Re: 2 seconds to black on FPD2485W.
I just use the irons from Radio Shack. I know that's probably blasphemy on this board but they work for me!Leave a comment:

Re: 2 seconds to black on FPD2485W.
I'm using the caps from the eBay auction I posted in the OP. I'm going to grab a better iron now. I'm used to much more delicate work so my irons are very low wattage.Leave a comment:

Re: 2 seconds to black on FPD2485W.
What wattage soldering iron should I be using to get these capacitors out and resoldered? I have a 15W iron that I usually use for electronics but it is not melting the solder in the existing joints.Leave a comment:

Yep, mine was manufactured in 2006. I am replacing all the capacitors on the power board today. If it doesn't work I will post some pictures. There are two capacitors on the inverter board as well. Could those be the issue?Leave a comment:

2 seconds to black on FPD2485W.
Hello, I have what seems to be a very common problem on this monitor. Upon turning on, I get either the gateway logo or my desktop for a moment, then black. The buttons and speaker all function as if the monitor were working.
I apologize as this probably sounds like a very newbie question, but I'm not sure which board is bad. It seems to be either the power board or inverter board, but which is the likely culprit? I bought this ebay auction:
