    EMAX monitor overheating?

    Got an emax monitor that seems to overheat. I'll turn it on and it will work for a while, then it will go blank. I'll leave it off for 15 minutes and it will start working again after it's cooled down.

    I've taken it apart and everything looks ok. no visably popped caps on either board. Since it's a heat issue, i'm thinking it's one of the mosfets possibly? Any ideas on how to proceed?

      The unhelpful comment: Use the classic troubleshooting approach. Find the bad part, replace it.

      Trying to be helpful; it's unlikely that it is a mosfet. It is much more likely that the problem is on the logic card. I would suspect the processor, but it could also be one of the voltage regulators.

      The classic approach to identifying the problem - hot and cold. Use a hair dryer or heat gun to see if heating a component will speed up the failure. Use freeze spray to see if cooling a component will delay the failure.

      For a number of reasons, both health and personal, I will no longer be active on this board. Any PMs asking for assistance will be ignored.

      Never be afraid to try something new. Remember, amateurs built the ark. Professionals built the Titanic.

          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...

          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...
