNAP come from the back (like an arc in the spark gap) and it comes back into focus. I haven't opened it yet, its not fun to disassemble...... I'm fearing the CRT is dying, but maybe I'll be luckier and its just a flyback dying... If anyone has some input, I'd be appreciative.

      take the back off and when it goes out of focus tap the crt neck with a screwdriver handle.bet it snaps.

          Most sony (and rebranded sony) failures I've seen are bad solder joints... everywhere.

              HannStar Hanns-G HC194d LCD monitor repair
              by momaka
              Normally, I never post repairs this quick after I do them, because… I am usually very slow. But today, I’m making an exception here. Why? No idea. Perhaps only because the repair details are still “fresh” in my head… which is ironic, given this is a 16 year old monitor that hardly anyone will care about today. It is new to me, though. I picked it up last November from someone on my local Craigslist. It wasn’t very close to where I live, but was close to a family friend that I had to go visit anyways. So after watching the posting on Craigslist for a few weeks and seeing it getting...

              Sony BVM1410PM (CRT Monitor) - Coil Choke Replacement
              by FZG
              Hello there, helpful forum people!

              I am in the process of fixing an old (ca. 1990) Sony BVM1410PM CRT monitor and need some help. The PSU board of this monitor had failed and I had to replace quite a few capacitors and other parts but now - with my limited knowledge - I ran into a wall.

              On the board there is a coil choke that has failed (tested with inductance meter) and I don´t know what to replace it with. According to the device´s service manual the part in question is a "Coil, Choke 525 uH (Sony P/N: 1-459-643-11)".

              The original part...

              LG 23MP55HQ LED Monitor turns off after a few seconds or flickers.
              by Rick_1234
              Good evening, gentlemen.

              I have a problem with my monitor. It turns off after a few seconds or flickers. Shining a flashlight on the screen doesn't show any image, so I guess it's not the "2 seconds to dark" I read in the forum.

              To turn it back on, I have to press the power button twice. Then after a few seconds it turns off again or flickers. See video.

              Wise Wing F199 19'' LCD monitor - recapped
              by momaka
              Looking through my repair pictures and notes, it's been a long time since I posted anything in the LCD monitors section. So here goes that.

              I'm dedicating this thread to one of the very first LCD monitors I repaired (if not the first one), which was more than 10 years ago now. The monitor is a Wise Wing, model F199. It's a 19” CFL-backlit LCD. I got it for free off of Craigslist in 2009 from a guy, who said he bought it for cheap from Wallmart and the monitor worked only for a little less than 2 years before quitting.

              When I saw the Craigslist post, I wasn't...
